"Howard K. Stern is the principal enabler," Brown alleged Thursday.

"Somebody died here," he added, referring to Smith's 2007 death of an overdose at the age of 39. "People think those drug dealers on the street corner are the only threat. People in white smocks in pharmacies and with their medical degrees are a growing threat."

Stern, 40, turned himself over to authorities Thursday to face felony charges for allegedly providing Smith with medications not prescribed to her.
