BALD TRUTH EXCLUSIVE: Virgie Lawyer Blast! Texan John O’Quinn Ain’t Got No Satisfaction, Long as Florida Gots Jurisdiction Over Him!
By Art Harris, © www.artharris.com
The Bald Truth has obtained billionaire Texas lawyer John OâQuinnâs blast back in the defamation suit filed against him by Anna Nicole Smith executor Howard K. Stern, an 11 page great ball of fire that argues Florida has zip jurisdiction over the mighty Texan and should kick Stern and his whiney complaint to the curb.
It’s all about the J word, he argues as a defendant filing a reply Thursday in federal court in Florida, where Stern has sued him for defamation for trashing him on talk shows as a “murderer.” Stern’s pitbull, lawyer Lin Wood, says JOq should pay big time for stepping waaaaaaay over the line.
Read our exclusive documentâOâQuinnâs reply to plaintiffâs memorandum of law oquincombined.pdf and count the reasons why Texas says Stern has no standing, and no case.
All JOQ argues he was doing when he called Stern a âmurdererâ was leveling the playing field of public opinion for his client, Virgie Arthur, and he insists thatâs as kosher as Texas toast.
âAn attorneyâs duties do not begin and end at the courtroom door,â his lawyer writes so eloquently. âAttorneys have a responsibility to preserve their clients zeaslouslyâŠand may be duty-bound to make statements to the media to protect a client such as Virgie Arthur, who had been subjected to considerable adverse publicity in the weeks heading up to OâQuinnâs retention.
âAt a minimum,â he argues. ââOâQuinn had the right to effectively âbalance the tables,â in advocating his clientsâ entitlement to assert her paramount interest in determing where her daughter was to be buried.â
Thatâs right, the not so subliminal message: put that dead blond beauty in Texas soil, in JOQâs backyard, where Virgie wanted and the next headline might be how jurisdiction helped Mama win a seat at the Marshall inheritance table.
We know she hasnât given up, and the Inquest will be the next front line in the war of the Texans. Consider this reply just a taste of what’s to come, give no quarter, and watch Team Virgie converge: weâre betting Splash, Rita, maybe even Texas, himself, if sheâs lucky, will be by her side.
In defending his right to call Stern a murderer, before and after the Florida investigation ruled out foul play in the accidental overdose of the actress, OâQuinn even quotes a law journal interview with his adversary , Lin Wood:
âAs an advocate for your client,â says the lawyer who defended the late Richard Jewell, Patsy and John Ramsey and others vilified in the media, âyouâve got to go out and litigate in the court of public opinion. Youâve got to take advantage of the willingness of the media to let you come on their airâŠto discuss your clientâs position in a high profile case,â
But Virgie as victim? Howie as killer, Larry as an unfit Gay Dad, c’mon, Texas, where the decency in any of this. Will Virgie say and do anything to find a path to the trough her daughter blocked in life? If there’s a will, JOQ may think he has the way, and so what if it’s down, dirty and as juicy as any Texas t-bone, he says he’s got The Law on his side.
Read on, stay tuned, weâve not heard the last from Texas. As a student of history, sounds like he not only remembers the Alamo, but aims to posture, filibuster and file as much paper as the judge will allow, to be the last lawyer standing, even if he has to kill a forest of trees tryng.

