Posted on Sep 23, 2009 @ 02:02PM
Prosecutors added more charges against Howard K. Stern and arraigned him on 11 counts Wednesday in connection with Anna Nicole Smith’s drug-induced death. Two of Smith’s doctors, psychiatrist Khristine Eroshevich and internist Sandeep Kapoor, were arraigned on six charges each.
More than two years after the tragic death of the blonde bombshell, the legal battle surrounding her demise is just beginning.
Stern, Smith’s former attorney and boyfriend, pleaded not guilty in May to charges of aiding and abetting Smith in obtaining controlled substances. But the Los Angeles district attorney’s office amended the complaint Wednesday to add more charges.
