Jury: Anna Nicole's Son Death An Accident

A Bahamas jury has determined that Anna Nicole Smith's son died from an accidental drug overdose and is recommending no criminal charges.

The seven-member jury deliberated less than two hours before returning the verdict Monday.

An inquest began in November to determine what killed 20-year-old Daniel Smith.
