61. according to the article, "Under the will and the laws of inheritance, Dannielynn would get all her mom's assets. Nonetheless, we're told the house, the boat and other assets are being discussed. It is unclear how Stern might lay claim to the items in question. Nonetheless, we're told that's precisely what he wants."

"we're told . . . are being discussed" ..... hmmmmmmmm ...... i wonder who in any such negotiation would reveal such things?

anyway, as my grandma used to say, koward doesnt have a leg to stand on as the basis for any such claim. it's the same as saying, "I'll give you back the property I stole as long as you agree to pay me what i ask. (debra opri is waaaaaaay to savvy to let her client go for anything this stupid.)

it's a form of extortion, and again i must wonder what "footage" howard has stored in a safety deposit box somewhere.

62. It's always been about money with that low life idiot. If Howard K. Scum was the father of Dannielynn, then there is no doubt (even as an infant) she would have a huge nose like his, a protruding chin, and show signs of insecurity and gold-digger in her. This absolutely frikkin' amazes me. I can't believe that Anna Nicole, even at her horniest and complete drug induced depression, would ever be that desperate to have sex with him. I can't believe for a second that she would even kiss him on the lips! Ugh! My stomach turns just thinking about it. Of course, he loved her - that was all he had - he made and revolved his life around her, he enabled her to do drugs even while pregnant, filmed her during her darkest moments, and now it's come back to haunt him - all for her money. He lied about being the biological father, and now he says he'll take money to go away. Good thing he won't end up with the baby ... he would have no idea what to do with her - he would only see dollar signs in Dannielynn's eyes. What an absolute moron!

63. Howard you can come stay with me, I have plenty of money for you to spend and I will treat you way better than Anna did.

64. Isn't the Bermuda Triangle out there somewhere? I say pack up Stern and that low-life "mother" Vergie and drop them both into it. They are parasites of the worst order.

65. I'm sick of reading comments about what ANNA wished. SHE WAS IMPAIRED BEYOND BELIEF at the hands of this loser.

KAPOOR and STERN date back to Berkeley where they did their undergrad, he was not picked out of the yellow pages. They should both go to jail and then to hell.

If Virgie gets the body she has dibs on the estate in Texas, NOT Birkhead as custodial parent. The WILL is a CROCK of SH*T it won't hold up, it's BALONEY!!!!

66. .......Jail/Prison sounds good to me....He has knowingly lied to everyone including the courts in regards to Dannielyn. He needs to go to jail/prison, come "out" again.
And Mr. Birkhead....Change this childs name, give her a clean slate in life. You owe nothing to the memory of Anna-Nicole. Make up stories for her that will make her "mommy" a mommy. Anna-Nicole only picked this name because she already new how to spell it. Cruel? The truth can sometimes hurt!
It is like Stern is "exchanging" her for cash....Tell him to get a job....Learn a trade in prison, and grow up!
The NERVE!!!!

67. I thought it was ILLEGAL TO SELL A BABY!!! Howie you are the lowest trash on this earth. Go ahead and SELL to her REAL FATHER. Karma is just waiting to get you like you got Anna & Daniel. You deserve NOTHING!! You used Anna as long as you knew her and it shows what kind of upbringing you had to chase after her money after she's dead. Your mother must be ashamed of you, and the lies that your sister told for you. It will be interesting to watch what Karma has in store for you.

68. I understand from a business perspective that Birkhead would be better off cutting his losses now with $tern, HOWEVER, $tern knowingly committed fraud when he even verbally admitted he was the Dad to Dannylynn, but more importantly I wonder now if Birkhead's attorney didn't find that glitch in the birth document, would $tern be so willing now to make a deal? Think not. Also, it seems $tern doesn't want to be further bothered with having to deal with the pending court case regarding Howard Marshall's estate because at best it is still a more iffy situation. Instead right now, he gets the boat, paid for probably, the new digs down in the Bahama's and bascially a clean slate from it all. I wouldn't want to give him a dime but Birkhead would probably be better off just getting $tern out of his life, for good, hopefully!

69. What a complete waste of space.......this man is scum. I feel for Larry I hope he gets his child back soon and kicks Howards ass back to hell. Howard is a unemployed money hungry scumbag. End of story.

70. So basically Howie "I really should be in jail" Stern is holding that baby hostage. He wants a ransom paid. He is terrible.
He is a fungus, he WILL NEVER go away. Where is a good fungicide when one needs one?

Posted at 11:56AM on Feb 27th 2007 by Howie "the fungus" Stern will never go away

71. stern should get nothing he is part of nothing anna paid for everthing he had no money. why should he get money for helping kill her??he stood by &did nothing to stop her he fed the stuff to her what he should get is a long prison term. nothing that happened is by chance he planned everything its money money money how long do you think this babys life span is with him??? 2 down 1 to go greed stops at nothing.why pick on annas mom?? anna hated anyone who told her she was a junkie and tried to help her bury anna & son in texas together ssstern won't be around the bahammas much longer so why leave them there with no family to pay respect to them? must be real love on the moms part to keep fighting to bring them home

72. Is any one suprised by this??? Howard K Stern is a snake. He kept Anna druged all the time and told her all kinds of crap. He is the new evil. I would not be suprised at all if he had something to do with her son and her death. I would give him anything but the money to make him g away, all that money and work that Anna did belongs to her daughter. Larry is going to need that and he deserves it also to raise her and take care of her. Anna did all that work and being a spokesperson, not Howard ugly mug face. Howard should be lucky he is just not in prison yet.

73. The facts are that Howard has acted as her personal attorney for over ten years. He has a contingency agreement that will pay him 6% of any settlement granted from the Marshall estate. This was testified to in the Florida court. He negotiated all her entertainment deals for the last ten years for compensation from the contingency agreement's potential payment. The last lawsuit I was a party to had a very similiar contingency agreement, only my attorney's received one-third of the settlement.

I laugh at the story of negotiations with Larry Birkhead. He has no money and he has no right to her property. His potential daughter does, but the trustee of Anna Nicole's estate manages her daughter's finances. The last know will of Anna Nicole names her attorney, Howard as the trustee.

TMZ, do you write these inflammatory blurbs so you can sit back and watch the out of control reactions of the readers. The continuous slander is truly amazing. Think that will bring you more viewership of your site??? Shame on you.

Let these two people involved in this tragedy work it out. Let the woman who paid with her life have some of her wishes honored. Enablers are usually people who are generally well meaning, but set up circumstances that allow those with addictions to continue to pursue their addictions. That is not a murderer, or many parents would be viewed as such when they have been unable to get their children to turn away from a life of substance abuse. Anna Nicole and Daniel have responsibility for their choices.

I don't know these people and it is ashame that we and they have let their lives be degraded to sport and media cash cows.

74. Howie..you don't need money..you'll be dead soon....you should try to do what is right and save yourself...you know the world has lots of crazy people and they are gunning for you now.

75. howard stood by anna for years and did everything for her...for all purposes, her common law husband.

the problem is that anna nor howard thought much into the future to make sure howard would be taken care of in case anything happened to anna.

women marry rich men all the time, if a man devotes his life to a rich woman,he's seen as some sort of leach.
