Cause of Death for Anna Nicole Released


Apparently The National Enquirer and Star magazines were right on in their breaking of the cause of death of Anna Nicole Smith. Broward County Medical Examiner Joshua Perper confirmed that a blood infection in combination with an accidental overdose of Chloral Hydrate, and other combo of drugs caused Smith's death. He has ruled it accidental, with no evidence of foul play or suicide.

The blood infection was from an abscess in her left buttock that was the site of multiple injections. The last injection Smith received perforated the puss filled abscess, causing the infection to spread into her body.

Smith had not taken methadone on the day of her death, but there was evidence that she had taken it several days earlier.

Had Anna gone to the hospital when it was recommended to her, she would more than likely be alive today.
