Osama Gets Served
Thursday, February 21st, 2008
Osama Lutfi finally came out of hiding today, exactly one day after the restraining order that Jaime Spears had issued against him expired. I’m not sure where Sam has been hiding himself but from the sound of it, he knew exactly when he could step out in public. Sam was served outside his West L.A. home today in the early afternoon. Despite the restraining order being expired, he can be considered served until updated papers can be issued. Or so I’m told. Any lawyers out there care to comment? But yes, we can all breathe a sigh of relief knowing if Sneaky Sam attempts to come near Britney, he can be arrested.
Sam Being Investigated
Friday, February 15th, 2008
This is interesting news. TMZ.com is reporting tonight that Sam Lutfi is being investigated by the LAPD. There is an active investigation being conducted by the Major Crimes Division on whether or not Sam drugged Britney Spears. Claims made by Jamie and Lynne Spears that Sam used drugs to control their daughter were not made in vain, I guess. The LAPD was listening after all. Also, the restraining order filed by the Spears against Sam has not been served. Sam’s been very good about dodging being served, I guess, or the folks serving it totally suck at their job. Anyway, there will definitely be more updates on these stories in the next week or so, so stay tuned.
Sam’s Not Giving Up
Wednesday, February 6th, 2008
There’s one thing you can say about Sam Lutfi - he doesn’t give up very easily. Still under restriction from being within 250 yards of his “ex-client” Britney Spears, Sam fired back today by hiring a media consultant. And not just any other media consultant, but Michael Sands, who also worked with K-Fed’s lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan. Geez, are there not any other media consultants for Sam to hire? And why does he need a media consultant? Sam has had trouble with the law in the past, including the now known story involving his old friend Danny Haines. Danny also had a restraining order against Sam just last April, but he’s not the only one who’s had problems with Brit’s old shadow. In October 2004 an old neighbor, Mark David Snoland, also petitioned a restraining order against Sam for physically threatening him and his mother at their condominium complex. And a businesswoman, Jumana Issa, also filed a complaint in October 2005 against Sam. She accused him of antagonizing her with obscene emails, faxes and late night phone calls. I’m sure Sam has his side to tell regarding Britney and possibly these other negative accounts. I suppose that’s why he hired a media consultant. Still, wouldn’t it be in his best interest to just obey the law and leave Britney alone? Then again, if you were once Brit’s roommate in that plush mansion, I guess you’d do all you can to stay in the house. Sam’s definitely not going down without a fight, unfortunately.
The Battle Continues
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008
I have never seen an actual restraining order but have always assumed it’s a piece of paper (colored yellow, don’t ask me why) signed by a judge. When I heard about the eleven page restraining order Brit’s parents filed against Sam Lutfi, I was a bit shocked. Eleven pages? Really? Well, it is a very detailed one. Sam has to stay 250 yards away from Britney, her homes, her children’s homes, the hospital she’s in, etc. The restraining order also details the complaints Jamie and Lynne Spears have regarding Sam. It stated that Sam moved into Brit’s home last October, cut off her home phone lines, and has tried to control her finances and career. It also states that he drugged Britney. It basically paints Sam as an abusive and destructive leech, but in better written sentences. The hearing regarding the restraining order is set for February 22. I guess that’s when Sam gets his day in court. With all this drama going on in the “outside” world, Brit should definitely just stay where she is.
Update: Poor, Poor Sam…Gets Restraining Order!
Friday, February 1st, 2008
Update: So much for reports that Sam’s the only one who can see Britney in the hospital. Sources have confirmed that Brit’s parents now have a restraining order in effect for 22 days against Sam Lutfi. That’s right - Sam cannot go near Britney. He can’t visit her in the hospital, nor can he go to her house (where he’s been staying). I wonder how he’s handling this news. I’m sure he’ll be talking to all the media outlets today to complain about this. Britney’s dad and a lawyer were awarded temporary conservatorship over Brit’s estate today. They’re due back in court February 4 for another hearing. More updates to follow.
There’s been reports floating around that Sam Lutfi is the only one that’s been allowed to see Britney. He’s been photographed taking food in to the hospital and he’s also been telling anyone who will listen that Britney does not want to see her own parents. But we’ve also learned that this is all a very clever lie. Sam has NOT been allowed to see Britney NOR has Britney denied her parents. The hospital is under strict orders from Britney’s brother Bryan to not allow Sam access to Britney. For some reason, Sam is more concerned with public perception rather than reality. I believe it was Shakespeare who said, “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.”
