Celebrities really have to be careful who they surround themselves with!
Court documents have been released regarding the death of Anna Nicole Smith and what they reveal is truly shocking.
Anna Nicole’s psychiatrist, Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, and internist Sandeep Kapoor, prescribed a very dangerous combination of drugs shortly after the death of Anna’s son, Daniel, and the birth of her daughter, Dannielynn.
So much so that the pharmacist called Kapoor telling him that he would not fill a prescription that he referred to as “pharmaceutical suicide.”
The prescription called for 300 tablets of methadone, two different types of sedatives, a muscle relaxer, an anti-inflammatory drug and four bottles of a painkiller with the moniker of “hospital heroin.”
Less than 5 months later, Anna Nicole Smith died of a prescription drug overdose. At the time of her death she had 44 prescriptions under at least 9 aliases.
Both Eroshevich and Kapoor were also said to be involved with Smith in a highly unprofessional manner as both were documented in either photos or video engaging in sexual behavior with her.
Shady, shady.
Furthermore, Eroshevich prescribed chloral hydrate, an out-of-date insomnia treatment, for Anna Nicole to which the pharmacist said, “I wouldn’t give her chloral hydrate unless you want your picture on the front page of the National Enquirer.”
Eroshevich did consult a retired toxicologist, Special Agent Jennifer Doss of the State Justice Department, about the combination she was prescribing Anna Nicole and Doss told her that it “might work for a drug addict under supervised care or with a dying cancer patient in a hospital or if you were going to kill someone.”
Both Eroshevich and Kapoor in addition to Howard K. Stern were charged with conspiring to provide Anna Nicole with controlled substances in March.
All 3 have pleaded not guilty.
Sad.
Hopefully they get what they deserve!
RIP Anna.
