Anna Nicole Smith

Extremely RARE images including Sinead, Bon Jovi and Pearl Jam

“I made this video for the 5 year anniversary of Anna Nicole Smith’s Death.

What is Anna Nicole Smiths legacy? – Playmate, reality show diva, actress, businesswoman, super model, tragic beauty. These words describe the legacy left behind by Anna Nicole Smith. Above the ditzy blonde bombshell, she embodied more than her infamous Marilyn Monroe …look-a-like status….Whether or not she planned it…she grabbed Hollywood by the horns and took the public for a ride.

The world didn’t adopt a true Anna addiction until those iconic photos from Anna Nicole GUESS ads were posted in every magazine. From the moment her Guess ads appeared on billboards worldwide, we were hooked. Her “gold digging” habits with her 80-year-old oil tycoon husband, J. Howard Marshall, made us take a second look. Her Death a third look. But what made this woman so different from the rest? She was “entertaining the world every day of her waking life”, consciously or unconsciously, and arguably the most beautiful woman to ever live.

Now that she’s passed, we’re still captivated. Her life is the epitome of every soap opera we’ve ever seen rolled into one. Like Marilyn Monroe the world is also still waiting for a cause of Anna’s death. The rumor mill says she died of a drug overdose, but there were no pills found in her blood or stomach. Other rumors are that she choked in her own vomit, she killed herself, or she was murdered. Some of her friends say she died of a broken heart. Even with Anna Nicole’s death, the world wants more of her in any shape possible. The gossip-spreading keeps her alive. As far as the entertainment industry goes, there hasn’t been–and never will be another Anna Nicole Smith. No other celebrity has left such a deep scar in the media because her life was a roller coaster the world couldn’t stop watching.

This GUESS campaign featuring Anna Nicole Smith gives us one of the most classic pictures of Anna from her prime. These GUESS images will become as iconic as those of Marilyn Monroe that are just as tattooed in our minds. Before you laugh remember that people in 1962 had many of the same thoughts of Marilyn that some people have today of Anna. Time and death makes legends out of beautiful blonde women.”

John J Nazarian Celebrity PI

Last night John J. Nazarian sent out the following email as well as on Twitter and Face Book:

“Hear me live tomorrow at 6pm Pacific Time on my new show Straight Talk with John J Nazarian at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/john-j-nazarian. This will be every Sunday night for one hour and will go to five nights a week shortly after. Some of you will be surprised and most of you will ask what took so long, it will be me unedited and telling it like it is. There will be guests and a few celeb’s of course; it will be my thoughts and opinions of many subjects.”

I am very excited that John is jumping into radio and will bet he will be syndicated in a few months at most. I look forward to his guests and the celebs that will appear, just think who all John knows and who all wants to debate with John.

I have been invited to debate with John Nazarian about the Casey Anthony trial, I believe our judicial system works, Nazarian feels it failed bad in that case. That announcement on his new site of Straight Talk with John J. Nazarian states:

“Sept. 4, 2011 6 PM PDT CASEY ANTHONY LATEST GUEST: ROSE TURNER- John offers insight about the case and debates with Rose of RoseSpeaks.com about the case.. the trial .. and the outcome. Where is Anthony now. Is her life really in danger? How do you feel about the potential she will profit from the case. Could she ever face lesser charges? or is she free and clear. Viewer feedback lines will be open.”

Nazarian’s guest today, his premiere show, is Vee Foster and among other things they will be talking about both Anna Nicole Smith, the 4+ years of cases and Michael Jackson and the upcoming trial of Dr. Conrad Murray. The site says:

“August 21, 2011 Straight Talk with John J. Nazarian Celebrity PI Premiers at 6 PM PDT. GUEST: Ve Foster investigative journalist. Get to know the real John, his thoughts, cases, call in and ask him a question or just say Hi.”

I will be on today’s show briefly, of course promoting the way we cover trials which we believe is different than most sites.

