10. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS ASSH**E Larry Birkhead? He and Stern and Co. are hell bent on distroying this woman who so strongly advocated for him (LB) and made him out to be victim in this saga. I hope the State Bar spits in his face! He expects to get everthing free including Opri's services. What about the contract he signed? What about ARBITRATION which was part of the contract? He is just a whiny piece of no good ungrateful ...

13. So LB files a complaint AGAINST Opri, but thinks it is perfectly OK to let HKS practice law???? Why is it ok that all the drugs in ANS's system including the chloral hydrate that killed her were in HKS's name? why doesn't LB file a complaINT ABOUT THAT?

14. Larry is a moron. He should have hired an agent of his own rather than allow
Opri to use her own agent to set up the deal with NBC. Larry just paid for a very
expensive in lesson in show business. That money is long gone.
