"Britney Spears: Judge denies request to remove father from conservatorship

A US judge has denied Britney Spears's request to remove her father from his role overseeing her conservatorship.

The pop star's lawyer asked an LA court to end Jamie Spears control of her estate, in November last year.

They said the star was "afraid of her father" and wanted him removed as her sole conservator - a role he has carried out since 2008.

Although the request has been denied, the ruling is not a response to Spears' explosive testimony in court last week.

Speaking for 23 minutes, the star said she had been drugged, forced to perform against her will and prevented from having children."

Awww

It's totally insane how she is treated IN ALL PUBLIC VIEW - she is clearly of sufficiently sound mind, and if that's not sound legally anymore than a LOT of people should be subjected to same cruelty as she is. Total ******* bulltulip.

One could argue they could transfer the control to a trust not a relative.

It does sound like she is still a little unstable but dispassionate professionals would probably do a better job.

And Michael Jackson wasn't? And half the drug addicts in the music and movie industry?

Forcing birth control on her FFS

"In 1927, the US Supreme Court ruled in favor of forcibly sterilizing a feeble-minded woman in a well-known case called Buck v. Bell. It's important to note, was never overturned. In that ruling, the Supreme Court argued that it was perfectly acceptable to force sterilization on a woman because of her low intelligence, her alleged low intelligence, and that it's better for all the world, you know, to prevent the birth of more low-intelligence children "

First i felt really bad for her, but then i read Spears already has two kids, so I dont feel as bad for her anymore, although it is still a horrible thing they are doing to her.