Be sure to tune in today at 6 PM PDT, 7 PM MDT, 8 PM CDT and 9 PM EDT and for the weeks to come. My bet is that Nazarian with the controversy that comes with him, will be an instant hit. Ken and I both are in the category of: “most of you will ask what took so long”.

Be sure and tune in today, it should be fun, entertaining and enlightening.

Join other posters to discuss all of the cases we cover. Diamond Girl runs the community part of the site and remember discuss the evidence don’t attack other posters. If you read a post that upsets you just scroll past that comment http://community.rosespeaks.com/ I seldom step on the forums that belongs to the members and is in great hands with Diamond Girl and she will be having a robust discussion there that all of you are invited to join

Anna Nicole and Daniel Wayne Smith

Well talk about “the other shoe dropping,” it did for a few people this morning. I am sure that anything to do with the “Supremes” will never be a favorite group for those left behind in the Anna Nicole Smith saga, for that matter they may never mention “Supreme” anything. The cascading and never-ending grief that surrounded Anna Nicole Smith just continued today when the U.S. Supreme Court made it clear, “Get a Job.” There will be no millions and millions and for that matter there will be Zilch, Nada and all those legal fees..ouch! The dreams of all those “Benjamins” stacked neatly in big piles and personal bankers have all turned into nightmares, just like the lives of many involved in the Anna Nicole Smith Saga.

It is my belief that had Anna Nicole Smith lived, life would have been better for some and just awful for one or two. The “Master Plan” would have been in effect and she and her constant companion would have lived happily ever after raising “their child.” Perhaps I think that the U. S. Supreme Court Decision on Anna Nicole Smith Estate (231); U.S. Supreme Court would have maybe been a little more generous had Anna been around. What “The Supremes” thought of this case and the “players” was addressed by Justice Roberts. The comment by Justice Roberts in quoting Charles Dickens novel “Bleak House“ spoke volumes with what he was thinking in reference to this entire matter, again, my opinion.

Someone told me that they thought that they heard someone yell, “Oh my god stop decorating,” we are not sure in what context that was heard, but funny right? All those millions would have been a pain in the ass for someone to have to handle, just terrible. And the lifestyle, Big Houses, Big Pools, Big Lawns, Big Staffs, Big Security, Fancy Cars, First Class travel, Wonderful Fancy Hotels the “Life of Riley.” Who the hell would want such a thing to have to wake up to every morning, knowing that all you had to do was have fun with your kids. And spend money taking “care” of all their little needs each and every one of them. Looking at what money and fame has brought to the life of Anna Nicole Smith, maybe the simple life will be the trick and one of joy and love. Frankly, what the hell, seems like there is not much of a choice at this point…

Dr. Arnold Klein

The first glaring question to me is did the death of Michael Jackson cause the bankruptcy of Dr. Arnold Klein and if so, what does that say about the prescriptions that were being handed out to stay close to Jackson?

March 10, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein Status Report on his pending bankruptcy. (171) This filing is interesting because it states in part; “Dr. Arnold Klein is often referred to as and considered the father of modern cosmetic dermatology”. Arnold Klein has also filed bankruptcy in his medical corporation which is a separate case before this same court. Arnold “believes that some or all of his financial obligations were incurred as a result of fraud and/or embezzlement perpetrated by his former accountant and office manager…” It also gives us a peek into the Dr. Conrad Murray state criminal trial by stating; “Dr. Klein plans to retain the Law Offices of Garo B. Ghazarian as his criminal attorneys in connection with a subpoena issued to compel Klein’s deposition in connection with a state court criminal case. Klein also gives up a view into the rich and famous and what cutting back is to them. Be sure to read page 8 on the three properties, lawn and pool service, eat, drink and be merry and care takers for the two he does not live in. Not the normal bankruptcy here.

March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Summary Schedules (197)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Statistical Summary of Certain Liabilities (175)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Statement of Financial Affairs (190)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule A Real Property (212) This document lists Klein’s three homes, the value and how much he still owes on each one.

