Bobbi Kristina Brown Taken Off Life Support
Written by: Justice Bahlee follow @justicetalks
Bobbi Kristina Brown, who has been in the hospital since she was found unconscious in her bathtub on Jan. 31, will not be taken off life support this week, according to Bobby Brown's lawyer Christopher Brown.
The lawyer calls reports of such activity "false."
The only child of Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston remains at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta and is in grim condition, according to a family member.
"There hasn't been a change in the past week," the family member said Sunday.
Feb. 11 marked the three-year anniversary of Houston's death, as well as the day many speculated
that Bobbi Kristina, 21, would be taken off life support.
"The 21 year old singer's father wants to make a decision based on facts, not on what the public feels that he needs to do," a relative stated last week.
Brown was in a car crash days before being found unresponsive by boyfriend Nick Gordon and friend Max Lomas.
She lost control while driving her Jeep and collided with another vehicle on Jan. 27, injuring two people.
The Roswell Police Department in Georgia confirmed on Feb. 11 that the case involving Brown's
bathtub incident is a criminal investigation.
"The incident has always been under criminal investigation," the police said in a press release. "Criminal investigations may or may not result in criminal charges being brought against individuals."
As the investigation continues, family members maintain hope, with Bobby Brown and grandmother Cissy Houston holding a constant vigil by Bobbi Kristina's bedside.
"It's so confusing," the family member said of Bobbi Kristina's condition. "[But] everyone is still praying for her. That's what matters."

Confessions: Love Triangle
Bill Cosby's Side of the Story Against Beverly Johnson (Pictures)
CNN has responded with a fiery retort at Bill Cosby's lawyer. CNN representatives were defending a decision NOT to include Beverly Johnson's boyfriend as part of a network special. The Network described him as a criminal with an ax to grind.
Cosby's lawyer, Martin Singer countered on Friday with a pretty nasty as well. He asserted that they were rigging a story to exploit the comedian. Model, Beverly Johnson accused Cosby of drugging her in the 1980s. Singer added that Johnson spoke very highly of Cosby during this time and never mentioned the incident.
Johnson’s live in boyfriend; Mark Burk wasn’t present when the alleged drugging occurred, but she claims she has complained to him about the incident many times. CNN also stated that the relevance of Johnson saying bad things to Burk about Cosby is immaterial.
Burk also has a criminal history, multiple restraining orders keeping him away from Johnson and threats to kill her.
CNN also cites that Burk isn't credible because he filed a bogus lawsuit against Johnson for palimony.
NYC Cop Killer's Motive Revealed (Pictures)
N.C. teen's death ruled a suicide; but his mother believes he was lynched (Pictures)
A 17 year old Bladenboro, North Carolina teen was found hanging in a mobile home park after he left home for a walk. Family members believe Lennon Lacy was the victim of a lynching as a result of an interracial relationship with a 31 year old woman.
The teen's mother, Claudia Lacy says she can accept anything: even that her youngest son committed suicide, if it's proven and explained to her.
According to Lacy, local and state investigators have done neither to support their theory that Lennon Lacy hanged himself one summer night.
"That's all I've ever asked for: what is due, owed rightfully to me and my family -- justice. Prove to me what happened to my child," added Lacy.
She says she's long lost confidence in the Bladenboro Police Department and the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation.
Currently, the FBI is looking into the teen's death and the local and state investigations that followed.
"I look for him and I don't see him. I listen for him and I don't hear him," says the grief stricken
mother.
The last time Lacy was seen or heard of was the night of August 28. Lennon was focused on playing football and was a lineman for the West Bladen High School Knights.
His family says that night, he packed a gym bag, washed his ankle brace and hung it on the
clothesline to dry before leaving the apartment for an evening walk.
The teen was diagnosed with asthma, and was advised by a doctor to exercise outdoors at night when the temperature and humidity dropped. Around 10:30 pm, Lennon left and headed down a dirt road.
Just before 7:30 the next morning, he was found hanging from the frame of a swing set in the center of a mobile home community. According to medical documents, his body was covered in fire ants.
Lennon's mother was called to the scene several hours later, after he'd been placed into a body bag.
"It was unreal. It was like a dream. It was like I was not seeing what I was seeing," Lacy says.
Immediately, Lacy believed her son's death was the result of some foul play.
"He didn't do this to himself," Lacy says.
She believes Lennon was lynched.
"He may have either been strangled somewhere else or been placed there or he was hung there while people were around watching him die," Lennon's older brother, Pierre Lacey says.
However, North Carolina's Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Deborah Radisch declared his death a
suicide.
