Celebrity Justice
Criminal Probe Into Anna's Prescriptions

TMZ has learned the California Department of Justice (DOJ) is conducting a criminal investigation into several doctors who prescribed various medicines to Anna Nicole Smith.

Sources tell TMZ the DOJ's Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement has contacted Larry Birkhead, Big Mo (Anna's bodyguard) and others. We're told DOJ is particularly interested in two doctors -- Khristine Eroshevich and Sandeep Kapoor. TMZ broke the story that Dr. Kapoor prescribed methadone to Anna under an assumed name when she was eight months pregnant. Dr. Eroshevich ordered a virtual pharmacy of drugs for Anna, five days after her son Daniel died.

Dr. Eroshevich, who was in the Bahamas with Anna, sent the prescription wish list to Dr. Kapoor. Kapoor's attorney, Ellyn Garofalo, told TMZ "Dr. Kapoor declined the request for prescriptions. He would never prescribe that combination of drugs, in such large dosages, to any patient."

The Medical Board of California launched its own investigation of the two doctors earlier this year. That investigation is pending.

By the way, TMZ has learned Dr. Kapoor is in the process of having twins via a surrogate.

Perez Hilton: Little Dannilynn Turns One

"Larry 'I’m Not Gay' Birkhead emailed us the other day. The wonderfully coiffed babydaddy was upset that we misspelled his daughter’s name. It’s Dannilynn - not Dannilynne, as we had written.

Sorry about that, girlfriend.

Good ol’ Larry is planning a big ol’ birthday party for little Dannilynn in his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, next month.

The September 8th festivities will be held at the place where Birkhead and Anna Nicole Smith first met: Tricia Barnstable Brown’s Lousiville home, site to a very posh annual Kentucky Derby party..

Says Tricia, 'Something very magical will be happening at my house the first week of September, and it will be fit for a tiny little princess.'

Dannilynn will turn one, and no doubt Birkhead will use the opportunity to likely ca$h in!

17057. what ever happened to Dr E? She still living next door to DL and LB? I wonder if Howie and her still talk?

17058. How very tacky, tacky, tacky. This Kentucky woman is nothing whatsoever to Dannilynn. No one year old remembers their party. If Ms. Barnstable Brown was throwing a party for a one year old horse, it would be understandable. Or, if it was for a relative or friend but since that is not the case here, it is just plain tacky.

This is just another attempt by Larry and Howard to make money off Dannielynn and I hope it backfires on them, just like the regatta did.

The anniversary of Daniel's death is only three days later so I think any party anywhere with publicity is in the very worst taste imaginable. Will Larry be inviting Byron and his ex-gay-lover (the male model who lives in KY to this event)?

What is hilarious about this is..........when the judge write DL's name onthe blackboard, he MISSPELLED it. ROFL!

17060. Wasn't Anna's cause of death released by Dr. Perper AFTER HER FUNERAL? I'm too tired to verify that now but I think it was. Remember how he kept hinting there "was going to be a big surprise" and the toxicology reports were taking so long. Several experts said they were sure Perper knew but was delaying releasing them for some reason.

After Perper telephoning the courtroom and then going to the funeral that Howard sold to ET and the scandals that have come out about Judge Seidlin and the pot smoking one, I really wonder how much each of them were paid.

If all the information about Anna's cause of death had been known before the funeral, I wonder if it would have been filmed by ET and would Howard have given the same rude eulogy? Would Bonnie Stern have made an effort to be at least civilized to Virgie or would she have still spewn her hatred? Too bad she wasn't admitted to their mental hospital or I am surprised Dr. E didn't give Bonnie an injection right there on the spot for her obvious psychiatric condition! But, it is never too late and it is taking the authorities so long to investigate so I hope Dr. E is really stocking Bonnie's medicine cabinet with the meds she will most likely be on for as long as she lives.

Perez was being his silly self…. By misspelling it again….. It’s called humor and I tend to think he is funny. DannieLynn is the correct spelling and what HKS used in the courtroom.

BTW – Read the ‘public opinion”…looks like the positive is outweighing the negative and proving once again the inaccuracies that are posted on this board time after time on how ‘the MAJORITY’ feel about LB.

Spew hatred is an obvious psychiatric condition? Isn’t that what antinoids do all day long with conspiracy theories and posts full of nonsense ridicule of those that disagree? Why don’t you take your psychoanalysis up with the people you follow? That’s nothing compared to what the people at home were SCREAMING at their TVs when they heard what VA was trying to pull. Yes, I happen to yell at the TV during Jeopardy and football season as well.

17062. this hello person is way out there.

hell yes, its negative. its negative because it IS negative.
we didnt create it. Howard did.
you want us to come on here celebrating because howard is walking around a free man spending money from his victims that he KILLED?

the only three people around here are you three howard paid people who obviously need a paycheck real bad.

to acknowledge anything else would be to admit that you are pretty sad bunch that you cant even comprehend that 8 drugs in someone's body is eight drugs in someones body.

what dont you understand?
you believe a house a woman said she was behind in her payments is a gift?

what dont you understand?
you believe anna was just makina a joke when she said, YOU KILLED MY SON?

Posted at 4:15AM on Aug 15th 2007 by to everything there is a season---- howards season is over!

17063. The question was how much were the judges and Dr. Perper paid? How much do you think, butterfly?

Posted at 4:17AM on Aug 15th 2007 by Walter Barbera

WHY DOES HOWARD THINK A HOUSE THAT A WOMAN ADMITTED SHE WAS BEHIND IN PAYMENTS WITH IS A GIFT?

LARRY IS PLANNING A BIRTHDAY PARTY IN SEPTEMBER!
well now lets see, so far we havehad the announcement on ET three times in a row and now this further announcement.

have a birthday party in September but what is he doing today and all of August to make sure howard pays for killing daniel and anna?

Posted at 4:24AM on Aug 15th 2007 by larry's trying to shift attention from howard...we dont need to be hit over the head with a birthday announcement.....PLEASE!

17066. I think we have grown to know each other and can tell what kind of people the bloggers are. I can safely say that some I would be friends with and some I would run the other way from. But how can you really tell? And I wonder what kind of people that my children might come in contact with.

you cant really tell,even some of the ones on here who want to seem awful are not really lol and are just playing being mean,and probaly some who claim to be paragons of everything good may not be.people like to play games on the internet,doesnt really say who they really are in the world.sort of like play acting,good one day,bad the next especially on a site like this where names can be changed over and over.also I think people doing this arent crazy or dangerous,just foolin around lol

just what kind of name is that you chose to post with? this sounds deranged.

with all due respect, i believe i am among the majority who believe it is highly ridiculous to think that someone would come on here defending a murderer if they were not behind him whether paid or cult-type who simply follow because they have been smiten by their leader.

but i dont see anyone doing such a thing. Simultaneously, i do not believe people who are putting up such a fight to see there is justice for daniel and anna, dannielynn, and virgie would spend so much valuable time here because they were playing games. we do research, and we write letters to district attorneys, the bahamas tourist board and their courts. we express our outrage when we learn larry is allowing howard to sleep under the same roof as dannielynn and we let larry know it in no uncertain terms.

does it matter? it absolutely does. at the end of the day, the majority still rules.

are YOU playing games? you have time to come on here first thing in the morning for the hell of it? i could be wrong but if that is the case i believe you are the sole person who does.

Posted at 6:43AM on Aug 15th 2007 by there but by the grace of God, go I. What i refuse to take care of today could be on my doorstep tonight.

17068. are YOU playing games? you have time to come on here first thing in the morning for the hell of it? i could be wrong but if that is the case i believe you are the sole person who does.
