Britney Spears Will Lose Custody Of Children Due To Safety Concerns
Man, Britney can't catch a break. I am actually feeling pretty sad about her right now. Her lawyer dumped her, her manager dumped her, her bodyguard turned on her, K-Fed does NOT have a hit out on him and now she will lose custody of her children (for the time-being.)
Fox News states today's custody hearing between Britney and ex-husband Kevin Federline revealed some "safety concerns" in the Spears household by way of her former body-guard Tony Barretto's testimony. Barretto worked for Spears after her rehab stint and was fired on May 17th for 'not picking up her hat when asked.'  From the article:
The bodyguard's attorney, the high-profile Los Angeles lawyer Gloria Allred, said in a press conference Monday that Spears' attorney chose not to cross-examine the bodyguard, who has been described as a "secret witness" against Spears in her custody battle with Federline.
The bodyguard, Tony Barretto, filed a declaration in the custody battle which alleges "nudity, drug use and safety issues post-rehab."Allred said Barretto was prepared to testify under oath Monday, but neither the court nor Spears' attorneys chose to cross-examine him. She said his declaration went "unrefuted and unchallenged."
So we don't know what the final outcome will be, or what the specifics are that lead the court to grant the K-Fed temporary custody of the children, but it must have been pretty bad. California courts just don't do that unless there are EXTREME issues involved. I can't even imagine what they are, but after seeing the VMA's I have a pretty good guess.