Oh dear, vergie makes me cringe. She has no class or dignity.
September 28th, 2007 at 5:49 am
Now ,you could not get it any clearer,why HOWARD KEPT VIRGIE AND FAMILY AWAY.she is the single most evil person,outside of OQ.IT IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HEARD,A LAWYER HAS A RIGHT TO GO ON NATIONAL TV,DESTROY A PERSON,S GOOD NAME,BECAUSE HIS CLIENT IS BEING TALKED ABOUT.VIRGIE, has used her past as a police officer to harass and try to destroy any one that gets in her way,BOY AM I GLAD THAT INQUEST WAITED A YEAR,CAN YOU EVEN THINK WHAT DANNIELYNN,S LIFE WOULD BE,WITH THAT PIECE OF GARBAGE I SAID IT BEFOE I WILL SAY IT AGAIN,THIS QUEST FOR THE MARSHALL MONEY GOES WAY BACK,ANNA KNEW IT,.To take a young man,who has just become a father,rip him apart,PUT OUT A FILTHY BOOK,ONLY SICKOS WOULD EVER HIRE RITA COSBY,IF SHE STILL HAS ANY STANDING WHATSOEVER.MY WISH IS WHOEVER THE JUDGE IS THAT HANDLES HOWARD CASE AGAINST OQ,HE WILL MAKE A EXAMPLE OF OQ, I HAVE ALSO LEARNED,IN TEX THE LAW CAN BE BOUGHT,NICE GOING VIRGIE
September 28th, 2007 at 5:56 am
I thought O’Quinn should have been disbarred. His remarks on the air have been totally defamatory and he should pay the price. He is a very sleazy lawyer with a sleazy past. It’s no wonder he is Virgie Arthur’s lawyer. Sleaze attracts sleaze. They are all in a conspiracy to discredit Howard and now Larry, so that Virgie will become executors of both estates and gain custody of Dannylynn. I certainly hope judges and jurys see through them.
September 28th, 2007 at 7:47 am
Vergie as a victim I don’t think so.And no where did it say
lin said you should tell lies ,slander and defame.From this filing we now know just why o’quinn wanted this suit in the Texas courts and in his home court.I just hope the Florida judges see the same thing as anyone else can see about the o’quinn team and why they really want it moved to Texas.It sure isn’t because more people are closer.
September 28th, 2007 at 8:33 am
Well, this just makes me want to curse! lol. He can holler and scream all he wants, but the damage has been done. He is going to have to pay. Candy will not save him this time from what he’s done. LOL
September 28th, 2007 at 8:48 am
O’Quinn is a bigger dip s**t than I thought. Now he readily admits saying the bs, but says it wasn’t harmful. Get that bs outta here! I hope and pray that Florida takes care of it and not Texas, where he perhaps has an edge. I live in Texas, my husband and son practice law here, so I know.
September 28th, 2007 at 8:56 am
Go Texas!!! I’m all for him. I hope Virgie is at the inquest. She’ll be the only one there truly representing Daniel, the rest will be skirming in their seats, I’m sure. I hope Texas and Virgie keep the pressure up!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 28th, 2007 at 9:24 am
R.I.P to all the trees who had to die to print this pile of hogwash. Mr. Wood, your move, I know you’ll make it a good one!
September 28th, 2007 at 9:31 am
So in other words … O’Quinn is stating the media made him do it ??? Sort of like Harding and the Aliens led him to believe …. uhuh uhuh.. or hell Donna Hogans claim that EQ and other smutt rags only run the truth so it must be first hand knowledge to her .. oh the list goes on and on … idiots
Too bad there is a lack of personal liability and accountability with these fools ….
How dare these idiots abuse the system and use such pitiful excuses to permit their behaviour … ughhh
I wouldnt let my 9yr old away with this filth, how dare another permit such from a “grown adult” ughh
O’Quinn may be a loud mouth like the rest of em and be able to make excuses at the drop of a hat but I do truly hope that the legal system that ensures society’s rights see’s through this cockamaimy for what it truly is .. EXCUSES !!!
Time for all these players to get a time out …. brats spoiled spoiled BRATS!
And the filth Vergie hopes to get from her “public opinion” is right where it should be … she didnt give a DAMN about Daniel before nor about Anna … until the dollar signs started shining did she (vergie) decide to play the caring loving devoted mother role … how dare such a creature be permitted to procreate … ughhh …a speck of dung upon society’s shoes is what she is ….
The whole lot of them need to go to a burn unit or a hospice to see what true helplessness is … to see the hurt caused to another … and HOPEFULLY they will catch a clue ….
Thanks Art, I needed my morning rant … You have again succeeded in getting the TRUTH & FACTS out there … Keep up the good work … Karma is a wonderful thing …. Lets hope the process is sped up for this crew of losers!
September 28th, 2007 at 9:37 am
Hi Art: When O’Quinn made his statements on national television, I immediately thought that what he was saying was defamatory and contacted the Texas State Bar through their web site. At the time I did this, it was unknown to me that he had had other problems with the State Bar.
IMO, his comments were unprofessional and a violation of the Code of Ethics. O’Quinn should not be allowed to get away with this deplorable behavior and it is my hope that HKS prevails!
In addition, is there any way that when you mark documents with the “Art Harris” logo, you could do it in a way that the document can still be read. I find it frustrating that I am unable to read anything with this logo on top of it. Thank Art!
Have a wonderful day!
September 28th, 2007 at 10:10 am
hi art. thanks for the information. i hope they nailed oquinn to the wall. he should have pay for what he did to stern. if i remember correctly, howard didn’t address the media while he was in court fighting for the remains of anna nicole smith. the things printed about vergie had to do with her statements on the stand and comments and questions by the attorneys involved with the case. am i wrong? it was vergie and her attorneys that started the smear campaign. if i remember correctly howard was just defending himself. he has only give maybe three interviews since anna death. once when he was reunited with dannielynn in the bahamas. and about the breakin. outside the court house in the bahamas where he standed he wouldnt fight for custody and would help larry get full custody. then in june when anna will was probated and the interview at dannielynn birthday party referring to rita crosby book. he is letting his lawyers do the talking for him. i just wish larry would do the same. vergie is just waiting for larry to mess up. but larry loves his daughter and has the right to raise her. vergie needs to drop the lawsuit, which she stated on the greta show it was just a formailiy. which is it vergie? you can’t have it both ways.
art, what happened in the contempt case on sept 26th. did g.ben thompson show up this time? does this mean he won’t be there for the inquest? i don’t understand why people find it hard to believe that daniel’s death was accidental. anna nor howard would never ever hurt daniel. the inquest has people up there as witnesses that have already been caught in lie after lie. and how can rita crosby take credit for getting the inquest put on the books? the bahamas was looking for a new judge to oversee the procedure.
September 28th, 2007 at 10:13 am
So O’Quinn is seriously claiming that calling Howard a murderer was “leveling the playing field of public opinion for his client”? He can’t possibly be using that as his defense. It’s laughable.
All O’Quinn calling Howard a murderer did for Virgie was lead the public to believe that she’s got a hack for an attorney. That’s how I felt when I heard him call Howard a murderer. I wondered how an attorney could be so stupid as to step over the line so publicly. Even Opri had the “sense” to whisper the “murderer accusation” under her breath and away from the cameras so it would only be their word against hers.
September 28th, 2007 at 10:14 am
#3 belle, Nothing from nothing leaves nothing. Vergie is nothing, knows nothing and will get nothing! She and O’Quinn both had better take lots of sugar, it could be a long day.
September 28th, 2007 at 10:46 am
Thanks Art for this one.
UNBELIEVABLE! So, his defense is that VA didn’t have a snowball chance in Hell and had no legal standing in any of it; thus, he had a fool for a client and she had a fool for a lawyer.
September 28th, 2007 at 11:39 am
Belle, you can’t be serious. If you think Virgie is representing Daniele, you must have gotten into O’Gin’s bottle. Virgie hadn’t seen Daniele in over 10 years (at his request). She is the biggest phony of all times.
September 28th, 2007 at 12:08 pm
I think at the time O’Quinn was riding the wave of the media frenzy. That and his own arrogance made him think he was untouchable. Then Lin Wood appears and the media scurried back into their little holes leaving O’Quinn to paddle to shore in a very leaking boat.
Down and dirty is the game. Texas lawyering seems pretty rough and tumble. I ran across this. It’s Joe Jamail taking a deposition. Jamail represented the clients that O’Quinn bilked in the breast implant settlement. I think Wood’s style is a wee bit different.

