Britney Implicated in Bank Scam -- Video Evidence

TMZ broke the story today about a South Carolina inmate who accused Britney Spears of forcing him to commit identity theft at gunpoint -- and now we have the video evidence to back it up! Kind of ...


Jonathan Lee Riches claims that the 2006 CNN television special, "How to Rob a Bank," clearly shows Brit Brit in surveillance video with Riches -- as he scammed a bank out of thousands of dollars. While the video is black and white and extremely grainy, Spears can be seen several times throughout ... in living color!

Surely K-Fed's attorneys will use this damning evidence in the custody case against her. TMZ tried to contact Britney's new PR rep -- the guy behind the counter at the Mobil in Malibu -- but he was busy with a customer.

32. Poor jack54 - Don't you wish you were Kevin Federline? Your jealousy is a mile wide. Britney Spears is worth 100 mil. I think she can handle a little private investigation without you standing on top of your doghouse shouting like a ninny.

34. TMZ you are so lame!! What about covering Federline's antics. Other news media are reporting his drinking and partying but not you! Wouldn't his coverage be fair play? It is obivous that TMZ reporters are out to destroy Britney. Your time will come. "What goes around, comes around." Your idiot reporters will not be laughing, the joke will be on them!

35. Um...when love rears it's ugly head - they go back in black and/or turn Bi??? I loved Living Colour. Time's Up was what I was listening to while everyone else did Madonna. Cool band.

Got to say even you've lost me on this one. But that's pretty much been the pattern. Hex anyone?

36. Now http://Zoodoodle.com comes up with Pics that could of come from the Beach in SC. Could it be Myrtle Beach? Anna Nicole had a Myrtle Beach connection. Lets hope Brit is not at that Red Neck paradise...they will not take to the Naked, Dips at night like in LA. She just strips to her undies and jumps in...in SC they will put her in jail or even worst could happen.
http://BritneyBIkinis.com is not doing so good I understand at keeping up with her Water wear these days.

38. So, TMZ - what's the Britters up to tonight? Umbrella shopping? Clipper snipping? Weave wacking? Car bashing? Sleeping (snicker) in nightclubs? Hurling vomit in vehicles? Getting married? Getting annuled? Getting divorced? Flashing her vag? Driving around town with the paps? Reading Lip Sync For Dummies?

41. WAA WAA WAA Cover Kevin Federline.

Don't you whiners know why the paps don't cover Kevin? Let me explain. A photo of Kevin isn't considered to be a Money Shot.

This is a celebrity gossip business - not a private investigation firm. They're in it for the Money Shots of celebrities. Britney can handle her own private affairs, thanx.

42. Losers, please - keep whining about how none of the sites ever cover Kevin Federline. It only makes you look stupid. These online celebrity sites make their money off of advertising. How much money do you think they're gonna make off a photo of Kevin Federline? Right.

I do have a question though. I'll preface it by commenting that I've seen a number of celebrities make a statement about Britney's condition. None good and all calling for her to get help. But I've never seen one celebrity - not one - speak out and say that they think Britney is getting the shaft.

Now that surprised even a cynic like me, because if were merely a paparazzi problem then I would expect other celebrities to circle the wagons But none have, that I'm aware of.

What does that tell you?

43. Have you ever wondered what you all would be doing if there was no Britney? Probably working at a McDonalds would be a kind guess.

45. Yo! TMZ!

Why aren't you running the story about how KEVIN FEDDERLINE has been off in North Carolina, supposedly doing a dumbass tv show, but is actually BOOZING IT UP with a bunch of his "entourage" at a local club!! They closed the joint down! BOOZE, TMZ. The daddy is out BOOZING.

SO where the hell are the kids? Who's taking care of them while daddy parties and drinks?? What's the problem, TMZ? Why aren't you reporting this? Other sites are!

If you harrass Britney , it's only fair you investigate the doings of KEVIN. Of course who ever said TMZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ was fair, huh? Sleazeballs.
