Posted on 21 September 2008 by Loretta

Dr. Fred Mullins, the Medical Director at Joseph Still Burn Center in Georgia held a press conference this morning, September 21st, regarding Travis Barker and DJ AM’s condition.  Mullins said that both Barker and Goldstein are being treated for second and third degree burns, but he expects a full recovery.

Dr. Mullins said,

Since both Barker and Goldstein are in overall good health and didn’t suffer from any other crash-related complications, a full recovery is expected.

Barker was burned on his torso and lower body and DJ AM suffered burns to a portion of his head and his arms.  They both remain in the hospital’s intensive-care unit in critical but stable condition.

Dr. Mullins says that it may take a year to recover, however he expects that it will be sooner than that.  Mullins also read a statement from the families that said,

The families wish to thank fans from all over the world for their prayers and concern.  Deepest sympathy is expressed to the loved ones of those who perished in the crash.  As the two recuperate and mourn this loss, privacy for them their families and friends is requested at this time.

Britney Spears gets robbed and other news updates on the troubled singer

Britney Spears gets robbed and other news updates on the troubled singer

Here is the latest news in the whole Britney drama.

First, On Friday, Jamie Spears, Brit’s dad, was sceduled for a court hearing. The judge gave him temporary conservatorship over Brit until a hearing that would take place sometime today.This means that Jamie will be able to restrict visitors to his daughter, employ security guards to protect her, control Brit’s finances, change the locks on her home and kick out anyone currently living there. In addition, the court also reportedly granted Jamie and Lynne Spears the right to prosecute a restraining order against Spears’s friend Sam Lutfi, who has been embroiled in a struggle with the Spears family for control of the singer for the past week. Thank the Lord.

Second, Britney is under 14 day psych hold. While we think yes, she finally is getting some real help. She apparently is furious and is upset that her father has temporary conservatorship over her life.

Only her psychiatrist would’ve had the authority to request the involuntary stay. However, it’s possible the singer could be out earlier if she legally demands to be released or her doctor deems her well enough for outpatient treatment.

Lastly, apparently Britney’s house got robbed while she’s been in the hospital. The LA police department was called Friday night to Spears’ Beverly Hills home after her parents discovered that some of her possessions were missing.

The source says Spears’ father Jamie and mother Lynne were “shocked” to find that the valuable items “had been stolen” after they returned to the house following yesterday’s emergency hearing where Jamie won legal control over his daughter.

They then called police and filed a report.

Spears’ parents believe that the items were stolen after their daughter was taken to the UCLA Medical Center early Thursday morning.

Officer Alex Martinez says “The report is being processed through our system. We do not have access to it.”
