Daniel Smith was killed by a lethal drug mix, says pathologist

Lots of Anna Nicole Smith news today. Less than a day after Howard K. Stern revealed that he is the father of Smith's new daughter comes word that her 20-year-old son Daniel died from a lethal combination of methadone and two antidipressants.

Cyril Wecht, who was hired by Smith and Stern to do a private autopsy on Daniel, said that toxicology tests revealed that methadone, Zoloft, and Lexapro were in Smith's system when he died on Sept. 10, two days after half-sister Dannie was born. The article makes a point to say that methadone is used to treat heroin addictions. But it is also used as a perscription pain killer that, if it is prescribed or taken incorrectly, can easily kill someone, as 20/20 reported last Friday.

"The fact that we have these drugs and the levels of the drugs overwhelmingly and most logically point to this being a tragic, accidental, drug-related death," Wecht told the AP. There are many questions left to answer, of course, but at least what killed the poor kid has been answered.
