The TRUTH about what is really happening to Britney Spears - a thread

You may have recently heard about the growing online movement to #FreeBritney. This is not an edgy conspiracy theory. The mounting evidence in this thread will show how a woman has had all of her rights taken away for over 12 years and counting. The truth with set Britney free!

On January 4, 2008, Britney Spears was taken from her home in an ambulance and forced into psychiatric care after locking herself in the bathroom with one of her sons during a custody dispute. This is when w saw the horrific videos of paparazzi chasing the ambulance. #FreeBritney

While a normal 5150 hold would require a person to stay in the hospital for 72 hours, Britney was released the next day, suggesting they didn't think we was suffering from serious mental health issues. #FreeBritney

Then, a month later on January 31st, Britney Spears was again forced into the hospital. However, this seems to be planned ahead of time. They "worked with the LAPD for weeks" and organized a motorcade the length of a football field. It included two helicopters. #FreeBritney

That same day, Britney Spears' father had all the paperwork ready to ask the court to put her under what is called a 'conservatorship.' In court documents, her father claimed she had a "dementia-related illness" which is inconsistent with Britney's ability to tour. #FreeBritney

Under conservatorship, Britney Spears:

- Doesn't control her own money
- Can't hire an attorney
- Can't drive, vote or see friends without permission
- Isn't allowed to have custody of her children
- And has her social media monitored #FreeBritney

A proposed conservatee is required to be given notice 5 days before a hearing, but Britney's dad petitioned the court to NOT give notice to Britney. It was granted, meaning Britney was kept unaware that she was being placed under a conservatorship. #FreeBritney

On February 2nd, Britney's dad attempted to get a Capacity Declaration from her psychiatrist Dr. James Long supporting his claims. After consulting with his attorney, Dr. Long refused to speak with her dad's attorney. #FreeBritney

On February 4th, a high-profile lawyer Britney hired named Adam Streisand went to court claiming the singer did not want her father in control of her finances. The court said Britney couldn't pick her own attorney and ejected him from the courtroom. #FreeBritney

On February 12th, Britney attempted to hire another attorney Jonathan Eardley. He spoke to her on the phone, but claimed someone wrestled the phone from her and he hadn't heard from her since. #FreeBritney

Mr. Eardley attempted to take Britney's case from state court to federal court saying she was denied her civil rights. The U.S. District court said he couldn't represent Britney because they already said she couldn't choose her own lawyer. The case was dismissed. #FreeBritney

Just months after the court deemed Britney incapable of making decisions about her daily life and finances, she would guest star on How I Met Your Mother. #FreeBritney

Britney would then release the #1 smash hit Womanizer in September and begin the Circus era, all of which went to directly profit the conservatorship because Britney isn't allowed to control her own money. #FreeBritney

In November, Britney's documentary "For the Record" is released. Scenes were deleted and later leaked in which Britney claims her life was being too controlled. #FreeBritney

She says people hear what she's saying, but they're not really listening and she's sad. #FreeBritney

She also talks about not being able to freely drive her car. #FreeBritney

Around this time, Britney gave her friend Andrew Gallery a letter that she wanted him to read to her fans. He recently was released from an NDA and read this letter out loud on his Tik Tok. #FreeBritney

This letter is so important and explains much of what has already happened, so we are going to include it in full so you can hear the whole thing. #FreeBritney

Britney claims she was "lied to" and "set up." The conservators threatened to take her kids away if she petitioned for termination. #FreeBritney

"So how long does this go on? As long as the people around her are getting paid and she has no rights, it could go on for a while. But that doesn't make it right at all." #FreeBritney

In early January of 2009, a voicemail leaked in which Britney told attorney Jonathan Eardley that during the process of eliminating the conservatorship, her father threatened to take her kids away. #FreeBritney

This voicemail was likely made using a burner phone Britney received from her former manager's sister. Britney's dad and the sister testified to this under oath. #FreeBritney

In March of 2009, Britney would embark on the multi-million dollar Circus Tour, which begs the question how someone so unfit to make their own decisions can do dangerous stunts like this without a harness. #FreeBritney

Later in 2009, news outlets report Britney Spears' business manager Lou Taylor was the mastermind behind the conservatorship and brainwashed her dad that this was the only way to go. #FreeBritney

This is when Lindsay Lohan's father exposed a similar plot to put his daughter under a conservatorship too, specifically mentioning Lou Taylor and Larry Rudolph. #FreeBritney