September 28th, 2007 at 12:50 pm
TO BELLE,4 I too hope VIRGIE is at the inquest,i think she needs TO BE DISGRACED IN PUPLIC,JOHN O QUINN BETTER PRAY HE KEEPS HIS LAW LICENSE.HE IS A DIGRACE TO THE PROFESSION.THE FOOL IS USING EVERY METHOD TO STALL HOWARD,S COURT CASE .I THINK YOUR CONFUSED,THE PRESSURE IS ON OQ,NOT HOWARD
September 28th, 2007 at 12:51 pm
More than likely O’Quinn is playing the odds, hoping to delay these proceedings until after the inquest is a done deal in the Bahamas. If things don’t go well there for Mr. Stern (for some biased miscarriage of justice) then possibly O’Quinn’s position will improve in the defamatory case.
September 28th, 2007 at 1:21 pm
RE: #6
Very interesting! “…OâQuinn made his statements on national television, I immediately thought that what he was saying was defamatory and contacted the Texas State Bar through their web site.”
My question is: I WONDER IF ANYBODY ELSE CONTACTED THE TEXAS BAR? WOULD THOSE COMPLAINTS BE PUBLIC? COULD HKS & LW USE THESE COMPLAINTS IN ANY WAY FOR THEIR CASE?
Boy, I’d like to read these! I remember when I first heard JOQ on Greta, I said out loud; “That’s against the law! You can’t accuse people of first degree/premeditated murder on national television!”
#3 Belle; I do NOT BELIEVE that Virgie cared until she thought she might have leverage w/ANS daughter after Anna passed. If ANS was alive, she would NOT even be in the picture. ANS made it clear on national TV that she NEVER wanted Virgie NEAR her daughter. Your comments BLOW ME AWAY! Why did a ‘loving grandma’ sell a bunch of pictures to a tabloid? This was done before Anna died. I could go on and on, but I know the legal system will see thru virgie & joq! Just like Florida courts did by not giving the estranged biological mother any say to oppose ANS wishes on where she wanted to be buried! THE ESTRANGED MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER HAVE NO RIGHTS TO ANNA’S ESTATE, THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS TO WHERE SHE WANTED TO BE BURIED, THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS IN HOW DANNIELYNN IS TO BE RAISED or HOW DANNIELYNN’S INHERITANCE IS TO BE SPENT, AND VIRGIE AND DANIEL’S BIOLOGICAL FATHER HAVE NO RIGHTS IN WHERE DANIEL WAS BURIED! These people have no rights because they weren’t around for over 10 years - Anna & Daniel CHOSE NOT TO BE AROUND THESE PEOPLE!! Both Daniel and Anna were over 18 years old! Besides look at Virgie’s proven track record!
How could anyone think this woman is truly concerned about this boy that she took care of for a few years? I’m sure ANS paid good money for her to watch Daniel when he was young and Anna was trying to make something of herself. Ask yourself why ANS ‘CUT OFF VIRGIE’, my quess is because her so called family KEPT ASKING FOR HANDOUTS!
September 28th, 2007 at 1:42 pm
“Sheâll be the only one there truly representing Daniel”
Yes because she and Daniel where so close. I mean, I’ve seen Zeros of pictures of them together.
The rest will be squirming in their seats huh? Who was it that Judge Sielden found to be “less than credible” again??…hmm… was it Birkhead?…”The Court finds Birkhead’s testimony to be generally credible.” No. ..Was it Stern?… “….On this particularn issue, the Court find Stern’s testimony extremely credible.” No. Hmmm… I just can’t quite…”The Court finds that Arthur’s testimony to the effect that she had not received and had no anticipation of receiving remuneration arising from the death of Anna Nicole Smith or her subsequnt burial to be less than credible…Given the number of persons seated at Arthur’s table in the court room,the Court finds it curious that it was necessary that a journalist’s vehicle was required to take Arthur to the viewing. Indeed, the court it troubled by the fact that Arthur chose to ride in the particular vehicle less than an hour after agreeing in a telephonic hearing with the Court that “all circumstances of and events relating to” that viewing were “strictly confidentail. and that she was “not to discuss or disclose any of these circumstances and events with any persons (including both individulas and legal entities.”

belle you are truly an IDIOT. Virgie “oink” Arthur hasnt seen Daniel since he was 6. She represents herself and her drooling snout and giant greedy hands.She NEVER BOTHERED to see him when he was alive because she wasnt offered enough money. Now she uses his grave as her private “piggy bank “whenvever she needs some cash. I wonder how big the indent is going to get from her plopping her big fat ass on his resting place??. There’s nothing like STABBING the ground with plastic urine colored flowers, to say ‘loving gramma was here.’
‘Mommie Dearest’ is too flattering to use as her nickname if you ask me……….

