Updated with latest: At a hearing today, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Gus T. May placed Beach Boys legend Brian Wilson in a conservatorship. The arrangement is to be overseen by the 81-year-old musician’s longtime publicist Jean Sievers and manager LeeAnn Hard.
“I find from clear and convincing evidence that a conservatorship of the person is necessary,” said May at the hearing.
Wilson has reportedly consented to the conservatorship.
