Howard K. Stern arrested for giving drugs to Anna Nicole Smith. More like, her illegally obtained plethora of prescriptions.   Howard turned himself in on Thursday and was arrested with one doctor while a warrant was outstanding for a second doctor.

Anna Nicole died a little over two years ago in the Bahamas from prescription drugs.  It was ruled an accident, but someone had to have supplied her with all the pills. From People Magazine:

Stern, 40, a fixture at Smith’s side for years who once claimed to be the father of her daughter Dannielynn, has been formally charged with conspiring to furnish drugs to Smith prior to her death, prosecutors said Thursday.

He was arrested and booked by police in Whittier, Calif., with bail set for $20,000, police records show.

Also charged with felonies were two doctors, Sandeep Kapoor, 40, and Khristine Eroshevich, 61, who allegedly prescribed medication unlawfully to Smith, according to the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office.

Kapoor also was arrested and booked in Whittier. A warrant was issued for Eroshevich’s arrest.

The conspiracy counts allege the three defendants conspired to provide controlled substances to Smith from between June 2004 and January 2007. They also were charged with “prescribing, administering or dispensing a controlled substance to an addict,” among other charges.

It is a sad case, but hopefully justice can be served.  I really don’t think Howard intended to hurt her, I think he was mesmerized by her.  He did whatever Anna asked and she probably asked for ‘something’ to make her feel better.
