Anna Nicole Smith's Scandalous Death - It was her Boyfriend who Prescribed her Those Drugs!

Anna Nicole Smith’s death remained scandalous in life and her death; her autopsy reports proved it. Model and Socialite Anna Nicole Smith, whose real name was Vickie Lynn Hogan, died in 2007, and her body was found in Seminole Hard Rock Cafe Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. She fought a long battle with drug and substance abuse and finally succumbed to it. Anna Nicole Smith was also a Playboy playmate and was often compared with Marilyn Monroe. (Image credit:MrPopOfficial) Though Smith has a private nurse in the casino with her, she was apparently left alone a few hours prior to her demise and was later found by the said nurse. The authorities were promptly informed, and her bodyguard tried to perform CPR. However, when she was sent to the hospital, it was already too late, and Anna was pronounced dead.

— E! Entertainment (@eentertainment) February 9, 2016 Authorities did not speculate about any foul play, and the press was informed of that during the press conference held by Seminole Police Chief Charlie Tiger and Broward Country Medical Examiner Dr. Joshua Perper. They informed the press that there had been no indication of foul play as there were no external bodily harm indication injuries or illegal drugs in such scenarios to reach the conclusions. However, still, to be on the safer side, the police were running the surveillance camera. While everyone was speculating as to what might happen, it was also reported to the public that Anna Nicole Smith was on many prescribed medications and was suffering from flu. Police didn't consider the flu to be the cause of death, and they didn't make the names of the medicine public either. After the autopsy reports were out and made public, it was clear that Anna Nicole Smith died due to a fatal combination of medicines.

According to the county medical examiner, the medicines Anna took included diazepam, lorazepam, and clonazepam. These are for anxiety and depression, and she was also prescribed chloral hydrate, a medicine to help her sleep. None of this medication was given in fatal doses, but the combination of anxiety and depression meds, along with sleeping aids, could have tipped the scale. The doctor also assumed that Anna had the habit of taking all the meds together, and she didn't think twice about adding her sleep aid to the mix. The autopsy report also confirmed that Anna was also suffering from flu at the time of her death. These medications on an already tired and fighting immune system could have tipped the scale and would have made it impossible for her to get back from chloral hydrate sedation.

It was possible that if Anna had not had a cold, she would have slept well and would not have needed her sleeping aid, and her body could have bounced back from the deadly combination. Even with sleeping aid in the deathly mix of prescribed drugs, Anna had a fighting chance to remain alive. However, her body, with already low immunity due to flu, stood no chance against her prescribed medication, and in the end, Anna Nicole Smith lost her life.
