In a court affidavit filed after Britney Spears was hospitalized for psychiatric problems, her mother painted Sam Lutfi as a cruel Svengali who kept Spears a prisoner in her own home, lacing her food with drugs, letting paparazzi have the run of her property and torturing her with lies about her children.
A little more than a year after a court gave Spears' father control over her personal and business affairs, Lutfi fired back. In a lawsuit filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Lutfi accused the singer's mother, Lynne, of libel and defamation; her father, Jamie, of battery; both parents of intentional infliction of emotional distress; and Spears herself of breaching a contract.
The specific grounds outlined in the 15-page suit, however, seemed beside Lutfi's main point -- that Spears' parents are the real bad guys.
The suit also contends that Spears' parents did not seek help for her earlier because they saw humiliating tabloid reports about her erratic behavior "as a means by which they could force their way back into Britney's life and regain control of her fortune under the guise of concern for Britney's well-being."

Ah, here we go -- Spears' dad will soon be removed as conservator.
ReplyDeleteThe stage is being set.
Yes, very soon. Always put the blame on family giving the judge a reason to remove the current guardian. Wait til this case gets rolling, bye-bye daddy Spears and here comes the guardian who will be a slave owner.
ReplyDeleteHer dad is in no way better than Lutfi. It was he who had filed for conservatoship earlier, in February 2008. Britney doesn't need any conservator at all, she is a young and unhappy woman who had been betrayed by her parents and her husband.