September 28th, 2007 at 2:41 pm
Art,
QUESTION:
IF O’QUINN & VIRGIE WERE SO ‘CONCERNED’ WITH DANNILYNN’S SAFTEY, THEN WHY APPEAL THE BAHAMIAN COURT WHEN THEY RULED THAT LARRY COULD TAKE HIS DAUGHTER TO THE U.S.?
pg. 8 of 11
“…O’Quinn was entitled to discuss the fact that his client was concerned for her granddaughter’s safety, since the infant remained in the care of an individual who was the subject of wide-spread speculation and allegations.”
__________________________________________________________
This would have left her in Howard’s care for a great deal of more time, until further court hearings were dealt with.
Virgie herself said on that interview w/ Greta that she wasn’t trying to take Dannielynn and raise her, though if she had to she would…she said something to the effect that she was worried when Dannielynn was 14 she might want a porshe (some kind of expensive car) can’t remember the make. I’ll have to try & locate the transcripts on that interview - it really showed that her only concern was having a say in how Dannielynn’s money would be spent!
Again, I’ll state my opinion that HKS will make sure that Dannielynn has an estate when she becomes of age, and Larry will make sure that little girl grows up with a good education along with his family, little cousins, aunts & uncles, and so forth showing her ‘unbiased’ true love for just being Larry’s child. She wouldn’t get this from the Texas crowd - Anna knew that, and Anna told the world through the ET interview with Mark.
September 28th, 2007 at 3:23 pm
I am from Texas also. When I heard him say those things, along with other things on the shows, I was sick to my stomach. No matter how you look at it, it was not right. period. And as far as him now referring to Virgie being as good as texas toast. Well, texas toast is BAD for you, white bread, the butter will harden your arteries, and it is fattening! LOL It is usually served with chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. So, that does not say a lot about Virgie, now does it?
September 28th, 2007 at 5:08 pm
Maybe if more people contacted the Texas state bar association something will get done
September 28th, 2007 at 6:30 pm
You’re up s***screek Mr. O’Quinn. I have been following this whole saga since before Anna died and not once did I ever hear HOWARD say anything bad about Virgie Arthur. It was always Anna Nicole that was out talking smack about her. And that wasnt until it Virgie Arthur was out talking smack about Anna and Howard. Even when Howard was under oath and had the the chance to tell the world the horrors he knew about VA, he was STILL respectful.
And good luck trying to explain away the fact that Vergie “Im scared for my granddaughter’s life in Howards’ care” Arthur tried a last minute appeal that would have kept DL in the Bahamas with Howard so Larry couldn’t take her out of the country.
September 28th, 2007 at 7:39 pm
#19 Ann Is that really a transcript of a deposition.If so I sure wouldn’t want to have to go to texas for a deposition.Down and dirty is right,but maybe that is how Jamail won his case. More power to him .At least he put o’quinn in his place.It is a good thing some things from the past are bought up.Peopel forget what VA really did after this much time has passed and she has kept her head down more or less anyway. As far as a card or gift for Dannielynn,she never sent any to daniel while he was alive why would she change her behavior now,except maybe to make herself look better.LOL
September 28th, 2007 at 7:50 pm
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,269821,00.html
I found the transcript!
Looks like I mis-spelled porsche…It is in the middle of the page: (Virgie’s words):
“ARTHUR: That money is tainted. I have no desire for that money. However, Larry is still young. And all I asked Larry to do was to have someone on his side of the family, like his father or his mother and myself, be overseers of her money. Not where we could write checks or we could do anything with the money, no. But before she could do anything with the money or he could do anything with the money, that, you know, something big like, you know, she wants a Porsche at 14, you know, it would have to go through his dad and me and we would say, no, at 14 you are not getting a Porsche, so no. But it wasn’t…”
——————————————————–
Great interview! I had forgot all the goodies Greta got out of her…even though I’ve never been a great fan of GVS - I think she revealed some ‘true colors’ in this interview.
[ "overseers" my a$$ ] LOL
LEGAL QUESTION -Isn’t someone who keeps track of someone’s estate get a big fat income for doing so? The title of the person escapes me, maybe probate something??
September 28th, 2007 at 8:57 pm
Dear Mr Wood,
Find O”quinns weak point and use it against him, pulverize him. This man is nothing short of a Texas redneck bigot and he deserves what ever is coming his way. In fact yall might want to find out how close he is to a certain Marshall relative, I feel a conflict of interest coming on.
Virgie now come on you knew that Anna and you did not get along for years, in her distress she calls you when her son dies and what do you do Virgie? Remember… we all do, shame on you Virgie shame on you, for not going and rescuing your daughter sooner, and your money sucking family. If you really loved her she and Daniel would be alive today if you were not so dysfunctional yourself.
for all of you that did not see it, go on You tube it is there for your entertainment viewling type in” Virgie Arthur “you can all her videos there warning it will make you sick!
For all of you that bought that book take it back to the store like I did and say it was not biographical it is fiction and lies. Get a gift card if you have to buy something else. If enough people do this her sales go down. I have even taken the books and put them in the language sections where I live…Like where the Chinese is and put them behind the front book…i did it a few days ago and was able to hide at least 15 books. Untill someone needs to learn Chinese I guess it won’t be missed.
September 28th, 2007 at 9:28 pm
I can’t believe O’Quinn actually thought that by calling someone a “murderer”, was leveling the playing field. What an idiot he is for even saying something so asinine. He went way over the top in calling Howard the “m” word. It was just despicable! I was watching him on some show once and as soon as he said that, I switched channels and never watched any of those programs again. O’Quinn and his client are the biggest jokes in Texas. O’Quinn doesn’t seem to have much intelligence. One has to wonder how he made it through law school.
Protect Dannielynn, I love the way you describe Virgie. It’s so her, right down to the last “oink” lol.
I don’t know why anyone would even think Virgie would ever get any kind of control over Dannielynn or her money. She has proven over and over again to the whole world, what she is, and that isn’t much lol. She is the lowest of low. I never knew there was any woman on this earth as low as Virgie. She doesn’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell to get her grubby fat fingers on anything, except maybe O’Quinn, lol.
I think Belle and Peggy must be relatives of Virgie’s.

