Ok, you are right. She is dead. But she is still famous and trouble is still associated with her name. The autopsy results will be published today. You heard it here first. Rumor has it that she died from complications of perscription medicine overdose. If she was furnished the medicine without a perscription, look for a wrongful death suit to be filed. This thickens the plot.
The police have been carefully investigating her death. This could be a fertile source of ammunition for the lawyers in the civil suit. In the meantime, DNA tests of the child were ordered. Birkhead is one step closer to a great deal of wealth.

Broward County Medical Examiner Joshua Perper said Smith died of "combined drug intoxication" with the sleeping medication chloral hydrate as the major factor. Smith was taking a lengthy list of other medications, including methadone for pain, he said.
Chloral hydrate is a sedative used to treat insomnia and alcohol withdrawal, relieve anxiety and ease post-surgery pain. Perper said Smith had been on several antidepressant and antianxiety drugs prior to her death.

New York Subway Hero Sues Lawyer
By SAMUEL MAULL
AP
NEW YORK (March 27) - A man cheered as a hero for jumping onto a subway track to rescue a stranger has sued a lawyer he claims manipulated him into an unfair contract meant to profit on his fame.
Blonde Bombshell:
Leave it to a man to get angry because he can't get enough reward for his heroism.

Larry Birkhead has his own website and he is talking!

Guess he also has a dispute over his legal fees...
Howard K. Stern lost a big one in the Bahamas today.
Stern's appeal on DNA testing was just shut down, and Howard K. was penalized by the three-judge panel to the tune of $10,000. TMZ has learned Stern was ordered to pay $5,000 in attorney's fees to the Registrar General and $5,000 to Birkhead's lawyer -- not Debra Opri, the Bahamian one.
This could clear the way for the unsealing of the DNA test results -- that should happen in court this week.
Howard K. Stern will not stand in Larry Birkhead's way if the DNA tests show Birkhead is Dannielynn's father.
"If Larry Birkhead is confirmed to be Dannielynn's biological father, Howard will not challenge custody. His love for her will not change, irrespective of the results. Howard will act in Dannielynn's best interest, because he loves her and would want a smooth transition to protect her, as she is deeply bonded to those who have been with her since birth."
