Since I don’t have time to read the thread tonight was wondering if anyone can tell me what channel the Anna Nicole Special-Her Last 24 Hours is on and wha time. I searched but couldn’t find it but have seen it advertised.
Bald Truth Exclusive: Doctor Kris Goes To Court; Anna Nicole Shrink Erosovich To See Raid Items

She was a doctor without a bag, a psychiatrist invited to examine a cardboard box of items seized by California drug agents investigating how she’d dispensed prescription meds to the late Playboy centerfold, and possibly others.
Only when Kristine Erosovich Tuesday walked into the empty Los Angeles courtroom of Judge Larry Paul Fidler, who had allowed the shrink and her lawyers to eyeball anything taken in the raid on her Studio City Home and request its return if it violated doctor patient confidentiality, she was surprised by what she saw: a prosecutor with an investigator eager to supervise. The special master appointed to protect the property had vanished.
“That wasn’t part of the deal,” she told me in an exclusive interview about her five minutes in court. “What if I pulled out letters or files and they accidentally saw someone not involved in the case? I didn’t want to put other patients’ privacy at risk.”
So, the doctor opted for the take-home option—a court officer would copy the material and let her review the copy in her lawyers’ office.
“We’ll foot the cost,” she told me afterwards, “and we won’t have to rush looking at it.”
If she spies any confidential property to challenge, Erosovich has to list it and submit it to the court by Dec. 5—and argue how its inclusion with prosecutors and agents with the California Bureau of Narcotics would violate a confidence.
Along with confidential letters and medical records, she says there are cds, dvds and personal photos, she wants back.
When she left the room, Erosovoich stumbled from one nightmare into another: a prospective juror in another case collapsed in the hall on the 9th floor outside the courtroom of Judge Fidler, who seems to inherit all the intriguing cases these days, from Phil Spector, to Dr. Khris.
“She was bleeding and it looked like she’d broken her nose,” Dr. Erosovich told me.
With court bailiffs clustered around, waiting for paramedics, the blond woman in the shimmering blue blouse went to work. “I’m a doctor,” she said quietly, pushing through the crowd, to sit down by the frightened woman and hold her hand.
“You’re going to be ok,” she said, doing a quick exam. “She was disoriented, and I could see she’d bitten her tongue.”
An apparent victim of a seizure, the juror said she couldn’t afford a hospital visit, but Dr. Kris was having none of that. She explained the situation to the medics, and said, “please don’t let her drive home.”