You must be one of Virgie’s few friends. I pity you.
September 28th, 2007 at 10:18 pm
Dannielynn is going to grow up and sooner than we all think. When this child is an adult does Virgie honestly think that her beautiful Grandchild will not see all she is doing now and how much pain and anquish she is causing Larry, Howard who raised her the first few months of her life see with her own beautiful eyes and KNOW the stories that Anna Nicole told everyone about Mommy Dearest are true? What goes around comes about and one day Virgie will get back all the heartache she is causing everyone now and that poor child in the future. Dannielynn lost her Mother, her Brother for God’s sake be there for her as a Grandmother should be and stop this nonsense. IF Virgie loved Anna at all she would get her principles straight and think of her Grandchild and ONLY her Grandchild. This to me shows her interest is money only. When my Sister passed away my Mother clung to her Granddaughter even though she was grown because she was a part of her own Daughter which she had just lost. Have some class Virgie and be what you should be a Grandmother and love Dannielynn and not just what she may be worth or being in the public eye. IF you love Daniel as you say you do then remember Daniel and Anna are watching you from above and everything you are doing. Would she be proud or ashamed? Make up NOT being there for your Daughter by being a Grandmother to Dannielynn.YOUR actions and behavior are a disgrace as a Mother, Grandmother and the the human race entirely!
September 28th, 2007 at 10:36 pm
Seems like Mr. O’Quinn feels he has “braggin’ rights”
and can say whatever he pleases..Remember he is “Texas”!!
Definitely stepping over the line by calling HKS a
“Murderer”! In our part of Texas this is considered
disgraceful!!! He needs to pay!!!!!
September 29th, 2007 at 2:11 am
Unfortunately we have to endure “one step at a time” with the legal system of America/Bahamas. Everyone knows that the “Bitches of Birkwick” {namely Arthur, Cosby & Dopey”} are out for money! Everyone knows that HK$ was negligent with his care for ANS. It’s like Aruba…the Bahamas botched the death of Daniel and Dr. Perper botched the death of ANS. Give Larry a chance to raise his daughter, please convict HK$ of at least Negligence…?
HK$ is a sad and sorry individual..living off the money of ANS…he is NO BETTER THAN A PIMP!!!
September 29th, 2007 at 4:59 am
Dear Art,
I’m still reading your articles and the comments…well, I admit I’m only scanning to read something you wite…because the rest is tripe.

Missy weeps good for you you fought ack in the way you could. Beth Yes I do believe they get paid for this HKS said he would do it for nothing.Did anyone hear VA say the same NO!!!!Lisa T what a great and thoughtful post.
September 29th, 2007 at 3:22 pm
This is to Virgie:
Please don’t ever defile the Bible again by holding it in your greedy, devilish hands while sitting at the grave of your daughter and grandson, pretending you actually cared for either of them and being paid, yet, to do this horrendous act.
You are the most vile, despicable person I’ve ever had the displeasure of seeing anywhere. You didn’t care one iota for either Anna or Daniel. You have shown the whole world that, over and over. It’s time to stop this depravity now!
Howard knew you for what you are and now the world knows also. How can any mother do what you did the day Anna was buried, by shoveling all that dirt (not just one shovelfull the way you were supposed to)and then stomping right over the grave. As long as I live, I’ll never forget that horrible scene and I’m sure Howard will never forget either. He had to stand there watching you do this vile deed. My heart ached for him when I saw him watching you. He was so much in pain to begin with, and then the look on his face as he watched you, just broke my heart. I’m glad they didn’t show a close up of him just then or I wouldn’t have been able to bear it.
Virgie,you are the poorest excuse for a human being on the face of this earth. You are hoplessly lost. Hell almost sounds too good for you.
September 29th, 2007 at 9:05 pm
I remember that interview with Virgie when she said larry was still young. Implying at his age he cant handle money(how old is he and how many ADULTS his age still have mommy handling their finances?
Shes whacked.
I do have a question(more a statement) Anna was in SC and then the Bahamas for sometime. About 4 months?Away from Howard away from Anna. Why didnt Daniel the adult he was contact grandma? For two years he was an adult why didnt he contact her? Maybe he didnt want anything to do with her in life so why would he in death. Go Away Virgie!
September 30th, 2007 at 1:18 am
Time will tell all. Rita Cosby will be broke after being cleaned out by lawsuits. Debra Opri, too, she will be scrounging for clients. VA will just be more of an embittered old battle-ax, LB will probably marry the woman he’s been seeing for sometime, and give Dannielynn a sibling, and hopefully, HKS will be able to pick up the pieces of his life, meet someone nice,and father a child that will be his this time. LB already has his child, and it looks like Dannielynn will have a good life with him.

