Daniel Smith inquest began today…and is already stalled

And so the Anna Nicole Smith saga continues, only this time regarding her late son. An inquest into the death of Anna Nicole’s 20-year-old son, Daniel Smith, who died in September, in a Bahamas hospital, stalled Tuesday before the court could even pick a jury.
Soon after the court convened, reporters were ordered to leave the courtroom when Wayne Munroe, a lawyer for the estate of Anna Nicole, asked the judge to consider a motion that “relates to the impaneling of a jury to act on this inquiry.”It is expected that the court could take at least another day to resolve the issue raised by Wayne Munroe and the inquest would not resume before Thursday. Jurors are excused until then.
The jury is expected to hear from dozens of witnesses, including Howard K. Stern, as they consider whether Daniel’s death should be ruled an accident, suicide or a homicide.In September, Dr. Cyril Wecht, a forensic pathologist hired by Anna Nicole herself, concluded that Daniel died from methadone and two antidepressants interacting in his system. But the case remains open, according to Bahamian authorities. The inquest is expected to last up to three to four weeks. If the jury finds criminal activity played a role, it would be up to the Bahamian attorney general’s office to pursue the case.

Solange Knowles chats about her little sinner

Singer/songwriter Solange Knowles, 20, and her husband Daniel Smith have trouble on their hands – their 2 year old son, Daniel Julez! Solange shares this story with People Magazine:

"[When Julez was 18 months old], our church service was during his usual naptime, so he was getting pretty grumpy. The pastor was saying his sermon, and he asked the congregation, ‘Do we have any sinners in the house today?’ and my son screams out, ‘YES!!’

Then Julez throws a cup over the balcony, where it hits someone on the head. Now whenever I walk into church, everyone is like, ‘No way I want to sit next to that kid!’"
