LAPD Copters Ensured Britney Wouldn't Flee

X17 has been told by sources close to Britney's family that the helicopters circling above Britney's home last night and into the early morning were part of a pre-hatched, tightly orchestrated effort to make sure Brit didn't flee her home before police could get a warrant to enter her house and have her taken into custody under a 5150 involuntary psychiatric hold.

Apparently the family or law enforcement thought there was a significant risk of Britney leaving her home before emergency workers could get to her. We believe that's exactly what happened Tuesday night -- the "intervention" that was reportedly supposed to take place then was perhaps not an intervention at all, but an effort to get Britney to the hospital under a 5150.

When Britney left her house in a huff with her new paparazzo friend Filipe, she hooked up with "boyfriend" Adnan and the two drove north on the freeway, as we reported yesterday. We believe they may have turned around to go home after Brit's mom Lynne directed Adnan to do so. By the time the couple had returned home, Lynne's plans were ruined and she knew she would have to try again the next day ...

What's your prediction for the next step in the Britney saga? When her 72 hours under the 5150 hold are up, will she go home to Beverly Hills with Sam? Go home to Louisiana with her mother? Or head off into the sunset with Adnan???

Taxpayer dollars at work!!!!

Nice going, LAPD - you starfuckers.

How's about Brit & her family & enablers contribute some $$$ so that the taxpayers don't need to subsidize her antics?

Posted by: just sayin'


This contradicts with Osama was saying. Didn't he claim that Brit's mom didn't want her to go to the hospital and that she was more concerned about getting a manicure? Man, this guy is such a liar. I hope Brit goes back to Louisiana and leaves Sam on the street where he belongs.

Posted by: sillyme


errrrrrrrrr.......i thought they went to have an argument in the toilets after he begged her to get into his car.???

are you sure he didnt take her home because she was screaming at him???

Since when are lynne and adnan buddies?

anyways. let's hope this works. the 72 hours are up before mondays court date - what will happen monday? ok reports that this is NOT going to help...?

Posted by: britaculous


"sillyme":

yea, i read that somehwere too. but then he probably made that up as part of the story in order to bad mouth lynne in public, and keep britney all to himself......

Omama needs to be kicked out of Brit's life. Who needs him? Yomama needs to get another job. Poor Brit Brit needs to get good people around her to support her.

It is obvious Courtney Love called this a while back. She is taking too much adderall. She needs detox/psych help. She needs a extended stay. She has lost her mind.

I cannot believe our f%&cking tax dollars were used for this kind of drama! This is just stupid and Britney needs to get a life and grow up and stop acting like a mental person when in reality, she is just fine!

Posted by: Brooksie


If I were a citizen of LA, I would be writing the mayor lots of letters to complain about how many policemen, helicopters, and other services were used to bring a spoiled pop star to the psych ward.

The city probably spent more on that little trip than her Mercedes cost earlier this week, so I hope the city sends her the bill.

Posted by: Britney's a bitch, bitch.


Kevin, pls bring her kids back. Only them can make her peace. Everyone, leave her alone

Jeez Louise! What the hell were the helicopters gonna do if she tried to leave - launch an air assault?

I mean, the woman isn't THAT hard to locate!

Your tax dollars at work, y'all.

5:19: Do you need to be committed too??? This woman isn't even capable of being responsible for her own welfare! You want two very small children in her care??? YOU need a psychiatrist, lady. You've lost touch with reality too. Either that or you're all of 14 years-old.

The most expensive "Intervention" in the history of mankind. And for what?

They claim Britney went willingly? With how many cop cars, helicopters & who knows how many uniformed personnel lurking in the bushes? This looks more like a well-orchestrated kidnapping.

And they're gonna run around & do all this - create all this havoc - & then smile & say, "Everything is fine"?

If this is their perception of Fine, I'd sure as hell hate to see what one of their clusterfucks looks like.

If Britney doesn't want this, she'll be right back out on the street in no time - doing the same damn thing until she kills herself or someone else.

I think Britney's fans are closer to needing treatment for exhaustion than Britney is. You all scared the hell out of them last night with the suicide stuff, X17. Shame on you.

Lynne Spears should have led the invasion of Iraq. Our soldiers would have been home a long time ago.

Well LAPD justified that they did not want her on the road so that for the airship it do to be done on Tuesday but she left so they did'nt want to lose her. Oh yeah I was pissed I work there, but I now understand. Our city council is drafing a law against the paps in the next 30 days.

LAPD did get 100's of complains.

BOTH Brit AND the paps should fork over money to the LAPD. The LAPD wouldn't need to provide such tight security if the paps didn't cause such a scene and swarm her all the time.

Better yet, once Brit gets better, she should start giving back to the world and donate A LOT of HER OWN money to charity. (And I don't mean donating a signed CD to a lame-ass auction.) The measly $500 she gives per month to charity is PATHETIC!

That's one way to turn her life around - if she'd stop thinking about herself 24/7 and started thinking about helping others.

