Anna Nicole Smith’s Doctors aware of huge risks


 

In documents that have just been unsealed regarding the premature death of actress and model, Anna Nicole Smith back in 2007, it seems those responsible for prescribing the pills that eventually killed her were well aware of the risks. The Huffington Post is reporting that a Los Angeles pharmacist warned Ms. Smith’s internist that the drugs they were prescribing for the 39-year old star were “pharmaceutical suicide,” according to the evidence that has now emerged. The papers, released as part of an investigation into who is truly to blame for her untimely death, confirm that Anna Nicole’s doctor, Khristine Eroshevich and her internist, Sandeep Kapoor were warned by no less than three different pharmacists about the mixture of drugs, and the risks such a blend would inflict on their patient – yet nothing was done.

The two physicians, together with Howard K. Stern, who was both Anna’s boyfriend and her Attorney, all pleaded not guilty in May to conspiring to illegally supply controlled substances. A preliminary hearing is now scheduled for early next month and prosecutors have confirmed they plan to call both Anna’s bodyguard and Larry Birkhead, the father of Anna’s beloved daughter, Dannielynn, as State witnesses to further their case.

The papers on which this legal action will largely depend reveal that Anna’s first request for the drugs occurred on September 15th of 2006 – five days after her son, Daniel died. The order was for two types of sedative, 300 tablets of methadone, a muscle relaxant, an anti-inflammatory drug and four bottles of a very strong painkiller.

These same papers also prove that the Doctors who approved and supplied such a lethal concoction also breached their professional ethics by having sex with their patient. Attorneys for the physicians have not, so far returned calls to confirm this or comment, but the proof is contained in these papers, so the case seems quite clear.

Anna died, alone and despairing in room 607 of the Hard Rock Hotel in Hollywood, Florida on February 8th, 2007.
