Jenelle Evans: Actually Seeking Custody of Son?!

Teen Mom 2’s Jenelle Evans is heading to court in an effort to straighten out her life (insert joke here), with priority #1 being to gain custody of her son Jace. Just a few days after breaking up with Gary Head and deleting her Twitter account (@PBandJenelly), she’s hoping for a clean slate as she meets with a judge. Jenelle Evans wants a judge to let her off probation completely, then plans to seek custody of her Jace, currently under control of her mother Barbara. “Jenelle is trying to straighten her life out and the first step she’s taking is requesting that a judge let her out of probation,” her attorney Dustin Sullivan said. “Jenelle has actually been doing really well,” Sullivan added. “She is doing everything she is supposed to do and I’ve seen a big improvement in her life.” After breaking up with her boyfriend because of alleged abuse, Sullivan said he encouraged Jenelle to take down her Twitter and she took his advice. Her only goal now is to rebuild that relationship with Jace, Sullivan adds. “Nothing has been filed but Jenelle has expressed interest in getting custody of Jace back,” he said. “She would really like to have Jace back with her.” That would mark a dramatic reversal from what we’ve seen on Teen Mom 2 , in which Jenelle fights and yells a lot but is rarely even seen with the tyke. Sullivan said his oft-troubled 20-year-old client would be heading to court April 24 to make the request and he is hopeful that the judge will agree.

Jenelle Evans Cops to Positive Drug Test at Hearing

Teen Mom 2 wreck Jenelle Evans appeared in a North Carolina courtroom this morning and admitted that she tested positive in a drug test in July. The 21-year-old, who has been in and out of trouble with the law, told a judge that she did indeed fail the drug test, as reported, back on July 15. She has been tested every week since then, however, and hasn’t had another positive test … which is actually a fairly impressive feat for Jenelle. “Jenelle is doing really well,” her lawyer Dustin Sullivan said after today’s hearing . “She completed her parenting class and her anger management class.” She does not have custody of her young son Jace back yet, but when she’s not beating the crap out of other girls , she spends time with the tyke daily. After a wildly successful stint in a California rehab center, Jenelle tested positive for THC (found in marijuana) and she will remain on probation until April. Her trials and tribulations can be seen on MTV starting next Tuesday when the show that made her a star returns. Watch the Teen Mom Season 2 trailer !

Jewish Groups Want Mel Gibson Yanked From Film

Two powerful organizations are far from pleased about recent news that Mel Gibson was cast in a movie about biblical Jewish hero Judah Maccabee. The Anti-Defamation League has demanded that the producers pull Gibson off the flick immediately, sending a statement directed at Warner Bros. Why are they fired up? Probably this incident , among others. “As a hero of the Jewish people and a universal hero in the struggle for religious liberty, Judah Maccabee deserves better,” the group said of Mel. “It would be a travesty to have the story of the Maccabees told by one who has no respect and sensitivity for other people’s religious views.” Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder and Dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, also had some harsh words about Gibson’s role in the upcoming film. The Jewish leader tells TMZ that casting Mel Gibson as a Jewish hero is “like having a white supremacist portray Martin Luther King Jr.” For those unaware, Judah, the brave warrior who drove enemies of Judaism out of Jerusalem, is a central figure in the story of Hannukah. No comment yet from Mel’s camp or WB. [Photo: WENN.com]

Jenelle Evans to Face Assault Charge For Britany Truett Mauling

Teen Mom 2 waste of space Jenelle Evans will appear in a North Carolina court Friday for a trial regarding her assault case. Short story? It’s not looking good. Evans was charged with assault in March after she was involved in a fight over Kieffer Delp. Although calling it a fight doesn’t really do it justice. She absolutely beat up this girl . Britany Truett got punished . “We have the fight case for a simple assault. We are going to trial and no plea offers have been given,” Evans’ attorney, Dustin Sullivan, said. “There would not be a plea offer that we would accept except a dismissal. She is simply going to go in front of a judge and get her options.” ” Jenelle Evans is not facing jail time, because she has not been charged with probation violations and there have been no convictions yet.” Just one month after she wrecked Truett’s face, Evans got 12 months of probation and community service for a drug paraphernalia charge. The MTV star then completed a stint in a Malibu rehab treatment center, which was great, but she has since violated her probation twice. Testing positive for marijuana and opiates will do that. However, Sullivan is confident that the 19-year-old MTV train wreck won’t have any problems in court on Friday . “She is testing clean,” he said. Give it a couple of weeks, though. Be patient.
