Howard K. to Hire Pit Bull Lawyer to Nail Naysayers

Lin Wood and Howard K. SternTMZ has learned Howard K. Stern has had telephone conferences with Lin Wood -- the lawyer who represented Patsy and John Ramsey -- and will hire him to sue members of the media who have accused Stern of committing homicide and other offenses.

We're told a retainer agreement has not yet been signed, but Stern and Wood have agreed in principle that the uber-aggressive lawyer would file various lawsuits against certain members of the media.

TMZ contacted Ron Rale, Anna Nicole's lawyer, a named executor in her will and Stern's friend, who said, "I will confirm that retention of Lin Wood is an imminent possibility." Rale added, "Certain members of the media might want to think about mitigating damages."

In the Ramsey case, Wood filed numerous defamation claims against media outlets, including Time, Court TV, FOX News and others, for pointing a guilty finger at his clients.

19. I guess sleazeball Howard K. Stern can't get any sleazier, he went on some newsprogram in the Bahamas yesterday night and told the host that he was going to sell pictures of Daniel's death so that Anna can "finally have some peace". Here's the clip on youtube:

24. Stern's sister told The Insider that Stern's parents are paying all his legal fees. Yeah right. Probably his new shoes and underwear too.

28. LOL....WOW...he is really pulling out all of his 'tricks' now........what happened to free speech.....EVERBODY has the right to think he's guilty .....and a right to say it out loud...its an OPINION.....these opinions are based on HKS actions before and after ANS death......

29. I'm glad he's fighting back. HKS may not be perfect, but what the media has done to him is horrible. He needs to go after Virgie's lawyer O'quinn also.

30. Give me a break no one went the media more than HK$. He is his worst enemy. His life is over no one wants him in this country. If he was a smart laywer he would have seen what a train wreck ANS was and at least left or distanced himself after Daniels murder I mean suicide.
All he would have to do not to look guilty is to get the test and when he came out bad mouthing ANS's mom in the beginning it made him look bad.
I don't know or care really whether he is a murder but I know for sure he is a scum bag and disgrace to humanity. I will never go to the Bahamas because of him and all the bs they are letting him get away with.

Why did he stop the inquest if he is so innocent?
