The world waits for the Jury Verdict to come in next week in the Dr. Conrad Murray Trial in the Involuntary Manslaughter charge in the death of Michael Jackson.

What is Dr. Murray and his lead defense attorney Edward Chernoff thinking and doing today, waiting for the jury to come back perhaps as early as tomorrow with a verdict.

Here is the jury instructions for you to read through and decide how tough is this going to be for this jury.

Jury Instructions in the Dr. Conrad Murray Trial for the death of Michael Jackson (117)

Straight Talk with John J Nazarian guests tonight are Criminal Defense attorney Adam Braun, who has been both a prosecutor and now one of the top criminal attorneys in California. Adam Braun can tell us what the Deputy D. A. David Walgren and his team or doing and thinking today about the upcoming week. Braun can also tell us what it is like as a defense lawyer waiting for the verdict to come in and Braun can give us a pretty good guess as to what Dr. Conrad Murray is doing this weekend except for just praying.

Adam Braun will be joined by two retired homicide detectives who were also partners for a time with the L. A. P. D, Robert Jakucs and William Cox. They can share what the detectives are doing this weekend now that months and months of work is complete and it is just a waiting game at this point.

The radio broadcast will be embedded here soon after it airs live at 7 PM PST – 10 PM EST


Adam H. Braun, Esq.
One of the best criminal defense lawyers in California. Braun is the Principal at Law Offices of Adam H. Braun and was a Federal Prosecutor at the United States Attorney’s Office for over 6 years. The Princeton University graduate represented Dr. Khristine Eroshevich during the lead up to the Anna Nicole Smith trial. Braun was the attorney for one of Anthony Pelicanno’s co-defendants. Braun comes from one of the highest profile families of brilliant criminal attorneys.


Robert A. Jakucs – Retired Homicide Detective of L.A.P.D
Robert A. Jakucs is a retired Los Angeles Police Department Detective with over 30-years of investigative experience. During his distinguished career with the L.A.P.D he worked such high-profile assignments as Homicide, Hollywood Vice, SWAT, Robberies, Burglaries, Complex Thefts, and gang-related shootings. He was a member of the Night Stalker Task Force that investigated the serial murderer Richard Ramirez. Robert Jakucs is also a consultant for national television specializing in private and police investigation issues and has appeared on the news shows Nightline, 20/20 and Inside Edition.

William Cox was a Los Angeles Police Detective who retired in 2007 after 32 years
William Cox worked in a variety of assignments including uniformed patrol, CRASH (gang detail) in South-Central and West Los Angeles areas. He also worked homicides for over 20 years and finished his career in Robbery-Homicide Division (RHD) which handles major cases including serial killers, multiple murders, media and high-profile cases, officer-involved shootings, and assaults and murders on police officers. He also worked the Rampart Corruption Task Force for two years. William Cox was also involved or handled several high-profile cases over the years including the Kimes (mother-son grifters who were responsible for 3 murders in LA, NY, and the Bahamas); the Goetz of the West case; the murder of the pregnant mother at LAX; plus several others.

William Cox has appeared on Investigative Discovery channel, 48 Hours, and E-entertainment. He is currently employed by the US State Dept. as a background investigator.

William Cox’s last case he worked on at RHD was a Chinese immigrant student attending USC who had gone to a frat party and had attempted to pull a gun and start shooting students. He was wrestled to the ground by other students who then called police. After a search warrant was served on the suspect’s apartment Cox and three other detectives were sent to NY City to investigate and attempt to identify approximately 20 persons he had targeted to possibly kill. (This incident occurred shortly after the mass murders at West Virginia Tech.) Cox was also working on a murder where a husband set his car and wife on fire on the Golden State Frwy. Cox had also been working (for the past four years) on a double homicide that had occurred in 2002 wherein two victims were killed in their car and their car set on fire. That murder was the story that 48 Hours has done and shown on television in February 2011.

With this combined years of experience this is a must tune in a listen and even ask a question of two as to what we should expect this coming week of the verdict watch for Dr. Conrad Murray.

Telephone lines are always open to call in, join in the discussion or ask questions of John and his guests, Adam Braun, Robert “Bob” Jakucs and William “Bill” Cox at 818-572-8030 long distances charges do apply.

