Anna Nicole Meets the Fuzz
Over the past month, Anna Nicole Smith has fielded visits from mourners, well-wishers and even commitment ceremony-chronicling photographers. Now she's opening her doors to another kind of guest: cops.
Bahamian police investigating the sudden death of the TrimSpa spokesmodel's 20-year-old son, Daniel, have reportedly made several visits to Smith's island home, though they continue to deny that any foul play is suspected in the death.
"I know officers have visited the house several times to speak with them about different things, but I don't know if it was necessarily to search the place," Reginald Ferguson, assistant commission of the Royal Bahamas Police Force, told the Associated Press.
Ferguson told the wire service that officers were in regular contact with Smith as part of their ongoing initial investigation into her son's death, but he failed to elaborate on whether they were questioning or simply chatting with the formerly zaftig Playboy Playmate.
The visits to the 38-year-old's waterfront Bahamian mansion--the purchase of which granted her a somewhat controversial citizenship to the nation--were just the latest pit stops in what has become an international inquiry.
Two weeks ago, a small contingent of Bahamian authorities took a trip to California to question Daniel's doctor and several other unidentified people to learn as much as possible about the days leading up the young man's Sept. 10 death in a Nassau hospital room.
At the time, Ferguson said they were trying to determine what drugs Daniel may have been on, and which doctors issued the prescriptions.
While the Bahamian coroner's department has yet to officially declare a cause of death, last month, Dr. Cyril Wecht, a private pathologist hired by Smith, released toxicology findings claiming Daniel's death was caused by an accidental lethal combination of methadone and the antidepressants Lexapro and Zoloft.
On their trip to the States, officers also sought to speak with passengers from Daniel's flights to Nassau, though it's unclear whether or not they managed to contact fellow flyers.
The Royal Bahamas Police Force is expected to complete its initial investigation sometime this week, at which point they will turn over their findings to the attorney general, who will determine whether an inquest--or any additional court action--should be taken.
If so, Anna Nicole has some hiring to do.
Last week, Michael Scott, the attorney handling the case for Smith, announced a public and contentious split from his client, citing disagreements on the new mother's behavior in the wake of Daniel's death as well as "strong differences of opinion" between Scott and Howard K. Stern over legal strategies. Stern was Smith's personal attorney before becoming her public paramour.
Daniel Smith's body, meanwhile, remains in a Nassau funeral home awaiting burial.