March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule B Personal Property (200) This is well worth a read, talking about arrogant millionaires. This lists every painting, a crystal panda bear, how things are framed, value, and where Klein bought them from. A GREAT advertisement for places like Christies and I would say not to expect this to go on sale in a yard or garage sale or even on an auction block. This to me was the best read of these papers filed.

March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule C Property Eexempt from bankruptcy (177)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule D Creditors holding Secured Claims (167)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule E Creditors holding UNSecured Claims (161)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule F Creditors holding UNSecured Non-priority Claims (189) Basically shows credit cards, gardeners, etc. that are maxed out, but also WHO is Michael Duffy that Klein was loaned $200k from this person, and now it is probably never going to be paid back.

March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule G Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases (158)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule H Listing Co-Debtor (160)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule I Listing income as $30k a month (181)
March 16, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Amended Schedule J Listing PERSONAL monthly cost of living as about $26k (175)

April 7, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Motion to Compel Bank of California to Produce Documents (144) Klein alleges someone opened at least one account in his name at this bank without his consent and then proceeded with unauthorized transactions with the bank account. Klein is seeking the information to possibly sue the bank and the person who opened the account.

April 7, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Motion to Compel Excell Nation Bank to Produce Documents (145) Klein alleges that someone without his permission made unauthorized transactions with the bank accounts Klein has at this bank without his consent and Klein is seeking the information in order to bring a suit against the person or persons who made the unauthorized transactions.

April 8, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Motion to Compel Able Investment Services to Produce Documents (150) Klein alleges that Able Investment Services, LLC, Klein is alleging that loan made by Able to Klein who holds the first deed of trust against one of Klein’s homes and Klein believes that the lien held by Able is one of the many liabilities incurred by his former business manager and/or others without Klein’s consent or knowledge.

April 15, 2011 Dr. Arnold Klein\'s Motion and Memorandum of Law to Supprt Request for Order Establishing Bard Date for filing Proof of Cliams and interest to date. (63) Klein is requesting an Order from the Court that will set a date of sixty-three days from the entry of the Order to file and serve proofs of claim or interest against Klein or be forever barred from asserting those claims or interests.

Anna Nicole Smith

I doubt that we will ever know what the Anna Nicole Smith’s Estate vs. Ford Shelley, G. Ben Thompson, Susan M. Brown et all, is going to end. I am willing to bet something is going on behind the scenes.

May 13, 2011 Anna Nicole Smith Estate files Joint Status Report NO Dates Available (310) On behalf of all of the parties Executor’s attorneys have filed a Status requested by the judge of the Federal Court in South Carolina as to what dates in August and September are the parties ready to go to trial because this has been pending about 3 years now, and the judge wanted to start jury selection on July 28, 2011. It appears from the filing that there are three days available in August and three days in September available for all of the parties and those dates are no where near each other.

There is no ruling on the money the Estate says Susan M. Brown owes the Estate. We have the ruling by the U. S. Supreme Court is due out by the last Monday of June 2011, but how could the parties NOT think the judge was ready to go on the South Carolina case? Whatever is up, we will never know UNLESS the judge issues an order of be here on this date or else. I doubt that will happen because the Court had already stated that it could send an Order out scheduling the trial to start at a later date then September. So what do you think the judge is going to do?

Dr. Arnold Klein

There is so much going on in all cases concerning Micheal Jackson’s Estate, Casey Anthony, Anna Nicole Smith’s Estate and Dr. Arnold Klein Bankruptcy turned into what seems is going to be another major event in the Jackson SAGAS.

Here are the papers on just the Michael Jackson Estate vs. Howard Mann and Vintage Pop, please also note on the right side of the front page is an updated scrolling court dates on a lot of cases I did this morning.

