Judge decides all counts will go to the jury in Anna Nicole Smith case

Interesting.....good luck to the jury in deliberation. I personally feel that this case was based more on circumstanstial evidence and the "feelings" of the prosecutors more so than anything. I think the jury is going to have a hard time.

Now, if Anna Nicole Smith was alive, would she be charged as well? She chose to take these drugs...

I think Howard Sterns guilt runs a lot deeper than just prescription drugs this guy was a dirty money grubber.

"Where is the evidence Judge Perry said, that Stern knew it was wrong to have medications in multiple names?" How about herein lies the conspiracy? As an attorney, how could Stern NOT have known that is wrong to have medications in multiple names? Anna Nicole was Stern's payday and he exploited her to the hilt for years, and should be punished along with Kapoor and Eroshevich. At the very least they should lose their professional licenses.

Hmmmm I just don't understand how the defense can argue that these medicines / drugs were ordered and or given to Anna Nicole Smith under alternate names was to protect Anna's privacy.........I was under the impression that the Doctor / pharmacist confidentiallity rule would have protected Anna's privacy. Unless information was sold to a news / magazine agency, who would know and or care ?

Not too much has been said about what Anna Nicole was going through when she appeared "drugged" during the last part of her life.
She had suddenly lost her only son, while she was pregnant with her daughter. She was mourning as anyone would be. She had dreams about her son at night....she was in agony. Howard loved Anna Nicole and was willing to be a father figure to the baby and he supported her through her grief.
Leave this man alone....he has been through enough.

I'm not an attorney or a doctor, but even I know it is against the law to obtain prescriptions under alternate names and addresses. I hope the jurers know this also, and do not give them sympathy votes like the judicial system does for idiots like Paris, Lindsey and "good ole Charlie Sheen"

It's obvious how somebody acts when they have been drugged..... Did anyone see the video's of Anna or was it just me????

I agree with the others who fully believe that Stern and these doctors knowingly participated in a conspiracy to procure drugs under multiple names. It seems like a no-brainer to me.

I think alot of people do not understand addiction and how your body gets used to the drugs and you need higher and higher doses to get relief from symptoms. She was kicked down by her late husband's son and had been in and out of court for years in that case, I'm sure she needed medications for depression and anxiety for that alone. Nothing has been said about the conditions she had that required narcotics, It is very easy to take too much just trying to get rid of the pain. I know in my heart she was hurting and very sad over her son's death and conflicted with the joy of a new baby. She was even trying to put the biological father out of her life and begin a new one with Stern. I believe he loved her very much and lives everyday knowing he got the meds for her at her request never realizing she would take enough at one time to overdose. This is a tragedy not a conspiracy or murder. All the lawyers invloved are trying to get as much as they can from her estate, they are the ones who should be ahamed of themselves and the authorities too, there must be some money in it for them too.
