Anna Nicole Smith's son Daniel stole some of her Methadone months before his death, Larry Birkhead testified at an inquest into the boy's death in the Bahamas today.

Birkhead said he reviewed surveillance tapes after some of Anna Nicole's Methadone went missing in April 2006. Footage showed Daniel and his friends stealing it, he testified, according to TMZ.com.

Birkhead claimed he noticed a drastic change in Daniel's personality between January and May 2006. On one occasion, Birkhead testified, Daniel threw a television set through a window.

He also claimed that Daniel was hospitalized for taking too much Valium in July 2006.

Daniel died at the age of 20 in September 2006 from an accidental overdose of Methadone and the anti-depressants Zoloft and Lexapro.

Anna Nicole died of an accidental overdose about five months later.