Anna Nicole Smith

Seldom do I ever get a chance to just unwind and relax and think nothing except just the food I am eating. Well I got together with a ‘re-new’ old friend, does that make any sense? Let me explain, I met Daniel DiCriscio years ago, a very long time ago. He was employed at the Jose Eber Salon and had just launched his music career. Funny as it seems I remember that CD and it was not bad. I was developing my new business and offices and Daniel was busy with his hair and as I said his music. This guy has some real talent other than being ‘Daniel’. Go ahead and Google him, after you Google me.

Recently his mom died and we communicated both by phone and email and I could hear the pain in his voice as well as in his writings. His emotions were ones that had escaped me during similar circumstances that I had and I felt bad that he was at a loss in his mother’s death. We spoke further and again, it was good for me in away that is hard for me to explain.

Well through the last couple of years Daniel has assisted me in a few projects and he, like myself are tough to miss. He has a presence! The great blond hair and of course his style of dress, too bad those in power during the Anna Nicole Show missed him and found that ‘mess’ who played too many episodes. Booby Bobby or Bobby Boob, whatever. The two of us make an interesting ‘set’, black and white, sour and sweet, Beauty and , well enough, you get my point.

I suggested we get together for a bite to eat and the amazing thing here is that we are both very entertaining when it comes to the rich and famous. It was to the point I was wondering how have we missed what could be one of the best duos since Dean and Jerry, Amos and Andy, Jan and Dean, and maybe even Mutt and Jeff. My point here is that we could both have a new career, we had each other laughing and on serious points we were both on target. Especially, our thoughts on Anna Nicole Smith as well as others both in and out of Hollywood. My perspective is sarcastic and stinging; Daniel has what I call a ‘snap’, like get over it. Call me a little odd, but I was very entertained and realized it was just him and me.

I am posting this picture to make my point, when it comes to ‘Hollywood Insiders’ no one can come close to either one of us. And we both understand how far to the line we can come after all of these years bumping around Hollywood. Speaking for myself, there are things that I would never speak of and a book, is never going to happen. For Daniel the stories about Elizabeth Taylor alone could fill two chapters in his book. My time with Miss Taylor could fill maybe ten pages….thanks Adam! I recall my first encounter with Peerez Hilton and thought, “ Beast “, and having to do a short pilot with him, Lisa Stanley of KRTH ( she is the best ) and Ryan Seacrest’s assistant, what’s her name……the painful part was Peerez Hilton…and those feet!

All I am saying is watch, there could very well be some very interesting ‘tea’ coming along and presented in away that only two people in this town could present, John & Daniel or Daniel & John……that will be a hump to stroll over…..in time.

Wholesome Madam Michelle Braun

When Michelle Braun graced Rose Speaks.com the day of her sentencing, one of the things she posted was she wasn’t worried about making more money that is always something easy to do if you are smart, like her.

Braun pled guilty to one count of money laundering and one count of transporting a woman across state lines for prostitution. Braun is quick to say she WAS NOT convicted of anything because the federal government had nothing to convict her on. So why did Braun plead guilty and get six (6) months of house arrest and three (3) years of probation. It is simple Braun said she took a bullet for everyone, family members, Johns and her girls, OH REALLY???

Braun was quick to start her P. R. campaign with the announcement of a tell all book to a “news” infotainment gossip rag in New York that she was taking Hugh Hefner and the Playboy empire on face to face. Of course this is shortly after settling a copyright suit with Playboy and Hefner out of court. What is that saying; “hell has no fury like a woman climbing back up to the top”? Braun is taking on Playboy’s image of the wholesome girl next door turned Playboy centerfold vowing to debunk that myth. I did not know that is how Playboy billed their centerfolds, they don’t look like most girls next door in my world, they are sexual air brushed hot nudes, made to make men have wonderful fantasies. Like sugarplums at Christmas dance through the heads of children, Playboy plays to the fantasies of adults. However, Michelle Braun is to do a tell all book about how she always had one girl inside the world of Hefner’s house to “recruit” for her yearly multimillion dollar business. Braun is claiming that at one time six of the seven women living at the Playboy Mansion worked for Braun behind Hefner’s back. Why take on Hugh Hefner and the Playboy Empire, easy it gets her that face time she desires and it keeps her busy for the next six months.

