Celebrity Justice
Lutfi Drug Probe -- Full Steam Ahead

Posted Feb 20th 2008 7:47PM by TMZ Staff

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the LAPD investigation into Sam Lutfi allegedly drugging Britney Spears is well underway.

We're told the case has now been assigned to Robbery Homicide, primarily because of the sensitive nature of the allegations and the intense media interest in Britney Spears. Sources say investigators have interviewed several witnesses regarding the drugs in Brit's system at the time she was most recently committed.

We're told the investigation had been temporarily derailed because of the death of an LAPD SWAT officer, but it's now back on track.

One source says the investigation will probably be concluded in late March.

77. Sams gonna Get It!!!

Sams gonna Get It!!!

Sams gonna Get It!!!

Sam is a predator of the worst kind! He preys on people who are hurting and vulnerable (and yes his victims were probably abusing substances) makes them believe they need him in their lives then abuses them emotionally and psychologically, in order to gain control over them! Think battered-wife syndrome! She was probably already messed-up , then he comes into the picture and REALLY messes her up! All the while making sure his Paps were "getting all this"

He has embezzeled god knows how much!

Him playing Doctor will be the nail in his coffin

80. wait what...unless you work at ucla or the labs that processed her drug work or are otherwise somehow privy to the results, you couldn't possibly know if she passed the drug tests.

81. Ha ha ha TMZ.

Looks like Jamie pulled one over on ya....they say the story is bogus and I can't imagine where you got it from if not Jamie....ha ha. Shouldn't listen to drunk bankrupts who exploit kids if ya want reliable info. You should have gone to the source, the LAPD, like the other media outlets did.

Ha ha, you've all been fooled.

83. Southern girl,
Sam is not Britney's guardian so he had no business hiding her medications in her food. You're right he's only been around for a short time so who gave him permission to give her drugs. He's not a family member or boyfriend just an Iranian outcast who saw a woman in a vulnerable position & took advantage of her. Her former manager admitted he had e-mails from Sam demanding money from Britney. What a low life piece of crap he is.

This jerk needs to step away & leave the Spears family alone. This is their daughter & Sam will end up on the losing end of this deal. By the way, you're too stupid to be a southern girl.

84. Jan you are a moron. Britney never "flashed" anyone. Pervert paparazzis try to get shots like that of women getting out of cars. Are you saying she's crazy or a bad person because she didn't wear underwear a few times? Kill yourself (you are probably fat)

Are you some kind of uber-conservative idiot? So Britney didn't wear panites a few times BIG DEAL TONS OF WOMEN GO COMMANDO.

85. just like a 16 year old..my FRIENDS MADE ME TAKE DRUGS..GIVE ME A BREAK! NICE SPIN ON THE PARENTS PART..AND THE PARENTS JUMP IN ON A 27 YEAR OLD'S LIFE???? At 27, I would be MORTIFIED..with my parents going PUBLIC with my MEYNTAL CONDITION! I smell fish...I don't get her appeal....you would have to be a 7 year old or some old trannie. to enjoy her music?

86. Sam losing his license? WHAT LICENSE?
He wasn't the one, according to the Enquirer, who put meth in a vial in those NASTY brown boots she wears everywhere, it was her doing. My guess is his defense is, she wasn't taking psych meds, WAS TAKING ILLEGAL DRUGS LIKE METH, and in desperation, put the psych drugs in her food so she would have them in her system.

87. Hey BLAME, Britney and her parents have been silent on this issue. Are you forgetting that it was SAM who ADMITTED he was drugging her? This man dug his own grave, stop trying to paint him as the victim.

No u cant deport him, he has the same equal rights as u do, get a life....the man is nothing but a loser i agree, but that does not give you the right to descriminate him and his rights. Britney has issues before sam came, just because he is from a different race and religion does not give the whore mother of another whore britney, the right to accuse him of anything until proven evidence represented...the guy is innocent until proven guilty, but in your justice racist law, it is SATAN BACKWARDS LAWS...come on..

89. 92. Jan you are a moron. Britney never "flashed" anyone.

wait what...call it what you want, we've all seen it...lol. I think most people agree she was flashing it! LMAO Particularly the other night when she had the long skirt on and still somehow managed to flash herself.

Am I uber conservative, not at all. She can do as she pleases. But public indecency is illegal, and she wants her kids back, so think she could probably stop doing that for now if she was smart...lol.

Anyhow, she didn't do it when Sam was with her...mom & dad are probably encouraging it. The poor girl, being controlled by such greedy monsters.

90. "According to the Enquirer"

LMAO......... moron.
