Jury Rules Anna Nicole’s Son Died Of Accidental Overdose Save Email Print

A | A | A

(March 31, 2008)--A jury determined Monday in the Bahamas that Anna Nicole Smith's 20-year-old son died from an accidental drug overdose and the seven-member panel recommended no criminal charges.

Daniel Smith was born in Mexia where his mother once worked in a chicken restaurant before becoming a Playboy model and TV reality show star.

The jury deliberated less than two hours before returning the verdict Monday, ending an inquest that started in November.

The son of the former Playboy playmate died in September 2006 after traveling to the Bahamas to meet his new baby sister.

His mother died early the next year.

An autopsy found that Daniel likely died from a combination of drugs, including methadone and antidepressants.

To Sue in Waco, Instead of saying who cares you should just say a prayer for Anna Nicole and her family for this tragedy they had to endure.Whats with people now days someone dies and all they can say is who cares. WOW!

Good night, give it a rest, forever... how is his poor sister ever going to have a chance at a some what normal life if every so often someone wants to re open a case about him or their mother. They are gone and nothing is going to change that. I am sure his Texas family enjoys hearing about it over and over....
