Britney investigated over child abuse?

By , August 28, 2007

I just found a shocking new about Britney Spears. Here the story:

Britney Spears is being investigated for “child abuse” as part of the ugly custody battle with her ex-husband, it has been claimed.

The allegations were reportedly raised at a recent hearing with Spears’ lawyer, the attorney for her ex Kevin Federline and a lawyer from Los Angeles County Counsel.

The claims have emerged as Spears battles with Federline for custody of 23-month-old Sean and Jayden James, 11 months.

A hearing has been arranged for September 4 to decide who will have custody of the boys.

The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services has targeted the troubled mother-of-two, whose parenting skills have been put into question following a number of incidents and reports from her staff.

In April last year, child welfare officials visited the pop star at her Malibu mansion after she was spotted driving with son Sean, then just four months, sitting on her lap. However, she was not charged with any offence.

This all about celebrities. They just married, divorce and involve in claim about their children. Most affected was their children. I feel sorry for their children.

O.J. Simpson a murder ?

By , August 16, 2007

oj simpsonNEW YORK (AFP) – A small New York firm is to publish “If I Did It,” former American football star O.J. Simpson’s account of the 1994 murders of his ex-wife and one of her friends, the company said Wednesday.

Beaufort Books was aiming for an October 3 release of the book, in which Simpson describes how he would have killed Nicole Brown Simpson and friend Ronald Goldman.

Plans by Simpson to release the book last year sparked a wave of outrage across the United States, prompting publisher HarperCollins to scrap the title and Fox News to cancel an accompanying television interview.

Simpson, 60, who always has vehemently denied involvement in the killings, was acquitted of killing ex-wife and Goldman after a racially charged trial in 1995. The verdict sparked outrage in much of America.

He was later found liable for the deaths in a 1997 civil suit and ordered to pay 33.5 million dollars in damages to Goldman’s family.

The case took a further twist when a US judge in March ruled that any income from the book should go to the Goldman family to cover the damages award made in the civil case but never paid by Simpson.

Another judge later awarded the rights of the book to the Goldman family.

A spokesman for literary agent Sharlene Martin, who handled the deal, earlier said that the book was to be repackaged by the new publisher.

The publisher “pledged to leave Simpson’s manuscript entirely intact, but they will also add key commentary,” spokesman Michael Wright said in a statement, without elaborating on the commentary.

Lindsay Lohan Sue over pre-dawn Car Chase

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – A Los Angeles woman who was driving a car that Lindsay Lohan is accused of chasing through city streets in July sued the troubled actress on Tuesday, claiming her behavior could have caused injury or death.Tracie Rice is seeking unspecified damages for assault and infliction of emotional distress by the 21-year-old actress, who was arrested and accused of criminal drunken driving and drug possession after the predawn chase.”What Miss Lohan did that night was extremely dangerous and reprehensible. Someone could easily have been killed or seriously hurt because of her irresponsible decisions,” Rice said in a statement released by her Los Angeles attorneys.

Lohan was arrested in the early morning hours of July 24 by police in Santa Monica, California, a beach community in Los Angeles County. It was the second time the actress had been charged with drunken driving in recent weeks.

The lawsuit said Rice was a passenger in a car driven by Michelle Peck, the mother of Lohan’s personal assistant who quit working for the actress only hours earlier.

The suit describes a high-speed car chase during which Rice and Peck believed they could be carjacked or shot at.

“Plaintiff was convinced that their lives were in danger and that they had to outrun the pursuing car or they might be killed,” the suit said.

Peck led the car Lohan allegedly was driving directly to the Santa Monica police station, where officers questioned all involved and arrested Lohan.

The actress was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, cocaine possession, bringing a controlled substance into custody and driving on a suspended license.

At the time, Lohan was wearing an alcohol monitoring bracelet following a recent stint in a rehabilitation clinic, and her lawyer issued a statement saying the actress suffered a relapse and was receiving medical care.

Lohan’s spokeswoman was not immediately available for comment on the lawsuit on Tuesday.

Lohan, whose recent movies “Georgia Rule” and “I Know Who Killed Me,” bombed at box offices, crashed her car in May and was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving. She entered a 45-day rehabilitation program and was released in mid-July, only days before the car chase.

She shot to stardom as a child actress in Disney movies such as “The Parent Trap” and “Freaky Friday.”
