Beach Boys Founder Brian Wilson Placed Under Conservatorship

A Los Angeles judge has approved a conservatorship for Brian Wilson, citing his neurocognitive disorder and recent personal losses.

The conservatorship was initiated after the death of Wilson's wife, Melinda, who previously managed his affairs.
Two of Wilson's longtime associates, a publicist and a manager, have been appointed as his conservators.
Wilson's case reflects a broader scrutiny of conservatorships, highlighted by the #FreeBritney movement.
The musician's mental health has been in decline, prompting the legal intervention to safeguard his well-being.
Recent changes in conservatorship laws aim to protect individuals' rights, spurred by high-profile cases.