Please remember the good in people is always stronger than the bad. I believe Howard, Dannielynn & even Larry will come out of this mess. Most people do see right through Virgie Arthur!

The debate over who is worse than whom in this case is hilarious and ridiculous–as far as I can tell, they are ALL guilty of one thing or another, most egregiously, exploiting a child for money.

AMEN JONI !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU
I could not have said it better myself .. you have captured the greed and vile acts of such a scorned woman right down to the money grubbing fingers ….
More ppl need to see her for what she is … she definately is the ppl she surrounds herself with … it shows more and more each day ….
THANK YOU JONI !!! For being the voice, stating what most if not all of us are thinking
September 30th, 2007 at 11:19 am
You Gooooo Joni!!! Very true. Howard has …Us (all of his supporters) and his family. We see clearly and anyone else who doesn’t is as loony as Virgie.
September 30th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
I would hope the people in the Bahamas saw Vergie for what she is with this second set of splash pictures a bible toten granny just to score some points

Joni #38, You are the most vile, despicable person I’ve ever not had the pleasure of reading anywhere. You didn’t nor do you now care one iota for either Anna, Daniel or Dannilynne. Otherwise you would want to see justice done and stop letting the venom spew out of your vicious mouth. If I was a betting person I would say your real name is BS or HKS.

I read an interesting article about OâQuinn dating back to 1998. Most of you have probably read it, but it gives an insight into how he operates , and why he tries so hard to have the defamation suit transferred to Texas.
Excerpt from: http://www.chron.com/content/chronicle/page/98/01/11/0.html
âIt is telling that one of the first stories about O’Quinn to see print concerned a complaint by the Harris County district clerk in early 1986 that his firm was filing multiple lawsuits arising out of the same case, knowing that the suits would end up in different courts. The plaintiffs would then dismiss all the suits except the ones in the most favorable courts. The technique smacked of blatant judge shopping. â .
\
My feeling regarding OâQuinnâs statement âto level the playing field for his clientâ is that after his clientâs background became public, the only way to overcome all the sordid family background was to resort to the most damaging charge available, which was murder. That is very sad!
Why the Texas State Bar allows him to prevail in all charges that have been brought against him in the past is beyond me. He knew what he was doing by spreading his âphilanthropy âaround.