Then entered Tiger Woods and the around the clock infotainment coverage, one New York rag had Tiger on the front page for 25 straight days and will have him on the cover through the end of the year no doubt. Michelle Braun sprung to get into that, after all famous man, lots of money, beautiful girls, of course that would include Braun wouldn’t it? She appeared on every show that she could get with the bracelet on her ankle and from her Florida home. You know that is what house arrest consists of no matter how nice the home or the number of shows willing to do a video feed from her confining quarters. Her home sweet home for the next five months, we saw show after show featuring her confessions of how much Woods spent per night with her prostitutes and which ones as they were uncovered worked for her stable. You have to give her credit she is her own best promoter in the world of needing that P. R. However one site says this “might not be true”, if so expect Marty Singer, Hollywood heavy weight lawyer to ask for those IRS 1099 forms.

My question whom did she take that bullet for? She is taking on Hugh Hefner, the Playboy Empire and now Tiger Woods. In the Woods’ sensational infotainment news Braun has threatened to release 1099 IRS forms on the girls who say they never worked for her. We got to see that “confession” by Braun during a few prime time coverage shows and a lot of infotainment shows like Geraldo on Fox.

Is there anymore empires, rich men or beautiful women who need to worry about whether or not they are on her list of “secrets to keep”. I bet that the “ex-Madam’s” reemergence on to the stage of a “Madam” turned author will prove to be interesting to say the least. As she continues to refer to them as “her girls” and at the expense of all of those people she claims she took the bullet for, by the way who did she take a bullet for? Why didn’t the feds keep those 1099 IRS forms? One could guess that was an early Christmas present to the “Madam” from the feds. After all a girl has to work.

We are lucky to have the two pictures merged with this article. The one on the left is of the flat chest-ed girl with a tad long nose who really does look like the girl next door. This is side by side of the voluptuous huge breasted, hour glass figure that comes with the high price payments of plastic surgery, should she send out thank-you cards to those who gave her those boobs? Braun had a message for all, the day of her sentencing especially to all of her fans on her Face Book; note the finger that perhaps was the first hint she was out for money and blood. Ah the woman scorned who will end up in the tell all book who all did she offer up to the book publishers to sell her idea? One thing is for sure Braun does not intend to stay mum as Heidi Fleiss the last Hollywood Madam did for her girls and more important the rich and powerful men her business served.

We shall wait and see what sweet tidbits this “Hollywood Madam” called Michelle Braun offers up. Never fear Rose Speaks.com will continue with the coverage of the plight, the journey, the fall only to rise again if she has her way called the millionaire Madam.

Howard K. Stern and car at Preliminary hearing

It is the picture in this article, see red circle of the car, that spawn the gossip that Howard K. Stern was driving a new Mercedes Benz and how tasteless would that be?

First I have not seen the registration nor even the license plate number and until I do I am not buying this. It could be his parents, a rental car, one for his out of town attorneys, etc. However, what if Stern bought a “new Mercedes Benz”? I just don’t think that, it is not his kind of car and what one drives to court does not mean one owns it. Remember we have all heard the stories of Stern’s like for baseball caps and to dress down, so why a Mercedes Benz? For those of you who know cars look at the hood ornament on this silver car and tell me what kind of car it is? If Stern bought this or any other car big deal, if he got money from some of the lawsuits or contracts he negotiated and he chose to buy a new car with that money, great for him. I don’t get what all of the commotion is about. If you have a copy of a registration please scan it and send it on to us, if you prove to me he does own a new Mercedes I will eat my typed words on this blog.

It appears Stern did have one set back yesterday. Judge Robert Perry after hearing the amount of money that had been made since Anna Nicole Smith’s death from body guards to Larry Birkhead, he did agree that better accommodations should be provided to the Texas crew. So out of what is fondly called the roach motel and into better quarters Don Clark and Wilma Vicedomine were entitled to. Stern’s team had paid the airfare although the duo with their attorney Neil McCabe changed it to a later flight on Monday morning, and Stern’s team had to pay for 2 nights lodging at a classier hotel. It came down to in court who was fibbing to the judge? Chris Smith, Stern’s California criminal attorney, said he had contacted the duo and had offered 48 hours notice before appearing. Mr. Smith argued that Neil McCabe should not be allowed to address the court as he was not licensed in California. In the end the Judge did allow Mr. McCabe to speak on behalf of his two Texas clients, asked what his clients wanted, asked the defense team if they were going to call them and then split the argument in half it appears to me. Stern paid the upgrade for the lodging and McCabe’s clients would be hustled out of town by Wednesday morning.

