According to the report, But Anna Nicole's former publicist David Granoff believes that the only thing that Howard is guilty of is not getting help for Anna Nicole sooner. He tells In Touch he thinks Howard "used poor judgment" in not insisting that she talk to a therapist about her depression following Daniel's death.
"After Daniel died, nothing mattered anymore," another friend, David Giancola, director of her last film, Illegal Aliens, says. "Ultimately, she died of a broken heart."

Howard's sister, Bonnie Stern, adds that Howard would never have done anything to hurt Anna Nicole or Daniel. "My brother is shattered. He was like a father to Daniel," she insists. "For anyone to suggest is just wrong and hurtful. He loved Anna Nicole so much."