2010 is one of the scariest years of this whole situation, because there is very little information about what was going on during this time. All we know is that Britney returned in 2011 for the Femme Fatale Tour, in which fans saw she was being heavily medicated. #FreeBritney

Also in 2011, beauty mogul Elizabeth Arden sued Britney's dad, Lou Taylor and her estate for breach of contract. She claimed "the notion that Britney Spears is mentally or emotionally unfit to testify under oath is a sham." #FreeBritney

In July, the conservators bankrupt her charity organization, the Britney Spears Foundation, and claimed only $17 in assets. Over $50,000 went to Mercy Ministries of Nashville, where Lou Taylor served as honorary chair. #FreeBritney

In 2012, legal experts began questioning the conservatorship when she started judging and mentoring individuals on the X Factor. How can she do that, but not make her own decisions? It doesn't make any sense. #FreeBritney

Britney Spears' former nanny also testified this year that the pop star was being "emotionally manipulated" in the conservatorship. #FreeBritney

Britney's father asked for additional compensation after she started her Las Vegas residency including 1.5% of all the gross revenue in addition to his $16,000/month salary and $2,000/month rent payment. #FreeBritney

In 2015, Britney released "Pretty Girls" with Iggy Azalea. Here she is explaining the lengths they took before allowing Britney to have lunch at her home. #FreeBritney

In 2016, Britney's ex boyfriend David Lucado said he doesn't think she needs a conservatorship.

"If anyone could see her interactions with her kids, they would know there is no need for a conservatorship over Britney's personal life." #FreeBritney

During the Glory era, Britney spoke publicly for the first time about the conservatorship on the Jonathan Ross show. Fans in the audience confirmed this and it was widely reported, but those parts were eventually cut from the program before it aired. #FreeBritney

Britney has also given many hints about wanting more freedom in her Instagram posts. #FreeBritney

In October of 2018, Britney's co-conservator Andrew Wallet asked the court for a raise. He wanted $426,000 per year citing her "increased well being and her capacity to be engaged." #FreeBritney

Wallet called the conservatorship at this time a "hybrid business model" and notes the "conservatee's business activities have greatly accelerated." #FreeBritney

On January 4th, 2019, Britney Spears' new Domination residency is abruptly cancelled. The post said it was because of her father's recent illness, although he is seen going fishing soon after. #FreeBritney

On January 12th, 2019, Britney was seen driving through In-N-Out with her boyfriend Sam Asghari. She would then go missing from the public eye for three months. #FreeBritney

Suspiciously, Andrew Wallet then asks the court to remove him as Britney's co-conservator. He says "substantial detriment, irreparable harm and immediate danger will result to the conservatee and her estate if the relief requested herein is not granted." #FreeBritney

It is reported in April that Britney entered herself *voluntarily* into a mental health facility. Here is how the media covered it at the time. #FreeBritney

However, a person left a frightening voicemail on a popular podcast @Britneysgram claiming Britney has been forced into the mental health facility against her will and was being forced to take drugs. #FreeBritney

That's when the #FreeBritney movement started trending on Twitter and fans began protesting.

Britney's mom began liking comments about #FreeBritney

Britney's team went into full damage control. Sources started telling the press Britney would have died if they didn't put her into the mental health facility. But wait, what happened to them saying she entered voluntarily? #FreeBritney

A "proof of life" video was then posted of Britney Spears INSIDE the mental health facility. #FreeBritney

On Easter, Britney was allowed to leave the mental health facility to spend time with her boyfriend. She looked extremely medicated in the pictures that came out. #FreeBritney

Britney was eventually released and told the judge in May that her father forced her to enter the facility against her will. #FreeBritney

Fans began continued protesting outside the courtroom. #FreeBritney

Just weeks before he was supposed to testify at the next court hearing in September, Britney Spears' psychiatrist Dr. Timothy Benson mysteriously died. #FreeBritney

Before the court hearing, Britney posted this on Instagram. #FreeBritney

Britney's father was also accused of abusing one of Britney's kids. Her two boys now have a 3-year restraining order against the grandfather and she lost 50-50 visitation with Kevin Federline. #FreeBritney

In 2020, Britney Spears' son went on Instagram and said he's trying to help him mom "break free." He also called his grandpa a "big dick" and said he can "go die." #FreeBritney

This is all coming to a head again because Britney Spears' next conservatorship is this Wednesday, July 22nd. Fans are planning another protest outside the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in Los Angeles. Please attend if you can! #FreeBritney
