The California Department of Justice (DOJ) is conducting a criminal investigation into the doctors who prescribed medicines to Anna Nicole Smith in the months leading up to her death.

According to TMZ, the DOJ is particularly interested in two doctors�Khristine Eroshevich and Sandeep Kapoor.

Dr. Kapoor prescribed methadone to Anna under an assumed name when she was eight months pregnant, whilst Dr. Eroshevich ordered a virtual pharmacy of drugs for Anna, five days after her son Daniel died.

Kapoor�s attorney, Ellyn Garofalo, tells TMZ, �Dr. Kapoor declined the request for prescriptions. He would never prescribe that combination of drugs, in such large dosages, to any patient.�

An investigation by the Medical Board of California is also pending.
