61. For the record #47, the judge that granted the conservatorship is not the same judge as the one in her custody battle.

62. FINALLY!!!!!! Something that makes sense! I sincerely hope there will be some substantiative evaluation that goes well beneath the surface deep,deep into her inner brain. Now I think the next step should be that the "paps" go home to reunite themselves with thier loved ones. I'll bet some of thier little ones hardly remember who they are. "Little Billy, this is your daddy". Member him?

64. Damn! She is gonna go NUTS without all the paps taking pics. of her! She probably won't know how to function. Obviously there are no windows in her room. She'd be flashing all of them otherwise :)

Now if we could just switch the numbers around to 41 instead of 14..........

65. Well, if he isn't a suspect..... he should be. That manipulative POS should never be allowed anywhere near Britney again.
If anyone thinks I am wrong, they should go to bitten and bound and read the text messages from Sam to media telling them where he and Britney were and where they were headed, talking about the OK Magazine photographer and much more. Shots of the actual text messages, not just transcripts which can be edited.

Yes! Her father needs to fire Trope and Trope, they were up to their eyebrows with Howard Stern when they were supposed to be working for Anna Nicole Smith and the fact they have been conspiring with Sam is reason enough to tell them bye bye... I only hope her parents have seen the afore-mentioned text messages and take them to court tomorrow.

69. Is it legal for tmz to report on someones medical condition? I thought medical records were supposed to be private!

70. Good, I am so glad they were able to get her an extention in the hospital...these things take time. So many times if you don't have money for private pay they will cut you off even if you need to stay longer...they did that to my daughter several times when they were having problems adjusting her meds and that is so frustrating. Doesn't matter if you still need care or not. Greedy insurance and hospitals... no money no care... Let's go back to not for profit insurance and hospitals... things were better then.

71. I hope that whoever is leaking all this information to TMZ has the crap sued out of them.

72. SHE IS Twenty -Six, not 16, she is an adult woman with little education, she is not the brightest crayon in the box. She is the mother of 2 little kids, who will look at pictures one day of her exposing her crotch to the world. What will they think of her then? This is a human tragedy, and 14 days will not cut it, she should be put away for months and months, until the medical authorities can get a grip on her mental illness. If she tries to fool them, she is only fooling herself. She should be moved out of LA and to a rural setting in a sanatorium, for an extended period of time.

73. People should think twice about wanting all out fame--it's not all glamorous, is it? Britney is the most known face and name of this generation and look what it's done for her. Too young, too rich is a bad combination--Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Amy Weinhouse, etc., etc., etc. The state of young America today saddens me--we didn't have these issues when I was a kid--I'm not that old--when and where did things go so wrong? We used to have our occasional terribly sad story like Marilyn Monroe or River Phoenix. But, Brad Renfroe, Heath Ledger, Christopher Bowman, Anna Nicole Smith (and Daniel)--HELLO!! We all see the elephant in the room. I just hope to God we're wrong!!

74. Being in this type of lockdown is no fun even for a 5150. I went through an elevated sugar and high blood pressure situation which will make you feel like you want to jump out the window. I am a law firm manager and pretty stable, so when I called my doctor, she called the EMC. They got my levels adjusted, but I was watched for 72 hours. It was a nightmare. The hooks on the back of door are hinged; if you pull them too hard, they bend (to keep you from hanging yourself). The water in the shower goes off every 5 minutes; it keeps you from drowning yourself. There was no division for me and the utterly psychotics. People were screaming and writhing on the floor until picked up and medicated. One person was throwing himself on the floor to try to break his neck to kill himself; scary. You have no silverware; only plasticware and you either eat in your room or in the diningroom, which can be a free for all; better to stay quiet and not incite someone's anger. When friends came with flower pots, they had to be put in plastic containers so I wouldn't cut myself. This was a very high end hospital, yet you had to share a room and who knows if the person will be standing over you when you wake up in the middle of the night? You are checked on every 20 minutes or so in the night to make sure you are ok., so you don't sleep unless given something. You can read or watch tv with others, but you need to attend group meetings. I'm telling you, if she is going through anything like this and for 14 days, she needs all of our prayers. I hope they can get her medicated and that she will accept this; otherwise she can be in there for a long time. This is no fun thing; this is the end of the road.