April 27, 2011 Vintage Pop Media Answer to the Estate of Michael Jackson vs Howard Mann and Vintage Pop. (270)
April 28, 2011 Court Order Setting Scheduling Conference Hearing for July 14, 2011 Estate of Michael Jackson vs. Howard Mann and Vintage Pop Media Scheduling Conference at 2:30 PM (304)

July 14, 2011 Estate of Michael Jackson vs. Howard Mann and Vintage Pop Media Scheduling Conference at 2:30 PM

Then we have the bankruptcy of Dr. Arnold Klein which WAS to be discharged as of today and gone!!!! Surprise like all of the cases involving Anna Nicole Smith and her Estate and the parties who knew her. Klein’s bankruptcy has turned into anything but “normal”. I started going through the files this afternoon and suddenly realized there were mass Motions and Memorandum of Law and revolving lawyers and claims and counterclaims. It is going to take me most of tonight to just see which ones to pull for ya’ll. However here is the Schedule of hearings I have read today.

May 10, 2011 at 2:00 PM Status Hearing on Arnold Klein’s Bankruptcy

May 18, 2011 9:00 AM Hearing on Multiple Motions on the Bankruptcy of Arnold Klein

Then we have poor Casey Anthony standing trial in the media circus that is said by the judge it will be bigger than O. J. Simpson’s murder trial. The sad things is Casey Anthony does not have the money to buy the dream team O. J. had, another reminder in the U. S., you are entitled to the best defense YOU have the money to BUY.

Casey Anthony

We are going to do something interesting with this case and I will put up some links to papers you may or may not have about this trial.

May 9, 2011 Jury Selection begins in Casey Anthony First Degree Murder Case in Florida. Already we are getting Nancy Grace’s grating voice on commercial that “she will have a panel” to cover the highlights everyday on her show. Thank God for remote control for the television, because Grace is not going to be beamed into this house.

May 16, 2011 Opening statements due on the Casey Anthony First Degree Murder Case in Florida. Rose Speaks.com will be giving twitter updates throughout each day of the trial.

Ken is setting up some new gadgets that is going to allow us and those of you who want to, twitter throughout the trial each day as we watch it on Tru TV the old Court TV. If you want to participate let us know you do on our twitter that we are sending out in about 5 minutes and Ken will work the magic that allows all of us to do this.

Do y’all want Diamond Girl to set up an open daily discussion each day for this case in the Community she runs? Let her know and I am sure if she can she will get with you about how you want to set this up.

On Anna Nicole Smith Estate vs. Susan M. Brown and the Brown Law Offices, Ford Shelley, G. Ben Thompson et. al. Ms. Brown is going to represent herself, what is that saying about a lawyer with themselves as a client?

May 6, 2011 Court Order Scheduling Dates including the Jury Trial of Anna Nicole Smith\'s Estate vs. Susan M. Brown, Brown Law Offices, Ford Shelley, G. Ben Thompson et. al. (102)

Peter C. Canfield and L. Lin Wood

I have met Mr. L. Lin Wood Jr. briefly in 2009 and I have listened via phone as both Mr. Wood and Mr. Neal McCabe argued Motions in the Harris County Court. However I have never had the privilege of seeing any of these attorneys, L. Lin Wood, Charles “Chip” Babcock, Harry Susman, etc. argue a Motion in person.

For anyone who would like to see L. Lin Wood in a court room this Bryant v. Cox Enterprises video is a must see.

On February 9, 2011 Mr. Wood argued the case of Bryant v. Cox Enterprises in front of the Georgia Appeals Court. The state Court of Appeals’ justices hearing this case is presiding Judge J.D. Smith, who is hearing the case along with Judge Charles B. Mikell and Judge Stephen L. A. Dillard

This case is now the estate of Richard Jewell vs The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Following the death of Mr. Jewell the case became titled Bryant v Cox Enterprises. The official plaintiff in this case is now G. Watson Bryant Jr., Jewell’s former attorney, who was designated executor of Jewell’s estate in his will. Cox Enterprises is the owner of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“I have sought justice for Richard Jewell for 14 years,” Wood told the judges.

