Anna Nicole's pathologist blames Daniel's doctors



The celebrated pathologist who Anna Nicole Smith hired to conduct a second autopsy on her tragic son Daniel's body has blasted the medic who prescribed the 20-year-old his killer cocktail of anti-depressants and painkillers.

Dr Cyril Wecht is convinced Daniel's death was caused by a lethal intake of methadone, Zoloft and Lexapro, which combined to cause a lethal cardiac arythmia.

Now Wecht is pointing the finger of blame at the doctor or doctors who prescribed the pills to Smith, insisting that although they're all legal drugs, they shouldn't be taken together.

Speaking to CNN newsman Larry Kingon Wednesday night, Wecht fumed: "You'd have to be totally negligent to prescribe all three drugs. No way.

"I would recommend anybody not to take even two drugs that work in this fashion… I'm sure that somebody failed to explain this to Daniel."

Wecht also agrees with Anna Nicole's longtime attorney and friend, Howard Stern, over his dmission he should have acted act when Daniel told him he felt really tired.

Stern was with the actress/model when she discovered her son's body slumped in a chair in her hospital bedroom - three days after she gave birth to her baby daughter Dannilynn.

Also speaking to King, Stern said: "At one point Daniel said to me: 'Howcome I'm so tired?' and, in hindsight, I wish I had seen that as some sort of signal."

Wecht reveals this was a clear sign that something was wrong: "His complaints of being tired, while… not at all strange for someone who has just flown cross-country from LA to Miami and then to Nassau.., this fits in.

"It's a restlessness, it's a drowsiness and it is associated with these kind of drugs."