Joni #38, you are the poorest excuse for a human being on the face of this earth. You are hopelessly lost. Hell almost sounds too good for you.
October 1st, 2007 at 10:24 am
Oh Gidget please!, I dont know who you’re trying to kid?!You are so part of the Virgie Arthur crew! It’s one thing for Howard and Larry supporters to bicker back and forth about stupid crap every now and then but I dont think even the most die hard Howard supporter would prefer Mommy Dearest to have custoy of Dannielynn over Larry! not a one! And I still want to cry every time I see a picture of DL with Larry! I’d rather cry seeing a picture of DL with Larry than have a stroke seeing a picture of DL with Virgie Arthur!
I’d be willing to bet that if Larry Birkhead went to Howard and said that he decided to move to the ohter side of the world to raise DL to keep her safe from VA/YOU which meant that Howard would never be able to see her again Howard would still tell Larry to go!
Who was it who gave Mommy Dearest that nick name again?? oh yes. It was her daughter.
October 1st, 2007 at 11:27 am
LOL Gidget, you would be wrong, as usual.
October 1st, 2007 at 11:30 am
Gidget, please, do bet all you have, and lose it all. I’ve never met BS ( I’m assuming you’re referring to Larry Birkhead) nor have I ever met Howard, however much I’d love to.
I’m quite flattered that you have chosen my own words, even if it was to throw back at me LMAO. Couldn’t think of any yourself? ROFL
October 1st, 2007 at 11:32 am
Gidget, It would seem as though I’ve really hit a very raw nerve with you. Perhaps you are really Virgie?
October 1st, 2007 at 2:03 pm
Gidget is screaming for ATTENTION!!
October 1st, 2007 at 2:48 pm
You are wrong Gidget on both oounts We all want justice .It is just that the justice we believe in may not be what you wish it to be,VA team is out to destroy LB and his daughter any way they can and do not care how it is done.AS for vile remarks go on any site about Dannielynn and LB and read the degrading remarks not only about LB but people calling his daughter a downs syndrome baby, ect.That child is an innocent in this mess which VA has proven time and again she is no.Remember her and Donnie admitted to the abuse and rape in that family.No wonder ANS was shaking with radge when she told about these things that had happened to her.
October 1st, 2007 at 2:49 pm
Sorry shaking with rage not radge
October 1st, 2007 at 3:04 pm
Art just read where there is to be some kind of party with Rita cosby and Edstrom,with some others included.They say they will have a surprise guest.my question.is are you invited or like DO no coment from Rita cosby to you LOL
October 1st, 2007 at 4:11 pm
To #48; I’d like to know who made you God? As most people who do believe in some higher being as the ‘Judge’ of how we are as people… You can disagree all you want with whatever anyone says. I do not believe that you have the right to ‘personally attack’ a person’s views! Hell, look at all the wrongful personal attacks and wrongful accusations about Howard from those Texas people! How do I know those people are wrong? Because one by one they have been proven wrong - in the legal court system and the majority of the ‘court of public oppinion’! So, be careful…you have no control of who goes to hell and of who is lost or not. “Choose your words carefully, or you might have many enemies.”
October 1st, 2007 at 4:30 pm
I see “aunt” gidget is back with the personal attacks and insults. What a hoot!
October 1st, 2007 at 4:37 pm
I believe a large part of Vergie’s behaviour is the result of having little/no contact with ANS for so many years and then toward the end, being heavily influenced by the likes of Mark Hatten and his sister who no doubt told her “lies and embellished stories” because they have a grudge against HKS, big ditto Larry at the time, another big ditto Ford Shelly and GBT, and OQ who is probably heavily connected to the Marshall’s who do not want to part with their $$$ - no way.
The rest of her behaviour is the the result of her own life/family experiences which certainly don’t sound like the norm. At this point I believe Anna would rather have us pray for her than spew forth further hate.
October 1st, 2007 at 6:45 pm
Gidget #46 & #48. Good grief! We heard you the first time! Really, who are you anyway? You are the one who is LOST and you have proven that with every post you have ever made on this site. Joni has it right and has had it right from day one. She is all about the truth and YOU can’t change the truth no matter how badly you wish it were different.
Joni #39….. As usual, I totally agree with you. It was hard for us to watch what was SUPPOSED to be the total distruction of Howard and it seems it’s even harder for Gidget and a few others to accept and face the truth about Virgie.
October 1st, 2007 at 9:02 pm
Gidget -
I wouldn’t go that far, but I’d say it sounds like Joni definitely has some mother issues. LOL
Joni, dear, get a life. If you get that worked up over somebody youâve never even met, Iâd hate to live next door to you and tick you off.

RE: Rita’s party
I read it was changed to Oct. 6th, and about 700 people were supposed to be there. Read it on rosespeaks.com on the blog. I assume it is for her book of fables…
Someone stated something to the effect; Wouldn’t it be nice if Rita got served at her party?
Where is Lin Wood when you need him?
ART, ANY UPDATED NEWS?? Thanks.
October 2nd, 2007 at 4:34 am
DearArt
You cover such good stories on LB and HKS, and their struggles with Cosby’s book that is full of allegations. And you cover their stories with VA, and her 1 sided battle for custody of Dannielynn, and Debra Opri, and her double-billing schemes. You cover stories of OJ Simpleton
and his sting operation at a Las Vegas hotel. You also cover stories about the still ongoing investigation into the death of Princess Diana. You cover stories about celebrities, and their troubles with law and lawsuits. And
you do it in a fair and ethical way. Now there’s a big story breaking about Britney Spears, and her kids being taken away from her, because as of late, the California
family courts do not think her kids are safe with her, because she does not follow the courts orders. She will not take the drug and alcohol tests that the judge in the case orders her to take. She could be ANS’s little sister at the rate she is going. The children’s father, K-Fed has
been demanding primary custody for weeks, and he finally got what he wanted. Behind this turnaround is a former body
guard of Britney’s who was coming out with all kinds if scary stuff, and Gloria Allred is his lawyer. This is some tale. And I think that only you would cover it in a fair and diplomatic way. This poor Britney is getting bashed to pieces-at the moment, she is a mentally unwell girl. Why don’t you cover her story, and add some more stories to you website? Unless that is not your territory. But it’s only an idea, Art. I hope you or someone close to your website will read this comment I am leaving, and maybe leave an e-mail at my e-mail address.
I suggest this because Britney seems to be so much like Anna Nicole. I probably may not hear anything from you, because you and your staff may be too busy.
October 2nd, 2007 at 5:35 am
The more i think of what is bothering me the more questions are comming up.ONE is Virgie connection with the police department. the average person would have not had as much access to as many law enforcement personal.SECOND I am angry,because DON CLARK,who was a former F.B.I. AGENT, now using his FORMER title,to spear head VIRGIE,S CAUSE.TO ME IT IS DISCUSTING,When appearing on tv, he should say who he is working for,and it is not the F.B.I. IT IS MISLEADING. THIRD no wonder OQ wants texas,all VIRGIE,S COHARTS ARE THERE, UNLESS THERE IS A FEDERAL CRIME,VIRGIE,S SON HAS NO AUTHORITY, IT MAKES ME ILL,TO THINK WHAT SHE HAS GOTTEN AWAY WITH,IT SHOWS TIME AND TIME AGAIN,HOW UNDERHANDED LAW ENFORCEMENT IN TEXAS HAS GOTTEN.
October 2nd, 2007 at 5:52 am
I ALSO FORGOT,HOW CAN YOU CALL A LOADED GUN IN HER PURSE,FIXED TO GO OFF AT ANY TIME,NO SAFTY ON,A ACCIDENT?I NEED SOMEONE TO EXPLAIN.
October 2nd, 2007 at 8:31 am
Gidget, Danielle and the likes thereof, I’m the one that YOU wouln’t want to live next to. LOL