I talked to one person involved in the fiasco to be in town or not to be in town. They said the communications between Chris Smith and Wilma Vicedomine broke down when she emailed him and told him to talk and handle things through her lawyer, Neil McCabe, and Mr. Smith felt Mr. McCabe was not licensed in California. Is there hostility there on both sides?? YOU BET!!!!

However, the big news in all of this to me is that by Howard K. Stern’s legal team subpoenaing Don Clark and Wilma Vicedomine as “hostile material” witnesses for Stern, neither Clark or Vicedomine will be allowed in court for any of the hearings including the trial. I would think that someone else will have to accompany Virgie Arthur to court each day and set with her during the jury trial. In your opinion was this a good move by Stern’s legal team?

It appears the good Dr. Nathalie Maullin is NOT an EXPERT witness, she is just a witness relaying the facts as she remembered them over two years later. I was told she had the personality of aluminum foil and would be a doctor that none of the patients including Anna Nicole Smith would have felt warm, snuggly, or even comfortable with. I went to work yesterday to find out more about Dr. Maullin with the ever changing “definitions and who she talked to” taking place in court. I can sum it up in one long sentence. She had been a doctor barely two years when she “treated” Anna Nicole Smith, and she has been downgraded from the prestigious Cedars Sinai Medical Center to Kaiser Hospital. Enough said.

The other two witnesses yesterday were two pharmacists, Steve Mazlin and Romeo V. Par; very dry testimony reading their records of what was ordered when and by whom.

There was a brief walk on witness to testify that one of Anna Nicole Smith’s alias names was Charlene Underwood and Ms. Underwood made a cameo appearance as this was not her.

Judge Robert J. Perry did not have a good day and is a tad upset with everyone, by yesterday afternoon he was telling Renee Rose to move the case along. Some in the court house heard her say out of court she could be finished by Friday before noon. Court Observers are betting it will last no longer than next Tuesday, October 27. Several Court Observers also said that all three defendants would be bound over for a criminal jury trial and Judge Perry would be happy to be rid of this mess from everyone. I would imagine he has empathy for the judge that inherits this for trial. BEFORE ALL OF YOU GET UPSET!!! Remember I predicted they would be held for trial on a minimum bond, the district attorney has to basically meet the bar of standards of a ham and cheese sandwich and the pharmacists alone probably did that for the prosecution. Judge Perry wants to be done with this. This preliminary hearing has allowed the defense team to see the assistant D. A. Renee Rose in action as well as some of her star witnesses and you can bet that by trial the defense team for each of the three defendants will be loaded for bear and ready to meet and bring reasonable doubt for their clients to a jury. It was Adam Braun, Dr. Khristine Eroshevich’s attorney, who said if the district attorney’s office could not meet the low hurdle required by California statute in a preliminary hearing the assistant district attorneys should be laid off. I agree and if I was any of the defense attorneys I would just let this round go to the State of California. We will see if my prediction is correct.

Now for Mo Mo making over a hundred and fifty thousand with money from interviews which is still probably pouring in from Fox, not bad for five months of work in the beautiful Caribbean with Anna Nicole Smith paying all of his expenses while he was there. His testimony is going to get to when did you lie, at the paid media deals or now at the hearing and on to the jury trial. If Sadow did in fact cause Mo Mo to become angry and agitated then the defense learned a lot from Mo Mo’s three days of testimony and I would bet they are going to go over that transcript with a fine tooth comb so to say. If I was Renee Rose I would make sure there were more people then just Mo Mo that saw what he claims to have seen, if he is the only one I predict that will not get far with a jury.

