Warrants Served in Anna Nicole's Death

TMZ has learned that the California Department of Justice began serving search warrants Friday in connection with the death of Anna Nicole Smith. One was served this morning at the home of Anna's psychiatrist, Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, and we're told Howard K. Stern was actually there at the time!

We're told that eight warrants were served altogether by armed officers, and these may be connected to the Department's investigation of Dr. Eroshevich. KABC cameras caught Dr. Eroshevich outside her home today. Sources say the warrants were served at several businesses connected to Anna's doctors and at a storage facility. Ellyn Garafalo, a lawyer for Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, who prescribed methadone to Smith shortly before she died, confirmed to the AP the doctor's home and offices were among those raided.

As TMZ first reported, the Medical Board of California is investigating Eroshevich, who ordered a virtual pharmacy of drugs for Anna, five days after her son Daniel died.


UPDATES: We're told the DOJ will hold a press conference at 11:00 AM. Stay tuned!

35. When will the doctors learn, I mean that bottle of Methadone was HUGE! I can only hope that little dannilynn does not suffer from any long term effects. I can't believe that Anna went 9 entire months without mis using any drugs at all, it wasn't in her to be straight. I don't think she could function straight.
look at what drugs to Chris Benoit, he killed off his entire family. Money can buy you anything, even your own death.

38. It says warrants were served at several businesses connected to Anna's doctors and at a storage facility, not to Howard K Stern, I'm sure if they had one for him and he was at the doc's house at the time she got served they sure as hell would have served him!

39. Anna was one effed up broad. Howard was her enabler and helped keep her in drugs so that he could profit by it. That's just SICK!

He wasn't protecting Anna, he was using her. That woman needed psychological help, not more drugs. Prescription drugs are legal, but some of those doctors who are prescribing them KNOW what they are doing. But the money they make must be worth it. Bastards.

45. Stern was probably there trying to get his story straight. And this is not even the criminal probe yet. It's gonna be good.
