Comments on: For Anna Nicole and Marshall Family: Justice Delayed, Justice Denied http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/proff/2009/03/31/for-anna-nicole-and-for-the-marshall-family-justice-delayed-justice-denied/ Sat, 11 Feb 2012 18:12:25 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: belicoso http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/proff/2009/03/31/for-anna-nicole-and-for-the-marshall-family-justice-delayed-justice-denied/comment-page-1/#comment-499378 belicoso Mon, 06 Apr 2009 23:17:51 +0000 http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/?p=92338#comment-499378 I think that Justice Kennedy's wise and appropriate decision to reject Howard's petition may prove to be one of the last blows necessary to finally defeat the frivolous claim against the Marshall Estate. After over a decade of Anna forum-shopping her claim around to any number of courts and never receiving a legitimate favorable decision, it seems that the Marshall family is very close to having this business behind them and to justice being served. I am sure the 9th circuit, where the case was remanded to, will deal a similar blow to the claim in court if Anna's estate decides to further her claim. I just hope that whomever is calling the shots with regards to that claim has a brain in their head and sees that they aren't merely trying to swim upstream but they're trying to swim up a waterfall and that their case is destined to receive an unfavorable judgment.

It's about time someone started talking about justice--albeit delayed--for the Marshall family! Bravo! It's about time someone started talking about justice–albeit delayed–for the Marshall family!

Still, is not a person who takes advantage of a person in a vulnerable state also responsible for their actions? As I recall, Stern assumed control over every tiny detail of Miss Smith's life towards the end. One only has to watch that video -- shot by Stern -- of a pregnant Anna Nicole Smith, apparently stoned and in clown makeup. Stern speculates on the video how much it will be worth. Yes, everyone must answer for their actions. It seems as though Stern may be providing a few answers soon to a court.

She made her bed, and she lied in it. She then suffered the consequences. And unfortunately, some of those around her suffered as well. On the other hand, maybe her daughter is better off (mean, I know, but probably true nonetheless). And unless someone here has some proof that the doctors and Stern held her down, and shoved those drugs down her throat, this is all conjecture. We should all be capable of making our own decisions. It's odd that a conservative site like this one is so quick to blame everyone for Smith's death except who really is to blame. I thought we left the finger-pointing to the liberals.

Justice is a tough term to deal with, even in theology. In the law, it's deadly. I've been watching this spectacle since it began, and I haven't found anyone to root for yet. Although I must admit I feel a certain schadenfreude watching the lawyer/participant in this magnum opus squirm. And if you think you're going to see solid law or even justice come out of the Ninth Circuit, I have some really bad news for you.