Next up is Larry Birkhead and the 2.3 million dollars paid since Anna Nicole Smith’s death, well part of it came from NBC contracts to be Tony Potts best paid friend with exclusives for 3 to 6 months back in the spring of 2007, how ever long that contract was for. So the over one million more I would say came from other media like Fox and CBS – Entertainment tonight, and I wonder if Birkhead was also adding up the magazine layouts he has done with Dannielynn since winning the DNA test? If he can make this kind of money GREAT, it means he has the dough to take care of his daughter.

I was sent an excerpt of something that suggested Birkhead was pocketing Dannielynn’s money and cheating Dannielynn trust account, WRONG. If Larry Birkhead is in the interviews or pictures sold, the money goes to him. If the money coming in is for the use of Anna Nicole Smith’s name and/or likeness it goes into Dannielynn’s trust account. IF at a later date Birkhead decides to be in a reality show, which again I heard the first editing was a bomb, then the money MADE by Dannielynn would have to be held for her in another trust account NOT the Estates. The same goes for if she appears in pictures alone or begins to model, that money would have to be held and accounted for, EVERY penny. Since Birkhead testified that he had made that much money there is no reason to doubt him. Birkhead has also become a household name in the last 2+ years as has many in this sad saga.

The big question is did Larry Birkhead lie about the young new assistant district attorney Sarah Slice and his conversation with her. If these allegations floating around the courthouse corridors and the district attorneys office are true and Birkhead did lie what a crappy thing to do to a young assistant district attorney, in my opinion. She was back in court yesterday and all was normal and she has learned to NEVER talk to a witness outside of the courtroom. The reason is because in court it can be spun to look like you did a naughty and the witness is the victim. I do have to say this fiasco got Birkhead international coverage and bumped Mo Mo from the papers, perhaps that was the plan all alone. If Birkhead lied about his conversations with Ms. Slice then shame on him to take advantage of a new and probably friendly attorney. I bet in all future hearings involving this trial, the state of California vs. these three defendants we will see two big burly bailiffs bring Birkhead in and out of court and Sarah Slice will never forget this hard learned lesson in the legal world of the rich and famous.

I have often said this site will close before it becomes a propaganda site for either side in all of these lawsuits. However, if I am told something and I can verify it through at least one and preferably with two other independent sources it will appear here and hopefully start a good dialogue.

I hope we have debunked part of the gossip and put perspective on the rest, and yes it was the courthouse discussion as it was in the offices for the district attorney that the allegations of Birkhead lying is true, I guess we will find out with time won’t we?

There is no court today and I believe the rest of the witnesses are not going to give us the fireworks that Mo Mo and Birkhead provided.

UPDATE: I did forget to mention that there is of course some main media in the courtroom as well as bloggers covering the case. Those bloggers sharing with me or telling me where to look, they are great and neutral…. HOWEVER, there are some bloggers in the courtroom that do not appear to be fair and unbiased, they have been identified as VA bloggers and now their identities are known and they will be dealt with appropriately.

Howard K. Stern hand that caused all of the gossip

So what is in Howard K. Stern’s hand?

Day six is completed and there is approximately 4 days left until Judge Perry hands this entire mess over to the trial judge for the case. Tell us your thoughts and would someone look up the car in this picture and tell us what the hell it is?

California P. I. John J. Nazarian with his client

Court started at 8:00 AM this morning, October 16, 2009 on day four of the preliminary hearing in Los Angeles California. First up is the re-direct examination by assistant D. A. Renee Rose for the state of California of Maurice “Big Mo” Brighthaupt. That has been scheduled by most to last about one and ½ hours by many court observers. It did come to light yesterday that “Big Mo” made $100k on one interview following Anna Nicole Smith’s death.

Mid-morning will begin the direct examination by Renee Rose of Larry Birkhead, he is expected to be pro Howard K. Stern but might be hostile to Dr. Kapoor and Dr. Eroshevich. Adam Braun, attorney for Eroshevich, he had just received an audio tape from the state of Birkhead’s interview with them and had not had time to fully examine it on Tuesday of this week.

The state is keeping their cards close as to what witnesses will be appearing on which days. There are hints around the courthouse that Superior Court Judge Robert J. Perry may shut down the preliminary hearing early next week. He is showing some impatience often heard saying, “This is not murder trial” and “Whose fault is it that somebody takes too many pills?” However yesterday during the cross examination by Steve Sadow of “Big Mo” the judge said they could keep this going for six months if the attorneys really wanted to do that.

