Anna Nicole's Bodyguard Suffers Heart Attack

Posted Oct 18th 2007 4:40PM by TMZ Staff

Big Moe -- Anna Nicole Smith's longtime bodyguard -- has suffered a heart attack and stroke, according to the National Enquirer. Moe is the one who dialed 911 after his wife found Anna unconscious on the floor of her Hard Rock Hotel room on the day she died.

As the Enquirer reports, Maurice Brighthaupt, 38, recently had a "mild heart attack and stroke," say his doctors, and a source tells the tab that Moe's "blood pressure is still sky high" and that the saga of Anna's death and its aftermath is "destroying him."

Big Moe worked for Anna for four years, and was a pallbearer at her funeral.

136. I saw Big Moe on Access Hollywood last night giving an interview telling more lies. This man along with Howard Stern and the rest of their gang stood around and did nothing so he's not a saint and only cared about his job. I've never heard of anyone having a heart attack and a stoke at the same time so I was suspicious of that story. What I found out is that a Houston Rapper by the name of Big Moe died of a heart attack on October 14, so i think this story is about him and not Big Moe in the Bahamas. The only thing that's stressing that Big Moe is the lies they're all getting caught up in.

138. 131. Howie trying to keep his witnesses in line filed what? about the Will today in court? What an arse. Trying to temp them with money again you slime ball. The promise of Millions to keep Larry on on your team. Greedy hoe that he is. Leave Moe alone and stop with the false promises. Anna waited how many years for this false ship to come in. You are a clown. a grifter trying to keep your creditors away by the hint of money you will never see, an case you will never win. Didn't Mr. Hatten say you wanted him to kill P Marshall? Thinking his wife would just give in and settle this thing. Ain"t gonna happen you putrid piece of trash.

Posted at 1:59PM on Oct 19th 2007 by Howard has file what in court?

Maybe you should look up just who Hatten is MR hollywood drug dealer and he even brags about it and wants to write a book.So who in the world would believe him As for Moe don't really know what happened there but letters from attorneys are can seem to be a threat.The will just says Dannielynn should be sole heir and have a trust set up for her. Not exactly a promise of any money. First moe and his wife said ANS was in bed now suddenly she was found on the floor. What gives with this turn around . Can we believe anyone in this mess.

139. Sure the man had a "mild heart attack and stroke" and his "blood pressure is still sky high" . He is living with the guilt of what really happened in that hotel room. Spill it Big Moe!!! The truth will set you free!!!

Elizabeth, it is such a relief to encounter other sensible people such as youself, on this TMZ site.

I believe the poor guy cracked under the tremendous guilt he is now feeling for being a traitor. I never thought he was capable of being bribed in order to benefit financially. Hopefully, he will realize it just is not worth it!

Moe, if you read this, your behavior is shameful!

143. 133. MY wish is that Howard and MOE,talk out there problems,try and keep ,what friendship they had,this whole mess is not easy on the people that loved ANNA,which shows you how much virgie cared,she has fixed that ugly face up(did not help)gone to a book party that trashes her daughter,and enjoyed making money,off her daughters dead body.

How refreshing to read intelligent comments on this site! It is so rare.

144. the first time I saw it posted that Moe had a heart attack was on the National Enquirer site. I don't think that any of the reputable networks have covered it on TV so probably is NOT true.

145. I do not believe that ANS had been dead for several hours or days before help was called. Paramedics and EMT's are professionals. they would not have intubated and done CPR on someone who had been dead that long.

Besides, wouldn't rigor mortis and livor mortis have set in by then, making the jaw impossible to get open?

I'm not buying it. I think she may have been dead when HKS left the room and he knew it or maybe he gave her the meds and wanted to get out of the way BEFORE she died. there are a lot of unanswered questions.

Moe knows the answers and he needs to tell the whole truth NOW!

149. Happy Thanksgiving, Moe, Tas, and Family!

Hopefully, this nightmare will be over sooner rather than later! Moe, please don't be depressed....just tell the absolute microscopic truth as that is the greatest dignity you can give your friend and former client, Anna Nicole!

Sadly, you have been stabbed in the back (just like many others) but you have become all the wiser of those who have betrayed you and your wife.
