Daniel was so excited about the birth of his new baby sister. He didn’t like to fly but on September 9th, 2006 he took a flight from California to Miami and on to the Bahamas. He arrived there and was taken by Howard K. Stern directly to the hospital to see his mother Anna Nicole Smith and the three day old baby who is now known as Dannielynn.
Daniel was not a drug user but less than 12 hours later, he was dead from a massive overdose of Methadone.
Hired gun pathologist, Cyril Wecht said Daniel died of a fatal combination of Methadone and an antidepressant. At an inquest into the death of Daniel, compelling testimony came from Dr. Lee Hearn, Director of the Toxicology Laboratory for Miami Dade County. He testified that, if not for the Methadone, Daniel would not have died.
I think someone wanted Daniel to die.
He would have been 24 years old today. I pray you rest in peace Daniel. Its a tragedy that our system failed you by never investigating why you had to die and who is responsible.