I keep going back to why a public preliminary hearing which is a basic walk through preview of what might come up at trial, in lieu of a Grand Jury which the outcome would have been a finding of enough evidence to go to trial. They both, I am told, end up at the same place so why this, and not the close door hearing?

Don Clark is not in California as a “material hostile witness” for Howard K. Stern, he is expected back by next Tuesday, October 20 with Wilma Vicedomine and Tom Pirtle, I would think Stern’s legal team might reschedule that for after Wednesday October 21 since there will be no court on Wednesday.

UPDATE ONE: The redirect examination of Maurice “Big Mo” Brighthaupt has been completed by Assistant D. A. Renee Rose. Larry Birkhead is on the stand now and is expected to defend Howard K. Stern and point the finger at the two doctors, he is under going direct examination by the D. A. right now. Big Mo also testified not only did he see Dr. Eroshevich inject Anna Nicole Smith ONLY once in those 5 months but he also saw the bottle of B-12 and stated that was what Dr. Eroshevich used.

UPDATE TWO: Larry Birkhead is being very polite to Renee Rose showing his good southern manners but on a lot of questions he is answering either “I don’t know”, or “I can’t remember”. He should be a huge boost for Howard K. Stern after 2 days of Big Moe.

Keep up with Rose Speaks throughout the day today as we bring you the up to minute happening in California in the Howard K. Stern, Dr. Sandeep Kapoor and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich preliminary hearing, we have several court watchers rotating in and out of the court room giving us the feel of the court, I am sure each one will have that person’s personal take of this.

Dr Cyril Wecht and Dawna Kaufmann - A Question of Murder

Very quietly in January 2009 was published a book by Crime Story writer, Dawna Kaufmann, and renown Medical and Forensic Examiner Cyril Wecht M. D. J. D., called “A Question of Murder” appeared on store shelves and online book stores. The book deals with five cases and goes through how Dr. Cyril Wecht arrived at his conclusion in relation to “A Question of Murder”. I now have the book and this one TRULY has never before published information surrounding the death of Daniel Smith and Anna Nicole Smith. I have only skimmed through the 2 chapters, having laid the book on my bedside table, and saw two glaring things that caught by attention. That Dr. Wecht contacted Howard K. Stern about the testimony of Dr. Hern at the Inquest in Daniel Smith’s death in the Bahamas. The second thing that caught my eye right off is the related facts that in the chapter concerning was Anna Nicole Smith’s death “A Question of Murder” or even of possible murder, is a detailed dialogue of a conference call between Dr. Wecht, Howard K. Stern and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich. Dr. Wecht had extraordinary access to many of the main people who were really in the know about the death of Daniel Smith and his famous mother Anna Nicole Smith. It is well written which is a relief after reading the ninth grade level of writing of Rita Cosby’s book.

I suggest Barnes and Noble for the book but then I have a preference for them. After I read the chapter I will discuss the “A Question of Murder” for Daniel Smith. That will be followed by a discussion of “A Question of Murder” for Anna Nicole Smith. If you don’t like Barnes and Noble a link section on our main site has numerous online stores to purchase the book from.

This book is riveting in the teaming up of Cyril Wecht M. D. with Dawna Kaufmann the Crime story writer to make sure it holds one interest and is not loaded with too much medical jargon. It holds the attention of the reader in great details about all five cases covered in “A Question of Murder”.

I am going to give each of you time to order your copy or pick it up at your local book store before I begin to discuss it. After you have purchased your copy write down the questions you have about “A Question of Murder” we will have access to the authors to finally separate, rumors the out and out lies that tabloid media deal with, and I hope we find the truth; or as much as we can before the preliminary hearing in October.

How Rita Cosby’s book made it to the best seller list and this book did not is beyond my comprehension. Oh yea, the book of the true blond ambitious Rita Cosby had explosive allegations often not covered by facts at all per Judge Denny Chin. His finding outlines his “thoughts” on the meeting the bar of both malicious intent and for punitive damages to be tried before a jury.
