586. Tonite on Geraldo at Large, G. Ben Thompson's attny in the Bahamas said HKS must go. DL, Virgie and LB can stay at the Horizons. How can Larry afford to pay the utilities, much less the mortage? Oh I get it. He will sell photos once he gets DL. Not to ET. They don't like him after he sued them, along with Ashley Judd. They all may love this baby, but I think money is clouding their vision.

587. I believe these items being sold were given to someone to sell under a differant name. Until they give the name and investigate the buyer, I will not believe they sold for that much. Someone is trying to start a buying frenzey on Anna's name. How else do it? E-Bay. Once her items start selling. All her personal items will pop up as throw away items to the highest bidder. Do not fall for this gimmick. HKS & friends are trying to make money off her. As for Ford Shelly and his family. They cared for Anna and tried to help her, she took advantage of that help once Howard got her back on drugs. Then he filmed it$$$$. Ford took the items out of the house as he knew what Howard was doing. Living off of and drugging Anna so he could do what he wanted. Most items were turned into the Police Dept in N.C. He knew his daughter witnessed Howard filming a drugged Anna while pregnant, he wanted to show Howard for the Imoral man he is.
Also listening to Nancy Grace. They described the drug that may have assisted in Anna's death. I believe they said it mixed with other drugs was used years ago as the date rape.....what does that tell you? Stern doped her up so she would have sex with him or other men. Remember Anna had stated in her Diary that she did not like sex...Odd? Was Stern and the Good Dr Chris E. Mixing up there own drug to sale? There is more going on here than we all know.
As for Dr. Phil He should have ask Bonnie S. If Howard loved the baby. Why did he help drug Anna and video her while she was pregnant. Once Howard pays for his actions all those videos should be destroyed so that child never sees her mother in that condition. All Howard did was to degrade Anna? When did he ever do something nice for her and pay for it out of his pocket???
All of Anna's belongings should be kept for Dannielynn, except for those negative videos.

588. HKS did have a job. It was waiting on ANS hand and foot and doing her every bidding. If he hadn't she would have kicked him out and got somebody else to do it. Anyway he was also her lawyer and she evidently really needed one since everybody and his brother seemed to be suing her or trying to. Did you ever try to make somebody go to the hospital when they refused to? Well, I have. My husband got encephalitis and was running a high fever and out of his head and I tried to make him let me take him to the Emergency Room. He said No so I called 911 and when they got there he fought them and ran out of the house and down the street. They thought he was drunk and said they weren't going to bother with him, but I begged them and finally got them to call the police and chase him down. He ended up in Intensive care for a week completely out of his head. He survived ANS would never have forgiven someone if they did that to her. She might have survived, but whoever forced her to get help and face the media would have been tossed out as soon as she was able to do it. Sometimes you can't make somebody do what they don't want to do, no matter how sick they are. It is especially hard if they have always been the BOSS and always got their way like ANS was. ANS refused to get medical help because she didn't want the paparazzi to start in on her like they always did and nobody could make her do what she didn't want to do. I can just see someone trying to tell ANS that she was going to the hospital whether she wanted to or not. She'd have told them to get out just like she did with LB when he didn't follow her every command.

590. Ben Thompson is paying all the bill on the house now the power was cut of on them before the baby was born but Thompson turned it back on on account of the baby and is still paying all the utlities on the house from what I understand Stern is a squatter money or no money Thompson is from here in Myrtle Beach and down here we try to be honest helpful people, that often get a bum rap he and his family just happen to be the ones to get mixed up in this mess

591. I find it hard to believe anyone can be as generous as G. Ben. He should rid himself of the whole mess. I can understand him wanting to let DL stay, but hopefully only until her bio dad gets her. LB can't afford to buy that home, and stay there with her. I bet he, Ben, wished he'd never met Anna. But he is to blame also. What fool say's, "You can have my mansion, and pay me back when you can"..Of course she took him up on it. If Anna, and HKS had any decency, especially Stern, they would have paid him with a check from the hospital photos of DL, Danny and Anna..The ones ET paid them for, and photos after that one. They had no intention of paying him. In Anna's words it was a gift. What a gift!

592. Did anyone on here happen to see on the ishowardksternamurder website, that there is a source who has told them.........that there are large sums of money being transferred from the Bahamas to California and on to Canada, but they don't know who is on the recieving end yet? Money Laundering? Is Howard planning a run to Canada? If so with or with out Dannielynn.

Why won't they take that baby away from him? How many people are involved in this, and might they be paying MOE to stay in Canada until after the inquest and maybe sending him money.

They should be freezing all assets and take the baby away NOW !!!!!

593. KNOW WHAT I'D LIKE TO SEE OUT OF ALL THIS? NANCY GRACE SHOOT HERSELF IN THE HEAD.

594. YOU PEOPLE ACT LIKE HOWARD HELD A GUN TO HER HEAD AND MADE HER TAKE DRUGS. WHAT A DOPE YOU ARE.( PARDON THE PUN). UNLESS YOU'VE LIVED WITH ONE(AN ADDICT) YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING. I HAVE AND LET ME TELL YOU IT DOES NOT MATTER WHO IS AROUND THEM, MOTHER, FATHER, BROTHER, SISTER, WIFE, SON, OR DAUGHTER- IF THEY WANT IT THEY'LL GET IT. IF THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY, THEY WILL DEMAND YOURS, SELL ANYTHING OF VALUE, AND EVEN GIVE YOUR CAR AWAY TO DRUG DEALERS. UNLESS YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH IT ,SHUT YOUR FACE ABOUT THE DRUGS.

595. Marie:

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you are NOT an authority on addicts, so sit and spin!

596. G Ben Thompson and his son in law are not the fine upstanding men they may seem to be. I live in SC and know that their reputations are not squeaky clean. They didn't help Anna get that house out of the goodness of their hearts. G Ben took advantage of her sexually and that is probably the only reason that he had to help her in the f irst place. The son in law broke into her house as soon as she was pronounced dead and stole yes STOLE her personal effects including pictures that she herself had painted for her baby's room. Yes, he took them right off the wall. What use did he have for those? Maybe to SELL them? If her old diaries went for half a million, what will her personal paintings go for? The tapes he stole from her are already turning up on Greta Von Susteren's TV show. These two men may have gotten lucky and made money in real estate, but both of them have had trouble with the law and were out for their own good when they "helped" Anna. Same old story; somebody out to screw Anna in more ways than one and getting away with it.

598. I think we are going to have a wonderful week of surprizes !!!

599. Oh Heidi quit being so rude telling people to sit & spin, and they are no expert on addicts. How the hell do you know? Everyone here is entitled to their opinion, there is no need to act like a know it all queen of news. Get over yourself sister! Kindness people, kindness. The problem is not with the messsage, it's with the delivery.

600. And another thing- what Marie said IS TRUE. Addicts will do whatever it takes to get those drugs. Had HKS left her, she would have found someone else to take his place, believe it! And trust me, I've known addicts, my sister was one. They will lie, steal, cheat, gamble, prostitute, and sell their own damn soul to get what they want. And they have to decide when enough is enough, no one else can decide that for them. And many times, if you offer help, they turn their back on you. It seems you would know that, since your such the authority.
