Amanda Bynes is reportedly in police custody again amid ongoing mental health struggles. The Los Angeles Police Department handcuffed the former Nickelodeon star, 37, and took her to get a mental health evaluation on Saturday morning, according to TMZ. A law enforcement source told the outlet that they arrived on the scene after receiving a call about a female individual who was in distress. TMZ has identified the woman as Bynes, but Page Six has not independently confirmed this claim. We have reached out to the LAPD and the actress’ attorney for comment.

Amanda Bynes has been placed on a psychiatric hold after she was found roaming the streets naked and alone ... TMZ has learned. An eyewitness tells us ... Bynes was seen walking near downtown Los Angeles early Sunday morning without any clothes. We're told Bynes waved a car down, telling the driver she was coming down from a psychotic episode. Amanda herself then called 911. Our law enforcement sources say Bynes was taken to a nearby police station, where a mental health team determined she needed to be placed on a 5150 psych hold. Fortunately, our sources say it doesn't...

Last June, my granddaughter Amanda was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Of course, we were devastated. Amanda was a newlywed with her whole life ahead of her. We asked for your prayers and you stepped up to pray for and support my family. Well, our prayers were answered yesterday when Amanda was notified that her latest test results showed her to be cancer-free. Thank you all for your prayers and the love you showed us.

We got the diagnosis today. Hodgkins lymphoma It has 98% recovery rate so it was the best Dx we could have hoped for short of a miracle and the cancer being gone. The literature does caution that the Chemo can cause heart problems later on in life. Please keep praying for my granddaughter and her husband Eric.

We don't have any news on our granddaughter Amanda's condition. That will only come after more tests. Our family wants to express our deepest gratitude to all of you who have joined us in praying for Amanda and ask that you continue and ask others to join us in our prayers for her as well.

Amanda Knox is in America and she's not going back to Italy. However, Rafael Solecitto -- every bit as innocent -- is an Italian citizen, and they're determined to jail Amanda Knox, but they can't, so they'll jail the guy no one cares about, Rafael. The Italian judicial system has a quirk unlike ours. When a trial court pronounces you culpable, you're not actually convicted of the crime -- not yet. The actual conviction only occurs when a court, sitting in review, confirms the conviction. I believe I read that Italy considers this trial finding of culpability less seriously than...

CURRENTLY via FReepmail from LibertyRocks 02/11/2010, late Thursday It was a rough day. We are right now at Children’s Hospital, we came in this afternoon at 2:30 and by 5:00 she was admitted as a patient. We are in our own private room in the oncology ward - not because she is sick, or because they are thinking it’s definitely cancer (still on the table though), it’s because there are so many kids sick with the flu and H1N1 in the other part of the Peds wing. It’s nice because they are very private rooms, and very comfortable and “homey”....
