Virgie Arthur -- NOT Mother of the Year

Virgie ArthurWe're told Virgie Arthur will be fighting for custody of Dannielynn, whether Birkhead is the dad or not. But when it comes to Arthur's track record in child rearing, it's pretty clear she won't win any awards.

Rewind to 1993. Arthur's son, Donald Ray Hart Jr, then 21-years-old, was busted in Conroe, Texas. But it was anything but an ordinary arrest. Hart was charged with aggravated kidnapping, along with three friends. The victim -- a 33-year-old paraplegic. The abducted woman watched in horror as her kidnappers waived a butcher knife in her direction, and discussed plans to murder her. An informant's tip foiled the plot.

Hart pleaded guilty and was sentenced to six years in prison.

But that's not all. Hart was also convicted of theft -- he pled guilty to stealing a bunch of livestock.

By the way, Arthur's daughter, Anna Nicole, also hated her. So is Arthur the best candidate for custody? You be the judge.

601. No matter what you all think of Vergie or anything she has done ,where is your compassion? I'm sure most of you are mothers ! She has lost her daughter and grandson within 5 months of each other ! I can't imagine having to go through that !

604. Virgie , God is on your side. You will get your Anna home to Texas, your grandson,
and your grandbaby. I claim it , in the name of Jesus.

The Jews have scales over there eyes, they dont believe in Jesus Christ, and only 144 thousand are going to heaven. the rest are going to hell for not claiming Jesus as the Christ.

605. All this woman wants is money. I personally hope she does not even get visitation rights. Larry was going to let her see the baby, but once she figured out that visitation doesn't get her any money, then she turned on him and decided she wants custody, aka custody of Anna's money. She says she "loved" Anna, but if that was the kind of "love" my mother gave me, I probably would have been as messed up as her daughter and the rest of her family is as well. Hopefully Virgie gets no part of the baby or the money.

606. #580 #606, are you guys crazy???? Everyone knows that many abused children, such as Anna, turn to drugs as a way to cope with abuse. Virgie has had 5 husbands, what an example to her daughter. And Anna said that her step-father had sexually abused her, no wonder she didn't want her daughter to be with her mother. People don't just quit speaking to their families for no reasons and steal cows for no reason.

607. Tell Hollywood execs that if they ever plan on filming another "Addams Family" movie, shave Virgie's head and you'll have the new Uncle Fester.

609. This article is such a spin on what the truth is! She is planning on working out something with LB to spend time with and help raise the baby. Not that she will be in her life on a minute by minute basis but as a GRANDMA! Just like she has said from the beginning -- I want my granddaughter to be safe and just be her grandma. Now that HK$ should be out of the picture if all goes well that will actually happen. Let me see ... ANS wanted LB out and VA out (in her oh so obvious drugged state of mind) but it is okay for LB to be in the baby's life cuz he's cute and cuddly and not VA cuz she is in her 60's and has extra weight and wrinkles. Good Lord Give Me A BreaK!!!!!! VA and LB will hopefully allow DL to grow up in a drug and alcohol free lifestyle. HK$ appeared that he was doing just as many as she was if you went by what his popping eyeballs looked like prior to her dealth in all those interviews. Sorry but drugs and alcohol shorten a life span -- not just in years but also in the number of relationships you are able to maintain during your lifetime. Just a thought. And no adult should be held accountable for what an adult child makes as a decision. If you even think oh my child would never grow up to act like that --------------------------------------- Just wait and see. What you least expect can happen to the very best family. Go ask any one from a school shooting, a parent of an inmate on dealth row, a parent of nearly anyone in jail, do you really think that every person in jail or prison did what they did cuz Mom was too hard on them? No it was because they wanted to make a choice. A choice they made. A choice that had consequences good or bad but none the less a choice they made!

610. If "Grandma" thought Anna was incompitent on drugs for at lease 12 years while her grandson was young, why did she not seek custidy of that child. I bet it was that her grandson did not come with a big pot of gold. Anna had her reasons to hate Vergie, I think the world can now see why.

612. why oh why didnt Virgie fly to the Bahamas when Anna needed her? Howard hung up on her? At least Anna would of known her mama was trying. When she was pounding on the door. Oh my God...poor Anna, she knew she was not anything to her mother but a product of her current husband at the time... sad

613. This is unkind to say to Ms. Arthur. I have to say this is Birkhead and Stern's problem. TMZ is a trashy story. It is just a pack full of liars. I doubt it that I don't think Dannielynn is favored as Birkhead. But, that the Bahamas court ruling. Birkhead still need to growing up like a man, be mature and show some respect. He looked so much like a "kid" and acted so silly. This is going to be a sad stituation for Dannielynn when she grow up and find all these things happen to her in the past about the baby custody, who's the daddy?, her mother, etc.. She will find out about it when she grow up. Poor child. Glad that the news media begin to faded away some this week and I think everybody is tired of hearing about it. Most of the people don't like these frenzy news meda and they don't care about the late Anna Nicole Smith. This is a "Hollywood gossip". I don't feel sorry for Anna Nicole. Anna Nicole is not very popular in Hollywood because she does not have talented like the late Marilyn Monroe, the late Eva Gabor, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and name few actresses. Anna Nicole has completed ruin her life by using drugs and alcohols. She is just a Playboy playmate and was married to a wealthy man, the late Mr. Marshall. I know that Anna Nicole really love her son Daniel. This is sad.

614. Lay off Harvey, tmz is telling it like is. Vergie is money hungry and she just wants every thing she can get. She is so busy always putting the blame on her daughters use of drugs ,never her parenting !. No mother should get on tv and say the things she said about her daughter ,if its true or not . Why didnt she try to see Anna or Daniel ? Where was she when the baby was born ,Anna said she cried for her mother . Vergie deserves everything she gets ,because she was not there when her daughter and grandson needed her ? Now she tries to act like mother of the year. And HKS is only doing what Anna wanted because he loved her so much ,he lost every thing .

615. I'm totally in favor of Larry raising his child. I would think it a very dificult task for a women of vergie's age to take on such a task.Given the family baggage, It doesn't seem like an ideal setting for a baby either. I understand that.But I still maintain that Vergie was Anna's Mom,a women, who did the best she could raising her wild daughter. Id like to know why it's acceptable for everyone to make millions from this whole fiasco even those responsible directly or indirectly for the two deaths,yet so horrible for Anna's family to make money. Eveyone should has a right to make money in a system that makes it almost impossible just to exist.Just respect Vergie, Give her the rights to visit with her Grandchild. Enough with the disrespectful remarks. Don't you have relatives?? Mothers? Grandmothers? Don't assist in revenge from a person who's hands will never be clean.
