Comments on: Unwilling Jamie Lynn Spears airport decoy asks LAXPD for $2 million http://www.celebitchy.com/29720/unwilling_jamie_lynn_spears_airport_decoy_asks_lapd_for_2_million_settlement/ Stylish celebrity escapism Wed, 15 Feb 2012 00:21:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: andrew http://www.celebitchy.com/29720/unwilling_jamie_lynn_spears_airport_decoy_asks_lapd_for_2_million_settlement/#comment-182031 andrew Sun, 11 Jan 2009 00:57:07 +0000 http://www.celebitchy.com/?p=29720#comment-182031 She deserves about $20,000 And the cops deserve to be suspended without pay for a month or so. However, police contracts and police unions are such that police misconduct apart from actually beating someone to death, the actual officers never get any backlash. The ONLY way to make the police think twice about this kind of thing is to make the department pay through the nose, so the department cranks on the heat for their officers to actually follow laws and procedures not just do what they want all drunk on power. THAT is why I as a Juror I'd give her $2 million...it's too bad that such awards end up coming out of the pocket of taxpayers, and it means that the department may not get all the new gear it needs, damaging the 95% of police who do try and do a good job.

I think she knew exactly what was going on the whole time. Besides - she could have said no. Don’t tell me that she wasn’t loving getting that “celebrity treatment” while it was happening.

The only thing is, the LAX-PD can argue she was informed about the situation, her case is than weaken especially if she was someway compensated.

I am not a fan of the Spears bunch but, there was any physical evidence that she was hurt during the events? Or how many jokes you can get from being used as a Jamie Lynn decoy? I can´t think of any really! She had her 5 minutes of fame and now she is sueing? Now that is a joke!!! Either if she was unaware of the task she was about to perform or not, I agree she is entitled to some form of compensation, but 2 million is waaaaay beyond the compensation line! Maybe a grand or so for her services, NOT from the LAX-PD but from Jamie Lynn´s part !!!! I reckon that would be decent enough! How humiliating or physically harmful this could have been?

I don't blame her for sueing. No one should control another person like that and if it's the Police you hardly have a choice but to comply. She deserves something but not 2 Mill.

If 20 paps and police suddenly surrounded me upon deplaning, I wouldn't be quietly walking with my head down. if she is completely clueless as to what is going on – why does she appear totally in the know? why is she not freaking out, looking around, going “what is happening?!!!” If 20 paps and police suddenly surrounded me upon deplaning, I wouldn’t be quietly walking with my head down.

To not ask her permission or explain what it was they wanted her to do?? If that were me, I'd sue that crap out of them.
