Celebrity Justice
Britney's Mouthpiece Muzzled

Laura Wasser Britney SpearsTMZ was in court a few minutes ago, while Britney and K-Fed's lawyers were duking it out over custody.

The judge asked if County Counsel was present. You'll recall, County Counsel represents the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services, which had been investigating if Britney was guilty of bad dental hygiene for her kids. We were told that investigation was all but closed.

Today, Wasser pretty much made it clear -- DCFS has closed the investigation. Responding to the judge's question about County Counsel, Wasser said, "They're not coming. This is much adieu about ..." Before she could say "nothing," K-Fed's lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, jumped up and asked the judge to clear the courtroom of media. We left, but the cat's out of the bag.

46. NO IM NOT BEING A SMARTASS WHEN I SAY IT SEEMS YOU ARE A WONDERFUL PARENT

47. Candace, people that give their 2yr olds junk like pop and chips in ANY amount make me absolutely SICK! Defend Brit all you want, it doesn't make her a good mother nor does it justify you destroying your child's health either. (And just in case you didn't notice the name, YES I HAVE KIDS).

I'm not saying she'd be better with the idiot father (seldom are they), but someone needs to take them away from HER. Damn right if it was anyone else they would have already taken the kids away. Haven't we seen enough video proof to this effect? Come on people! All the crap she's pulled and you still think she's a good mother?? I wish to hell someone would do something, because those kids are just NOT safe.

48. Finally !! Even on this site, the last I would expect, the auto-eroticism of Britney haters is turning into the realization for at least some that the real sleaze ball is Fed-Ex himself, the ultimate dirt bag. Like any young woman her age, Brit is trying to be a good mom to the babies she has always wanted. They just don't come with instruction manuals, any more than life does, especially with parents like hers.

You think "gimme more" is about the paparazzii? It is, but it's mostly about Fed-Ex and their relationship. You think the hat she chose to wear to the LAX opening in Vegas Friday was an unthinking impulse? It's called a FEDora. Pick up on the clues and decoys she drops. This girl is a lot smarter than most people realize.

49. YOU KNOW WHAT IF BRITNEY AND I GIVING OUR KIDS A FEW CHIPS AND SODA MAKE YOU SICK THEN YOU OBVIOUSLY NEED SOME PROFESSIONAL HELP. WHAT DO YOU GO AROUND SPENDING YOUR TIME WORRIED ABOUT WHAT OTHER PARENTS ARE DOING INSTEAD OF YOURSELF. LADY UNLESS YOU ARE A DOCTOR SHUT THE HELL UP AND GET A LIFE.

50. I understand that smoking isn't good for people, but hellI grew up with parents smoking around me and I didn't die. People complain if she drinks at home, but if she goes out they complain. SHe's not drinking and driving (which is a good thing) and how many Dads on Football Saturday and Sunday will drink in front of their kids this weekend alone? How many dads take their kids to ball games and drink? How many parents go to local sporting events with a beer? I'm a parent of 4, and I don't do everything perfect. I sometimes wonder if the constant scruitiny makes things worse because she doesn't have the room to breathe that most moms have. People need to lay off, if the kids are with Kevin, why can't she go out. If they are home with a sitter, so what. How many moms put their kids in daycare daily for 10 hours+...People are complaining because she goes out at night, isn't that when they should be sleeping and they wouldn't miss her, then she could be home when they are awake....DUH!!! Always remember Judge Slowly

51. Give it Up,

You might want to remember the role model Britney had growing up, a mom who pimped her out on TV and broadway (while she lived in Louisiana) to support the family. If Britney is spending 1 hour a day, remember that's probably 10 times what her mom spent with her unless they were shopping, at which point her mom would stay for hours. This girl has grown up in a bubble of sorts, she has only known "nannies" and caretakers, which is really said. What she needs is an older friend with kids who can take her under their wing and teach her how to parent.
As to teh cheetos and coke, I can tell you that my 2 year old has had a few in her day. We have traveled a lot and sometines their just isn't much at a service station. SHe has also had the bag (because she cried and wanted to be a big girl) but the bag usually only had 2-3 cheetos in it. Remember judge slowly, because one day you might be the one judged.

52. OH WENDY THANK YOU FOR SAYING WHAT YOU DID. IT HELPS TO GET MY POINT ACROSS!!

53. if K-Fed was REALLY worried about the kids, why not full custody? having them an additional 20% of the time isn't offering them substantially more "protection." but moving from a 50/50 split to a 70/30 means he can argue for (and be granted) double the child support. that +20% time = 100% more money in California, and he's willing to slander and defame (and charge his lawyer's legal fees) to their mother to get it. boys love their moms. always. period. daddy better hope they never learn to read.

54. First off do any of you people have kid's? I'm sure if the papps were to report everyday people and their kids they would find alot of people who are not perfect. People expect to much from these stars they are only human..... Besides K-Fed has 2 more kids he abandon them for Britney in the first place to me that speaks volumes..Why didn't he marry the first baby mama? Oh I forgot she hasn't any money!
