Parents to Sam: She's Ours Now

Posted Jan 31st 2008 9:20AM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has learned Britney's parents have won round one in the tug of war with Sam Lutfi. We're told the doctors at UCLA are now "fully cooperating" with the parents in the treatment of Britney Spears, however, the war probably is not over until a judge signs an order as to who has control.

By the way, the men in white coats are giving props to LAPD's "SMART Unit" which specializes in mental health cases for coordinating the events that went down last night and early this morning.

UPDATE: Sam Lutfi left the hospital before 4:00 AM. Papa Jamie just left.

5. TMZ stated "giving props to LAPD's "SMART Unit"

My response: Now have the LA police and sheriff dept start cracking down on the stalkarazzi. And, call in immigration to check the status and ID of half these sleezy paps. This stalkarazzi BS has to end. These people are a public safety threat and accident just waiting to happen. They'd run over their own grandma for a scoop, never mind a mother walking her baby!

6. Don't tell Sam that he worried about the money and his position. The family should be responsible for their child.

7. HIPPA rules are very strict. If she didn't sign a Durable/Medical Power of Attorney, Sammy cannot make decisions, I don't care what the train wreck says. The judge will decide.

8. Yep strap her down and make her take drugs, that will make her better?

9. Sam needs to stay away! This is not your job! Let her family help her!

10. I really hope that she gets the help she needs and deserves. I just wished this whole intervention would have been done a LONG time ago before her condition got so out of hand. But, I guess it is better late than never!

11. Geez already! Let this poor girl (child really) just have a little peace and quiet. Leave her alone and let her get the dignified help and diagnoses she obviously needs. Leave her alone!

13. Well, even if she wanted Sam calling the shots, she should have signed the paperwork! I'm sure she thought her word would rule over any official proceeding!
