Anna Nicole Smith

While I hesitate to even post about Anna Nicole Smith, especially since its been covered exhaustively over the past week. I do however make this post with a different goal than what the major news outlets have had.

I for one, am sick and tired of hearing about Anna Nicole Smith and having 6 hours of the same coverage telecasted throughout the day. We know she died of circumstances unknown, we know she has a newborn baby in the Bahamas that 3 men (Howard K. Stern, Larry Birkhead and Frederick Von Anhalt) claim to be the father of. We also know that whoever turns out to be the biological father will most likely have right to Smith's inheritance that will go to the baby and thus to the biological fathers charge.


However, what we don't know is why; her bodyguard tried to resuscitate her instead of her nurse who was there as well (she has two private nurses - one nurse is the bodyguards wife); why DNA testing wasn't done immediately after birth of the child and why it has taken Smith's death and a layover of 10 days (judges order) to get a DNA test; and lastly, why Smith died - there was no evidence of poisoning, overdose on drugs, "physical injury such as blunt force trauma, gunshot wound, stab wound or asphyxia as a cause of death.” However it has now been revealed that Smith “had been sick for several days with what was approximately some kind of stomach flu” before she collapsed and the only signs of minor trauma to Smith’s body were some bruises on her back, said to be the result of a recent slip in the bathroom.

Anna Nicole Smith's (39) death was termed as “a sudden unexpected and unexplained death.”
