![Bobbi Kristina Hospitalized -- Whitney Houston's Daughter Rushed to the Hospital [UPDATE]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/13/0213-whitney-hero-2-248x127.jpg)
Britney Spears has been released from the psychiatric ward at UCLA Medical Center, the L.A. Times is reporting.
According to the paper, Spears slipped quietly out -- compared to the massive fanfare that went on the night she went in.
A law enforcement source tells TMZ the hospital let her go "because she was no longer required to stay there after 11:30 AM." We have not confirmed this independently, however, if the hospital decides Britney is no longer a danger to herself or others, the hospital loses its basis to hold her against her will.

Why are they releasing Britney now? She needs to be kept in there. She's a very sick woman.

I thought she was there on a 14 day hold now??? How the hell did she get out of that??? Clearly someone is working AGAINST her best interest--probably at her behest. Too bad.

Read that she was released to another one of her homes. They said that she will be going for more help to another place later. This is just another stop off before that. Let us just hope that is the case.

oh how sad. I hope she will be ok- really pulling for her. Right now she has so many people pulling AT her. I hope she keeps her mom and dad close. She needs her family, and I hope they all make it

I doubt they released her on her own.....again...they have professionals involved....I am praying the family wisked her away to an "undesclosed" place. I have to give them credit....they did it without TMZ or any pap's knowledge......I am keeping the faith and hope alive....
I hope Sam does try to get in contact with her so he can get arrested. Plenty of time has passed for Law Enforcement to get what they need...this is not over

How seriously STUPID is this decision! When she ends up dead everyone who was around her in the hospital will say "I told you she should have stayed".

I hate to say this but I think she will wind up dead. She refuses to get the long term help and treatment she so desperatly needs! Britney will purposely end her life with an overdose. Poor little Sean and Jayden. They are the real victims in this tragedy.
