Drug Overdose = Wrongful Death Suit?

::DJ AM::

The estate of DJ AM Goldstein, former disc jockey and former  ’boy toy’ to Mandy Moore and Nicole Richie, has filed a wrongful death suit against “several defendants”,  including Clay Lacy Aviation and Learjet Inc.

The suit was file Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court.

DJ AM sustained serious injuries in a plane crash in South Carolina in Sept.2008.   He died from an overdose of script drugs and cocaine  August 2009, at the age of 26, which left two pilots and two friends dead.

Before his death,DJ AM had filed a negligence and breach of contract lawsuit.

So what is their game plan?  Are they going to ‘alledge’ that injuries he suffered in the crash, he was in so much pain, he became addicted to the drugs that killed him?   I dont recall cocaine being a prescribed drug…

And I’m sure the scripts came with dosage instructions.   So how will this be a ‘wrongful’ death?  Granted, Clay Lacy Aviation and Learjet may be on the hook,  if they can find something wrong with the aircraft,  but I think he was on his own with the drugs…

Breakin’ Newz: Anna OD’d

        (they say…)

 The autopsy report was released today…Anna Nicole Smith ‘accidentally’ overdosed on at least nine prescription drugs – including a powerful sleep syrup she was known to swig right out of the bottle – after a miserable last few days in which she endured stomach flu, a 105-degree fever, pungent sweating, and a pus-filled infection on her buttocks from repeated in-jections.  (Dayumm!  WHY did all these people let her kill herself like this?)

In the report, they did note that she ‘refused’  to go to the hospital 3 days prior to her Feb 8th death, and chose to ride out her illness in a hotel suite littered with pill bottles, soda cans, SlimFast, nicotine gum and an open box of Tamiflu tablets  (what a terrible concoction), because “she did not want the media frenzy that follows her.” 

Police say they found no apparent signs of foul play, and the medical examiner also ruled Smith’s death probably was not a suicide because people who take their own lives typically use much more lethal drugs than chloral hydrate.

I still have an issue with Howard K- I mean he could have put his foot down and MADE her go to the hospital.  I think at some point she was irresponsive and unable to tell anyone shyt.  He was advisin her on every dayumm thang else…

The report laid out that a Pvt Nurse asked a bodyguard to call 911 around 1 am.   40 mins go by before the EMS was called by the bodyguard.  The ambulance reached the hospital at 2:43 and Anna was pronounced dead…what happened in that hour?  What did they all talk about? 

The medical examiner’s report was accompanied by a press release and even a PowerPoint presentation (a PowerPoint? Wow…)

Among the excruciating details were descriptions of Smith’s breast-enhancement scars, her pink hair extensions (and I bet they were cute as hell!) and numerous tattoos, including one of a Playboy bunny and the smiling face of Marilyn Monroe.

I still say Howard K knows somethin’…

Oct 14, 2009 TRIAL  UPDATE

 

LOS ANGELES – Anna Nicole Smith was ill, confused and isolated in a hotel room with a cornucopia of prescription drugs in the days before her death, an investigator testified Tuesday in a criminal case stemming from the celebrity model’s overdose death.  Smith was unable to walk unassisted into the Florida hotel, and she was so weak she could not sit up to drink liquids.

The testimony was presented in a preliminary hearing involving charges that Smith’s former lawyer-boyfriend Howard K. Stern and two California doctors conspired to illegally provide Smith with controlled substances before her drug-overdose death at age 39.

Stern, Dr. Sandeep Kapoor and Dr. Khristina Eroshevich have pleaded not guilty. Their attorneys have said they are undecided or unlikely to call defense witnesses during the preliminary hearing.

Santiago’s testimony was mostly a summary of what Florida law enforcement investigators had learned after Smith’s fatal collapse in the hotel room on Feb. 8, 2007. He also identified prescription drugs found in the hotel room as the prosecutor showed pictures of bottles and hundreds of pills.

Some of the prescriptions were in Stern’s name, although some used an alternate spelling, Stearn, and some had been prescribed by Eroshevich, Santiago said.

Smith’s autopsy concluded she died of “acute combined drug intoxication,” and the drugs involved were chloral hydrate combined with Benadryl, clonazepam, diazepam and lorazepam. Clonazepam and Soma, both muscle relaxants, and the sedative diazepam were among medications found in the suite…

The Current Bombshell…

    The saga continues…

There was a story on Nancy Grace tonight with a Private Investigator named Jack Harding, addin’ more wood to the already raging fire.  He stated that Daniel, Anna’s son, came to him before his death, and told him he was worried about his mother, that he felt Howard K was keeping her “prisoner”, and feeding her drugs, manipulating her-that the situ wasnt right…

 Now I don’t kno if this is all just fodder for the gossip mill and this man is just riding the rainbow while its full (you know there are alot of people coming to the front with all these reasons to be involved…),  or they are on to something.  I have always thought there was something funny there.  First Daniel dies at the tender age of 20 from and overdose of Methadone (WHERE would he get that, and why would he fluck with it?  Most young kids I kno smoke weed or might do a few lines-unless their smokin meth, which is a whole ‘notha story.  But Methadone is a little far-fetched).  The fact that Anna was sittin on a possible 450 Mil, and Daniel was her sole heir, is reason enuff in my book to bump him off.   He said he was contacted shortly after Daniels death by the Bahamian authorities, because they found his biz card on the boy’s body.  Now whats up with that?  Could it be he was gonna call him about his mother? 

You kno, white folks do alot of things that don’t make no sense for money…just watch CourtTV. 

Then – after that, he hurries up and marries her, in the Bahamas and no one knu; the world found out after she died(?) which puts him in line.  THEN, she has a baby no one really knew she was having, and its HIS-so he says…

Now the woman is dead mysteriously and he is in line to claim that 450 Mil if she gets it.   They also said there is evidence she was injected with  and Demerol- an opiate- shortly before she died. 

So that gets rid of the beneficiary and the heir- and since he, as the husband is left standin, he gets the pot.  Or better still, if the baby is his, and the baby is deemed her sole heir in the event of Daniel’s death, as the father and guardian he gets the pot.  At the very least, he gets an Executors fee from the estate (which he is named as in this comical will…), and with 450 Mil, its gonna be healthy.

I could see a crime commited here.  This man is a  lawyer; he could think he could commit the perfect crime.  And he knows how important it is to cooperate with the law.  He is barred in Cali, and not cooperating with them now.  And he wasnt advising as a retained lawyer well.  Look at the will thing.   And then having a personal relationship with his client like that…Unfortunately, he ‘prolly cant be disbarred for this.

But it sho’ looks ugly.

What if it is found that he did knock off Daniel, and he did knock off Anna? 

For tha money? 

I’m sorry , I just don’t think Ms Anna was ready to die at 39.  She had help.  For a reason-this money.  If it was Howard K- we shall see…

I think it was…

Wouldnt it be ironic they don’t award her the money after all?  All these people jockeyin for position will have wasted their time and greedy efforts for nothing, and 2 people who deserved to live-and everyone does- are dead. 

For what?

Ugly.
