Britney has been under the conservatorship since 2008, in which she has not been able to make major life decisions without her father’s approval, “I’m here to get rid of my dad and charge him with conservatorship abuse.  This conservatorship has allowed my dad to ruin my life.  If this isn’t abuse, I don’t know what is. … I thought they were trying to kill me,” Britney told the court earlier today.