When a state investigator asked Lacy if her son had been depressed recently, she told them he had -- because a relative had died recently. The state medical examiner cited that exchange in the autopsy report. Lacy says she did not mean that her son had been suffering from depression.
"When you just lose someone close to you, you're going to be depressed, upset, in mourning," Lacy says.
"I was shocked, disappointed. I also, initially told him how I felt - that I did not approve of it," Lacy
says.
In the wake of his death, some wondered whether Lennon had been killed because he was in an
interracial relationship.
A week after Lennon was buried, a local teenager was arrested for defacing his grave.
"There are too many questions and it very well could be a lynching or a staged lynching. We don't
know -- but what we do know is there has to be a serious and full investigation of these matters," says Rev. William Barber, a national board member for the NAACP.
The NAACP hired Florida-based forensic pathologist Christena Roberts to analyze the case and Dr. Radisch's autopsy, completed for the state.
Roberts' first concern: basic physics. Lennon was 5-foot-9. The crossbar of the swing set frame he was found hanging from was 7-foot-6, according to the NAACP review. With no swings or anything at the scene on which he could have climbed, according to the review, it's unclear how Lennon reached the top.
"His size, his stature does not add up to him being capable of constructing all of this alone - in the dark," Lennon's brother says.
According to the 911 recording and the initial police report, a 52-year-old woman got the 207-pound teen down, while she was on the phone with an emergency dispatcher.
"Dr. Radisch also noted that she was not provided with photographs or dimensions of the swing set. Without this information, she would be unable to evaluate the ability to create this scenario," according to the NAACP review.
Lacy says she told investigators that the belts used to fashion the noose did not belong to Lennon.
"I know every piece and every stitch of clothes this child has -- I buy them, I know. Those were not his belts," Lacy says.
The Bladen County Coroner and Medical Examiner Hubert Kinlaw believed the belts might have
been dog leashes.
Radisch thought that "some portion must be missing because there was no secondary cut in either belt. The cut would have been necessary to bring down Lennon's body," according to the review.
Also, the shoes Lennon was wearing when his body was found were not his, according to his family.
Lennon's brother says he left home that night wearing size 12 Air Jordan's. However, he was found wearing size 10.5 Nike Air Force shoes. Those shoes were not with Lennon's body when he arrived at the state medical examiner's office, according to the NAACP review.
"He's going to walk a quarter mile from his house in a pair of shoes that's two sizes too small after he takes off his new pair of shoes - and this is a 17-year-old black kid with a brand new pair of Jordan's on.
He's going to take those Jordan's off and just get rid of them and put on some shoes that's not his -- we don't know where he got them from, no laces in them -- and continue to walk down this dirt road late at night to a swing set in the middle of the trailer park and hang himself," Lacey says.
"How can I believe that?" Lacey added.
There are also questions about who first declared Lennon's death a suicide.
"Dr. Radisch noted that her determination of (manner of death) in this case as suicide was based on the information she was provided by law enforcement and the local medical examiner. She would have likely called the (manner of death) 'pending' while awaiting toxicology and investigation but the (local medical examiner) had already signed the (manner of death) as suicide," according to the
NAACP review.
However, in the summary of the case, written the day Lennon was found, the local medical examiner
asked "did he hang self? Will autopsy tell us?" Kinlaw also left the conclusion on the manner of death "pending."
Local police and state investigators declined to speak with CNN. CNN asked to interview Radisch about the statements attributed to her in the NAACP review. Instead, a department spokesperson confirmed the exchanges through a written statement:
"The comments that were released by the NAACP were a synopsis of a professional exchange between the NAACP's independently-retained forensic pathologist and Dr. Radisch," according to a spokesperson for the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services.
Lennon's family believes there was a rush to judgment. And until someone clearly explains and proves how her son died, Lacy says she'll keep fighting until she gets answers.
"I take it one day at a time. That's all I can say," Lacy says.

GWYNETH PALTROW KISSER
Gets Dumped by Wife ...
KIRSTY HUME FILES FOR DIVORCE
Scottish supermodel Kirsty Hume is kissing her marriage goodbye months after her husband was famously photographed planting one on Gwyneth Paltrow.
Hume just filed for divorce from actor Donovan Jerome Leitch after more than 13 years of marriage -- and wants joint physical and legal custody of their 10-year-old daughter ... according to court docs.
Hume says they've been separated for the last 3 years -- backing up Leitch's story that they were already split when he kissed Gwyneth at a Dodgers game last September.
Paltrow -- who dated Leitch back in the '90s --- was still consciously coupled with Chris Martin at the time.
Hume is NOT asking for spousal support from Leitch ... so this one appears to at least be a civil uncoupling.
