Anna Nicole Inquest -- Daniel Did Drugs

Posted Mar 17th 2008 6:51PM by TMZ Staff

Larry Birkhead has just testified in the Bahamas in the inquest involving the death of Daniel Smith, Anna Nicole's son. Some of the testimony about drugs is pretty shocking.

Birkhead testified that in April 2006, Anna realized some of her Methadone was missing in her Studio City home. Birkhead said Anna had surveillance cameras in the house, checked them and found video proof that Daniel and his buddies were the culprits.

While Birkhead was under oath, he was asked about statements he made to the cops back in 2006, when he was at war with Anna. He had told police he saw Howard K. Stern smoke pot with Anna and Daniel. During his testimony, Birkhead said he was not completely clear on what he saw.

UPDATE: Birkhead also told cops Anna had given Daniel Ecstasy, but on the stand Birkhead said he couldn't say this actually happened.

Birkhead said Daniel's personality completely changed between January 2006 and May. He saw Daniel throw a TV through a window. Daniel often stayed out all night long and Anna was worried.

Also, Daniel was admitted to an L.A. hospital for misuse of valium in mid July, 2006.

Howard K. testifies tomorrow.

The real truth finally prevailed. We knew Daniel abused drugs, so nothing new here. Very sad.

19. If Larry is now telling the truth, then he lied to the police and should be prosecuted for that! Which is it Larry. Your first memories are usually more accurate and if you are now telling the truth (which I do not believe imo) then why all the delays in this Inquest?

26. Question is where did the methodone come from that killed Daniel?

Posted at 3:46PM on Mar 17th 2008 by This needs to be answered

27. Birkhead is about as believable as a three dollar bill.

Way to go TMZ. HK$ & Co. have you by the short ones too. Pathetic.

Don't expect to see any threads on this site that even remotely hint that the hands of HK$ are less than pristine.

New blog needed ASAP. This ones doomed to be the playground of $ternies who worship a lazy @ss grifter, thief, drug supplier, drug pusher and likely murderer of two individuals.

Puke.

Some people should be ashamed of themselves for blaming someone who did not deserve the blame.

And you know who you mean, nasty people you are.

Grieve? He'll be rejoycing that he got away with murder.
(Kerry, I don't believe this is really you)

Posted at 3:48PM on Mar 17th 2008 by He'll get his, just wait

30. Isn't it strange that Larry Birkhead is changing his story now that he & Howard are partners?