Jewell was cleared of the Olympic Park bombing that killed one person and injured more than 100. In 2005, Eric Robert Rudolph confessed to the bombing and was sent to prison for life. Richard Jewell has since died of heart problems from a complication of his diabetes.

The estate of Richard Jewell is continuing to press the late security guard’s libel claims against the newspaper. At issue are stories published in July and August 1996 in which the newspaper reported that authorities suspected Jewell of planting the Olympic park bomb and believed he made an anonymous 911 call warning of an impending bombing. Jewell’s estate also is pressing a libel claim over a column by a Journal-Constitution sports writer that drew parallels between the investigations of Jewell and Wayne Williams, a convicted killer long considered the perpetrator of the Atlanta child murders.

Bryan Cave partner L. Lin Wood Jr., who has pursued the lawsuit against the Journal-Constitution since 1997, told the panel of Court of Appeals judges that statements in the newspaper’s articles were simply false. “We now know that Richard Jewell did not plant the bomb,” he said, saying the same was true for allegations about the 911 call. For those of us who did not follow the case of Richard Jewell and the allegations against him, Wood drew a mental picture during his argument of the horrors of that day before the appeals court including playing the audio of the anonymous 911 call and placing the words of the call on a screen. “You have just heard … the voice of someone you know is a cold-blooded killer,” Wood told the judges.

The newspaper filed a motion for summary judgment in December 1998—a motion on which Fulton County State Court Judge John R. Mather did not rule until late 2006. The appellate court had previously ruled that Jewell was a limited public figure, meaning Jewell had to prove that the newspaper acted with actual malice or reckless disregard of the truth.

Squarely at issue in the appeal heard Wednesday was Mather’s grant of summary judgment to the Journal-Constitution on all but one of Jewell’s libel claims in October 2006. Mather, ruled that the Aug. 4, 1996 story could be libelous because by then the Journal-Constitution had learned Jewell could not have made the 911 call and discovered the bomb moments later because of the distance between the two points.

Jewell’s legal team took the unusual step of all but acquiescing to the grant of summary judgment on that claim on the notion that to have the appellate courts consider Mather’s summary judgment rulings now would make multiple trials less likely. Wood’s decision to go all in with the appellate courts, rather than go to trial on Jewell’s claim over the Aug. 4 story, may mean a trial in the case never happens.

On the Aug. 4 Journal-Constitution story, Justice Smith wanted to know more about the column referencing Williams. Peter C. Canfield of Dow Lohnes, the newspaper’s longtime lead attorney on the case told the judges that the column didn’t say Jewell was guilty and the column suggested that investigators searching his mother’s apartment weren’t finding any evidence. Justice Smith asked, “you’re saying Journal-Constitution copy editors—who testified in depositions that they had expressed concern about the column before it ran—had no reason for concern?” Canfield responded that “Their concern was fairness, not falsity.”

On rebuttal, Wood said the copy editors said the column was libelous because of the comparison with Williams. And Wood took umbrage at Canfield’s previous suggestions that Jewell’s side has litigated the case with an eye more to the media and movie deals than having the case resolved on the merits.

If you have not seen the brief video of the Anna Nicole Smith Opera that has sold out all six performances in London at the Royal London Opera and is receiving good reviews I suggest viewing that short video.

Anna Nicole Smith and Howard K. Stern 2006

When I look at this picture of Anna Nicole Smith, her son, Daniel Wayne Smith and her lover lawyer Howard K. Stern entering the U. S. Supreme Court five years ago, February 2006, little did anyone know what would happen during the next five years.

Anna Nicole Smith was pregnant with her daughter Dannielynn and the world looked bright, especially in June 2006 when the U. S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously that Smith had a right to have her appeal sent back to the lower court to decide if she was entitled to any of her deceased husband’s, J. Howard Marshall’s Estate valued over one billion dollars.

