The Anna Nicole Smith drug conspiracy case, charging her lawyer-boyfriend and two doctors with providing the former Playboy model with excessive amounts of drugs, was placed in the hands of a jury Friday.

Attorney Steve Sadow, the last defense lawyer to speak, said Smith was the love of Howard K. Stern's life and he trusted the two doctors on trial with him to ease her suffering with prescription drugs.
