Anna Nicole Smith's Home on the Market for $1.7 Million
Trulia
If buying memorabilia of the late Anna Nicole Smith is your thing, we've got the perfect addition to your collection: her house!
The Hollywood starlet's 4,700 square foot home is now on sale for a measly $1.7 million. Pocket change, right?
Well, it kind of is, considering what you're getting and the history behind it.
EXCLUSIVE!
Why Is Howard K. Stern Back in Court?!

If there's anyone who's in no rush to the see the inside of a courtroom, it's Howard K. Stern.
After all, it was a little more than two weeks ago that a judge dismissed all charges against him with regards to Anna Nicole Smith's death.
So when we spotted Stern heading into an L.A. courthouse this morning, we couldn't help but ask him about the return visit.
"I'm here for jury duty!" a casually dressed Stern told E! News.
Let's hope, for his sake, he's able to get out of it.
UPDATE!
Howard K. Stern Gets Off Scot-Free in Anna Nicole Smith Case

A judge this morning surprisingly dismissed two drug conspiracy charges against Howard K. Stern, who was convicted of both last fall in the seemingly neverending trial into Anna Nicole Smith's death.
"I'm ecstatic," Stern told E! News after the hearing. No doubt. But what about his alleged partner-in-crime?

Will Conviction Cost Howard K. Stern Control of Anna Nicole Estate?

UPDATE: On Nov. 29, Stern moved for either a new trial or to have the two conspiracy convictions against him dismissed, claiming that the "district attorney's story was fiction and the case against him was brought in the interest of politics and publicity, and not justice."
_________________________________
Just because he's now a convict doesn't mean Howard K. Stern has to give up his day job.
Despite being found guilty yesterday of conspiring to use fake names and false pretenses to score prescription meds for Anna Nicole Smith, Stern will not have to give up control of her estate.
According to Stern's probate attorney, here's why...

Anna Nicole Smith's doctor is in the clear. And yes, that's doctor, singular.
After 13 days of deliberations, the jury in the late star's drug conspiracy trial returned a verdict this afternoon and Dr. Sandeep Kapoorwas the only defendant cleared of all six charges against him.
Psychiatrist Khristine Eroshevich and Smith's attorney/confidant/sometime lover Howard K. Stern did not get off so easy.

Larry Birkhead supposedly testified for the D.A. But his sentiments are definitely with Howard K. Stern as he faces charges of plying their former leading lady, Anna Nicole Smith, with drugs.
"I'm glad it's over with," he exclusively told E! News after wrapping his testimony Monday. "At times I had to fight back tears...Talking about Anna brings back tearful memories."
As for his sometimes testy exchanges with prosecutors?
Larry Birkhead: Stern Said Anna Nicole "Needed Methadone to Live"
From the start, Larry Birkhead noticed that Anna Nicole Smith's medicine cabinet was pretty full—and not with cosmetics, face cream and hairspray.
Testifying for the prosecution in the prescription-drug case against Howard K. Stern and two of the late model's doctors, Birkhead said Thursday that, as far as he could tell, meds played a prominent role in Smith's life during the time they were romantically involved.

Just when we thought we'd heard all of the sordid details of Anna Nicole Smith's life in the months before she died and the state of her body when she ultimately passed...
But it seems as if there's always more.
Maurice Brighthaupt, who was Smith's bodyguard from 2003 until she died in 2007, testified Friday that he witnessed codefendants Howard K. Stern and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich disagreeing multiple times about Smith's well-being, with the shrink wanting to wean the onetime model off her prescription-drug habit and get her into rehab, and Stern objecting.
Anna Nicole Jury Selection Begins: Do You Have What It Takes?

Were you called for jury duty in Los Angeles County this week? And, if so, do you believe that doctors, hospitals and pharmacies should be permitted to use an alias or false name to protect a celebrity's privacy?
That's one of 107 questions being presented to the pool of prospective jurors in the upcoming trial of Anna Nicole Smith's companion, Howard K. Stern, and two of her doctors, all of whom are accused of facilitating the prescription-drug habit that ultimately killed her.
And aside from the usual "Have you ever been convicted of a crime?" portion of the questionnaire, both the prosecution and the defense want to know a lot about the 12 men and women (plus three alternates) they ultimately pick to sit on their jury.
