Anna Nicole Smith

Anna Nicole Smith and Howard K. Stern in 2006

Anna Nicole Smith's ex-boyfriend/attorney, Howard K.Stern, and former doctor, Sandeep Kapoor, were arrested last night in Los Angeles on charges they conspired to give her drugs before she died in 2007. A second doctor, Khristine Eroshevich, was also charged and is expected to turn herself in Monday. From CNN:

Stern, 40, Kapoor, 40, and Eroshevich, 61, were each charged with eight felonies, including conspiring to furnish controlled substances, unlawfully prescribing a controlled substance and obtaining fraudulent prescriptions from June 2004 to January 2007 -- only weeks before the playmate's death.

Kapoor and Eroshevich were each also charged with obtaining a prescription for opiates by "fraud, deceit or misrepresentation." Each was also charged with one count of obtaining a prescription for opiates by giving a false name or address, according to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office.

The doctors and Stern devised a plan to use a fake name so that Smith could be prescribed "thousands of pills," California Attorney General Jerry Brown said.

"She was obviously addicted," Brown said. "These doctors had a medical obligation to prescribe medicine in a professional way. Evidence will show this did not happen." (Source)

I'm all for justice but what the hell took so long? For fucks sake, Anna died two years ago, when most of us still had 401k accounts and a future. To put it in perspective, I still dreamed of banging Britney. When did the entire criminal justice system turn into a Police Academy movie? And more importantly, how does that one guy make all those cool sound effects with his mouth? I simply must know.