Posted by: Anonymous


why should Brit fork over cash to the LAPD!! Brit is the most stalked person in Hollywood. In my Opion the COPS are friggen hollywood whores and morons to think that Brit would disappear, so they had to make this dramatic, and get their attention. This whole thing spells STUPID STUPID STUPID. (not even a normal crazy citizen would have gotten these helicopters over her home, but Britney Spears the person that is most findable does. Pleaze!

Posted by: AL


Britney doesn't know where she is herself most of the time. that's why she is always calling the paparazzi for directions and asking them to drive her around.

When the general public is involved in an accident, the city bills them for ambulance services even if they decline to use them. If you knock over a light pole or sign, most cities will charge you to replace it, (if you're caught.) So Britney shouldn't get this presidential treatment for free.

See Lynn did help-Osama just misunderstood her-she said she was going to have a MANIC-Cured.

WELL, KIDS...

...seems to me, regardless of what's ailin' the Sleazyana Swamp Slut, that this is gonna take years and years to work out.

So I'm thinkin' it'll be many years from now, if ever again, that she'll be in a studio letting her banal voice be filtered and synthesized for any more pop music pablum product, let alone jumpin' onto some stage to lip-sync any of it.

TWATTERS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!

I heard on the news the police helicopters flew in the air space over britneys house to keep news copters from flying over and taking video of britney leaving the house. HMMMMMMMMMMM

I thought Lynne was against her being committed. Let's face it, Lynne is not smart enough to come up with this. I believe her lawyers did this with the help of the shrink they hired, hence the reason they stayed on the case.

Why would our gurl Brit flee?!!? Starbucks wasn't open. I suppose maybe if they were to pass by RiteAid or a gas station, but hell ya'll, that would be like going to her Malibu house! Free Brit!!!

CHECK THIS OUT! THOSE OTHER CELEBS SHOULD THANK BRITNEY FOR GIVING THEM A BREAK FROM THE ATTENTION! WHAT IF THIS WASN'T HAPPENING WHEN HEATH DIED, OR THE RECENT BIRTHS AND LABORS, OR THE BREAKUPS, OR EVEN THE SUPERBOWL?

THIS GIRL'S LIFE IS EVERYWHERE.

EVEN BIN LADEN IS PROBABLY TRANSFIXED TO THIS!

If she does need the help, then so be it. But why oh why, the excessive expense to the LA taxpayers? If her psychiatrist confirmed the need for a 5150, then it sounds to me like there was no need for the police. Couldn't they have just put her in a car and driven her to the hospital. If, and only if, she refused to cooperate, then they could have called in the police. I realize her family wanted to avoid a scene like the last time, but this really went over the top. Talk about special treatment. She was obviously exhausted and could have been talked into going for a car ride with Sam or Adnan, under almost any pretense, general roaming, starbucks, rite aid, gas station, etc. She really should be billed for this major expense and someone should request an invesitgation/explanation as to why it was "planned" with the LAPD and THEY agreed to go to such lengths. They could have just pulled her over on the roads at any given time, for any number of reasons. Not like it would have been hard to find her - black mercedes driving crazy with a million other crazy drivers behind it. I would really just like an explanation for the over the top show!

Let the mom do her job...This "Sam" guy is bad news and clearly he is concerned that he could be losing his bread and butter..on that same note I am sure that the paps are also concerned that they may lose some income if Britney gets her head together..I, at this point really do hope that Britney recovers as no one should be this tormented..

Thank you, 7:22, for taking the time to post that. I can see where she falls into every category on that list. And then some. I no longer believe she's just doing this for attention-I think she is very mentally ill now. It was fun bashing her, but I can't in clear conscience do that anymore.
There's nothing to see here folks, keep it moving...

Have Brittney pay for all the law enforcement and cost. She could buy half of LA if she wanted. Make her pay or Lynn

If we, the consumers, would stop buying the magazines and stop paying attetion to the negative things that are gong on, the paps wouldnt have a reason to be up her ass all the time because they wouldnt make no money. It's not our fault Brit is sick, but it is our fault the paps treat her the way they do!

STOP CALLING LUFTI HER MANAGER. HE'S HER SELF PROCLAIMED MANAGER. HE HAS NO QUALIFACATIONS TO BE AN ENTERTAINMENT MANAGER. HE'S KEEPING EVERYONE AWAY FROM HER SO HE CAN HAVE A FREE RIDE. IT'S INSULTING TO PROPER ENTERTAINMENT MANAGERS TO CALL THIS FREELOADER HER "MANAGER." SHE IS ILL. SHE NEEDS HELP. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF FOR TAKING ADVANTAGE OF HER FOR YOUR OWN GAIN. YOUR 15 MINUTES ARE ALMOST UP.

Leave Britney alone. Believe or not, Britney will still rock the year 2008. Britney needs help and support now. I love Britney forever. I saw her profile on millionaire dating site called W e a l t h yR o m a n c e.com last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship she is looking for on that site.

Posted by: Anonymous


I am checking to see if this was PAID FOR by the Spears 'clan'. If not, this is inexcusable for tax-payers to foot the bill.

All they had to do was hang out at a Rite-Aid or gas station convenience store to nab Britney. Those are the only places she can be found.
