Howard K. Stern Arrested; Investigation Into Anna Nicole Smith's Death Continues - Page 2
The California Department of Justice, Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement, has been conducting an investigation into Kapoor since 2007. He has also been under investigation by the Medical Board for his prescription practices. Thirteen days before Smith gave birth to Dannielynn he wrote a methadone prescription for her under an alias, Michelle Chase. Under California law, it's illegal to prescribe a controlled substance under a false name.
Howard, for his part, continued to protest his innocence:
Howard K. Stern just released this statement to TMZ: "Dr. Kapoor never prescribed Anna Nicole medication in my name — and that is what the Medical Board will find out."
Here's my question...I wonder if this will somehow tie into the death of Anna Nicole's son Daniel. If you remember, a Bahamian jury decided that Daniel died of an accidental overdose...but one of the drugs found in his system was methadone, and Anna Nicole had caught him stealing it from her. If it is found that she had methadone illegally, provided by this doctor and Howard, then would that somehow figure into Daniel's death as well?
When Anna Nicole died, there were 11 prescriptions found in Anna Nicole’s room, and all were authorized by Eroshevich, who had also traveled to Florida with Anna Nicole. Also, more than 600 pills, including more than 450 muscle relaxants, were missing from bottles of medication that were at the most five weeks old.
I've always wanted to believe Howard was telling the truth; but I guess that, as most things in Hollyweird turn out to be, it was just wishful thinking. More on this story as it develops, and you can find GlossLip's archive of Anna Nicole stories here.