Now five years later, once again Howard K. Stern returns to the Supreme Court to hear arguments on Tuesday, January 18, 2011 to address whether Smith’s Estate is entitled to part of the Estate of a deceased husband’s estates which has now been tangled up in court for 15 years. Howard K. Stern returns alone, unless Dannielynn’s father decides to attend with Stern, to see if Smith’s lone heir gets money.

In the last five years, Pierce Marshall has died, Daniel Wayne Smith has died, Anna Nicole Smith has died and John M. O’Quinn died in an accident. Howard K. Stern faced potential career ending charges and a trial to funneling drugs to a “known addict”. Stern was cleared of that on January 6, 2011 by Los Angeles Judge Robert Perry of all charges and his life was given back intact for him to continue to practice law.

On January 10, 2011 Stern filed the Reply to Elaine Marshall’s, Pierce Marshall’s widow, Response dated December 13, 2010, to the Estate of Smith’s Writ of Certiorari filed November 12 2010 with the Supreme Court once again ruling they will hear oral arguments this coming Tuesday and again decide this mega million dollar estate. Any decision by the U. S. Supreme Court will be issued no later than the last Monday of June 2011.

You have to feel a tad sad for Stern to be returning five years later, minus so many important people in his life including the love of his life Smith and her son Daniel.

The attorneys for the Estate of Anna Nicole Smith consists of; Philip W. Boesch Jr. Esq., The Boesch Law Group, Bruce S. Ross, Vivian L. Thoreen, Holland & Knight LLP, Kent L. Richland, Alan Diamond, Edward L. Xanders, Greines, Martin, Stein & Richaland LLP

The attorneys for Elaine Marshall consists of; Roy T. Englert Jr., of Robbins, Russell, Englert, Orseck, Untreiner and Sauber LLP as well as G. Erin Brunstad Jr., Collin O’Connor Undell, and Matthew J. Delude of Deschert LLP

There has been seven Ameicus Briefs filed by interested groups including the U. S. government, some in favor of Smith’s Estate and some in favor of Marshall.

Here is a list of the other papers filed so you can become acquainted with them to discuss prior to the hearing this Tuesday. The U. S. Supreme Court has three cases it is hearing oral arguments on with this one listed as the last of the three to be heard that day.

November 15, 2010 Ameicus Brief by Legal Professors in Support of Howard K. Stern. The legal professors and lawyers listed are Richard AAron, Laura Bartell, Jagdeep S. Bhandari, Susan Block-Lieb, Robert D’Agostino, Jackie Gardina, Ingrid Hillinger, George W. Kuney, Lois Lupica, C. Scott Pryor, Keith Sharfman, Michael D. Sousa, and Robert M. Ziman.

December 20, 2010 Ameicus Brief by the National Black Chamber of Commerce in Support of Elaine Marshall.

December 20, 2010 Ameicus Brief by by Washington Legal Foundation in Support of Elaine Marshall.

December 2010 Ameicus Brief by the Center Rule of Law in Support of Elaine Marshall.

December 2010 Ameicus Brief by Legal Professors in Support of Elaine Marshall. The law professors are; S. Todd Brown, G. Marcus Cole, Ronald D. Rotunda, and Todd J. Zywicki

The Three Points the U. S. Supreme Court has decided to hear oral arguments and issue an Opinion on three questions asked to be addressed by Smith’s Estate:

1. Whether the Ninth Circuit opinion, which renders §157(b)(2)(C) surplusage in
light of §157(b)(2)(B), contravenes Congress’ intent in enacting §157(b)(2)(C).

2. Whether Congress may, under Articles I and III, constitutionally authorize core
jurisdiction over debtors’ compulsory counterclaims to proofs of claim.

3. Whether the Ninth Circuit misapplied Marathon and Katchen and contravened this Court’s post-Marathon precedent, creating a circuit split in the process, by holding that Congress cannot constitutionally authorize non-Article III bankruptcy judges to enter final judgment on all compulsory counterclaims to proofs of claim.

I wonder if the Marshall money, like the Hope Diamond is going to be surrounded of the mystic of tragedy attached to it, what do you think?
