Boyfriend and psychiatrist convicted of conspiring to give model excessive amounts of prescription drugs—After a two month trial, a Los Angeles court convicted Howard K Stern and Khristine Eroshevich for conspiring to give her excessive amounts of painkillers, antidepressants and other prescription drugs.
The biggest killer drugs in the States right now are legal and have been prescribed. Here’s how easy it is to score and to get hooked. I went to my appointment with “Dr C’ in Los Angeles with a shopping list of the most commonly abused types of drug: pain relievers, tranquillisers, stimulants and sedatives. Beforehand, a local addiction specialist, Bernadine Fried, had briefed me on how to approach your doctor like an addict and still come away with fistfuls of pills.
More and more Americans are landing in the hospital due to poisoning by powerful prescription painkillers, sedatives and tranquilizers, according to a report released today. City-living middle-aged women seem particularly vulnerable.
Los Angeles District Attorney Renee Rose asserted, “There was a sexual relationship that happened in the past and possibly carrying into the future. It was the motive for Dr. Eroshevich to provide excessive medication to Anna Nicole Smith. There are ulterior motives for Dr. Eroshevich’s actions.”
According to the affidavits, photographs were discovered in the investigation depicting Smith naked with psychiatrist Khristine Eroschevich in a bathtub in “intimate embraces” that “constitute unprofessional behavior.”
