Former Lawyer Defends Britney After DUI Arrest

Rosengart had also issued a statement at the time as he called working with Spears for three years an 'honor.'

'It has been an honor to serve as Britney's litigator, to work with her to achieve her goals in obtaining the court-ordered suspension of her former conservator, followed by restoring her fundamental rights and civil liberties.

'While continuing to protect her and more recently to extricate her from all outstanding litigation and the byzantine probate court proceedings. As I've always said, the credit goes to Britney,' he said. 

Earlier last week on March 4, Spears was arrested on suspicion of DUI in Ventura County by California Highway Patrol. She was released the following morning. 

Representatives for Spears later released a statement in response to the arrest to the Daily Mail which read: 'This was an unfortunate incident that is completely inexcusable.

'Britney is going to take the right steps and comply with the law and hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life.'

They added, 'Hopefully, she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time.

'Her boys are going to be spending time with her. Her loved ones are going to come up with an overdue needed plan to set her up for success for well being.'

Dispatchers and officers could be heard during a 911 call as they described the incident as it took place in real time.

A dispatcher stated, 'A black sedan, erratic braking, swerving and driving with no tail light.'

One officer then requested, 'Can we send all units down towards this area please?' The vehicle was later identified as a '2026 black BMW convertible.'

The call initially began around 8:13pm and dispatch confirmed an hour later at around 9:13pm that the 'driver is out of the vehicle.'

Police reportedly found Adderall inside her vehicle and the pills are currently being tested to determine if it is pure Adderall or laced with other substances. 

If the substance tests positive for a narcotic, Spears could possibly be looking at jail time.

But if it turns out that narcotics were not involved, then the pop star will not face jail time, Los Angeles-based attorney Tre Lovell told the Daily Mail.

It is also not yet known or confirmed that the singer had been under the influence at the time of the incident. 

Family sources recently told TMZ that the singer has been in contact with her sons since being released from custody.

Separate sources told TMZ that Spears has since been keeping a low-profile and staying inside her Los Angeles mansion following her release from custody.

Those close to the music artist are also encouraging her to undergo treatment while her manager Cade Hudson told the outlet that the singer will comply with the law moving forward.

It was also recently after authorities declined to release the image to the public, per TMZ. 

The Ventura County Sheriff's Office determined that the booking photo does not meet specific requirements for public release and is also considered discretionary.

The department follows a policy where it releases booking photos related to violent crimes or if an individual poses an immediate threat to the public.