October 2nd, 2007 at 11:26 am
Well, It looks like Virgie actually has a couple of supporters, lol. Now that is scary, lol.
October 2nd, 2007 at 11:28 am
Danielle,
The “mother issues” I have is with that poor excuse of a mother that Anna had.
October 2nd, 2007 at 11:41 am
Anne,
Thank you and I also agree with you. I believe what I said about Virgie is the truth, or I wouldn’t have said it. I don’t deal with lies.
Everyone has seen her track record with her children and it’s a horror story and a true one at that. I guess the truth can hurt and some just plain don’t want to believe it.
October 2nd, 2007 at 1:44 pm
GO Joni Go!! Keep telling it ..we agree with you!!

Unfortunately we have to endure âone step at a timeâ with the legal system of
——————————-
Anna was an adult and Howard was not responsible for controlling her thoughts and actions. You might be better off monitoring those kangaroos in Australia than commenting stupidly.
October 2nd, 2007 at 4:51 pm
God forbid if the people on here are going to be the ones who think they can help Britney Spears. Leave it to the professionals folks. None of you are qualified that is for sure, least we have another drug death.
October 2nd, 2007 at 4:53 pm
LOL EJ. Thank you. I certainly wouldn’t mind living beside you.
Danielle, I have wonderful neighbors and we get along beautifully and have been doing that for 30 years. You have no idea what I’m like. I don’t get “ticked off” the way you would like to believe. Maybe that’s the kind of person YOU are.
I just stated what a hateful person Virgie is and she isn’t fooling ANYONE, except herself, maybe. I can’t help what she is, only she can do that. She will never get near that baby. She has no right. Being a grandmother doesn’t give you natural rights to a grandchild. She has to earn the right, by showing she is a good person (lol) and has no ulterior motives in wanting that child. She has shown everyone the only thing she wants is some kind of control of any money DL may have or receive.
October 2nd, 2007 at 5:59 pm
Beth Yes would be very comical if it could be arranged to have her served at her so called party. LOL
October 2nd, 2007 at 10:03 pm
I was just reading over all the posts and I want to thank everyone who backed me in my post to Virgie. I only told the truth. She’s the one who made it all true.
Gidget, I thought you meant Birkhead when you said BS, but now I think you must have meant Bonnie. You are definately someone who hates both Bonnie and Howard, so if you aren’t Virgie, you are someone very close to her in some way. You are making this very personal toward Howard and his sister for some reason. You are also very vile for saying the things to me that I said about Virgie. She’s the one who has done all these things, not me. She’s the one who has been on TV saying and doing all these terrible things.
October 3rd, 2007 at 8:56 am
Gidget the poster just wondered if Art could give both sides of the sad story.Brittany needs to realise she needs help before she can be helped.I will also say your favorite was gloating over the fact that a troupe associate was Spears Attorney and she lost her children to kevin.She did not show up for a court appointed drug and alcohol test,plus a body guard testified about the drug use. That is why she lost her child,At least for now.At least she had the sense to know whe was not the best person to take care of them at this time and gave them to Kevin early.Brittany needs a support system which she does not have at this time
October 3rd, 2007 at 4:02 pm
I think sometimes when people post the comments they are addressing are in moderation ,therefore when they are taken out of moderation the numbers change.That is why I also put a name now
October 3rd, 2007 at 8:33 pm
Poor Gidget, maybe they will understand you better at TMZ?
October 8th, 2007 at 12:30 am
Art do you trace IP’s? Cuz that would be really cool but mostly funny. Especially when different names post 10 minutes apart and sound just like the previous poster with a different name. It always has amazed me how much time some lonely people have to play games..
Joni I agree with everything you say and most of us would back you up no matter who came at you. Obviously people who know this is a Howard supporting site have stopped by and left long ago although we invite them to post…but they arent sado/masochists and continue to stay and say vile things about a man we know is innocent of any wrong doing and had more love for one woman than these sado/maso’s have ever had in their whole life..so the S&M’s come here and go on and and on and on and on and on hurting and stirring just waiting for the ass whooping that awaits…then come back with some brilliant response of how awful we are??? Well you are the one that came here reading knowing full well we are passionate about Anna and Howard and Dannielynn and still choose to type what you type and continue to day in and day out!!! So who is the awful one? Kinda wacky if you ask me..
October 9th, 2007 at 10:17 pm
Thanks Amy.
October 13th, 2007 at 3:17 pm
Virgie reminds me of an old trailer trash Barbie. $$$$$ signs is all the woman cares about!
October 14th, 2007 at 1:14 am
i pray that one day howard can move on and find someone to have a nice life with .he deserves to be loved the way he truly loved anna.it would blow my mind to have a man to love me the way that he loved her.this man has a broken heart ,he needs some peace in his life,. to be able to greave his loss.he is in my daily prayers .he has shown so much class ,something VA knows nothing about, his sister does the same, anyone can see that their mother was one of the best!!!!!! HELLO va TAKE NOTICE.
