Investigating the deaths of Anna Nicole and Daniel Smith

The autopsy results are in and the latest update is that Anna Nicole's death was due to a drug overdose. It is still being investigated whether her overdose was suicide, homicide or accidental. One new theory is that the antibiotic she was taking interacted with the caffeine in soda she was drinking to prevent her from sleeping. As a result, she overdosed on chloral hydrate, medication she took to sleep. All three drugs were present in her toxocology report, especially a large amount of chloral hydrate, so this theory definitely has a leg to stand on. Click here for the full details. As far as Daniel's death goes, a hearing began Tuesday in the Bahamas to investigate potential homicide or suicide. We know he overdosed on methadone, but what we don't know is if it was on purpose, accident, or if he was drugged by someone else... This article has full details on Daniel's hearing.
Daniel Smith died in the Bahamian hospital while visiting his mother and newly born sister, Dannielynn. The picture above is the last picture ever taken of Daniel. To me it's quite ironic that Anna named her daughter after her son and her son dies shortly after she gives birth to her daughter. Both mother and son dying of drug overdoses within one year sounds fishy, but then again both had a lot of problems. I am curious to see how the Anna Nicole Smith mystery unravels..Who is Dannielynn's biological father? Were Anna and Daniel poisoned? Only time will tell.
