Was Daniel Smith Murdered?!

The death of Anna Nicole Smith's son Daniel was first called a "heart attack," then called "unknown," and the latest word is that his death has been labelled "suspicious," and a planned formal inquiry could lead to criminal charges.

"Whenever there is a suspicious death we would have an inquest to determine how the person died," Bradley Neely, chief inspector of the Bahamas coroner's office, told AP Television News Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Smith is too overcome by grief to even talk about the cause of her son's death on Sunday, just three days after she gave birth to a baby girl, those close to the situation said Tuesday.

New York City-based TrimSpa CEO Alex Goen, for whose product Smith is a spokesperson, told CNN's Larry King that he had spoken to Smith only two hours before the broadcast. In their conversation, which lasted between 45 minutes and a hour, Goen said the distraught mother was "only coherent for about five minutes."

"It was a very emotional conversation," said Goen, who described himself as a friend as well as a business colleague of Smith's. "She broke down many times. The few times she was coherent she talked about her baby girl. She brightened up for a moment there, but then very quickly started thinking about Daniel and broke down immediately afterwards."

This whole thing is just so bizarre and horrifying. How can you enjoy spending time with a new baby when your son just died? If this death was a murder, let's hope they solve it soon.
