Woodside noted nothing unusual in the room except the sleeping arrangements. "We don't usually have that happen, patients sleeping in the bed with relatives."

16. Doctor Lee Hern

Lab Director Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner's Office

Dr. Lee Hern testified that the primary factor of death was ingestion of a large dose of methadone. He did not believe Daniel to be habitual drug user.

Friend of Anna Nicole and Daniel Smith, son-in-law of G Ben Thompson

Mr. Shelley said Daniel wanted to be more independent, that he was a brilliant young man living in a shell due to his mother's fame.

Wednesday January 30, 2008

18. Gaither Ben Thompson (G. Ben Thompson)

Real Estate Developer and personal friend of Anna Nicole and Daniel Smith

G. Ben told the court that the last time he saw Daniel was the night before he died. He recalled that the 20-year-old was skinnier and a little paler than usual but was "extremely happy" to see his mother and his new sister. He testified that Howard K. Stern called him the day Daniel died. "Stern said, ‘Ben you need to get to the hospital as quick as you can. It’s not good’." Mr. Thompson said he arrived to find Ms. Smith screaming and holding on to her dead son as Stern looked on. He testified that he witnessed Stern take three to four pictures of the deceased because "they might be worth some money one day." The witness was adamant that Stern made the remark. "I was totally shocked he was taking pictures of a dead child lying in that bed," G. Ben said.

Cross-examination by Shaka Serville. Challenged G. Ben Thompson’s statement as to Stern’s reason for taking photographs and accused Thompson of having monetary reasons to slander Stern (who still has ownership of Horizons estate hung up in other court proceedings.)

19. Ben Thompson

Son of G. Ben, brother-in-law of Ford Shelley, real estate developer

Ben corroborated Shelley’s testimony regarding Stern having flushed two pills that fell out of Danny’s clothing and Stern’s statement, adding that the pills were egg shaped and white. He also stated it was he who had taken the photograph of methadone in the mini-fridge in Anna Nicole’s bedroom at the house. Note: This is the day Daniel died. Stern called Thompson Sr to come to the hospital, yet had a restraining order against them?

Cross-examination by Shaka Serville. Serville sought to show Smith had an injunction against the Thompson/Shelley family being on property and said that the methadone claims came after the legal fight over the house started. Note: Not true, the house dispute came while Anna Nicole was still pregnant. She got pissy when they wanted a note for 1.4 million and she knew they bought it for 900K. That's her whole "you used me" rant against Shelley on a film clip.

No word on whether the nannies testified as rumored yesterday.

The inquest resumes on March 17, 2008, when the last four witnesses, including Larry Birkhead and Howard K Stern are expected to be called to the witness stand.
