DEBRA OPRI HAS ISSUED THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IN RESPONSE TO MEDIA STORIES CONCERNING A CLOSED COURT HEARING ON MAY 21, 2007 :

"Starting with a false story on the internet immediately after yesterday's hearing, numerous stories have been circulating concerning what transpired in court. David Hasselhoff and his attorney have been circulating these reports. These reports do not accurately represent what happened in the courtroom. I have asked the court to order a retraction by Mr. Hasselhoff and his attorney, and to issue sanctions for violating specific court orders. This is currently under consideration. The public should be aware that Mr. Hasselhoff and his attorney continue to intentionally leak false statements to the press and then to point their fingers in the direction of my client. Their actions are inappropriate and the content of their information to the media reads like a badly written television show.  While Mr. Hasselhoff's video - which interestingly was leaked around the release date of his book and television show - speaks a thousand words of what the truth really is. He has since provided to the world nothing but jokes, excuses and ‘partying' innuendos which would make M.A.D.D. (Mothers Against Drunk Drivers) take up arms in their fight against the improper use of alcohol while Mr. Hasselhoff continues to relentlessly assassinate the character of my client, Pamela Bach Hassselhoff, with ongoing false allegations of drug usage. Her truth is clear: She is a loving mother who is trying to restore some normalcy into her daughters' lives since the divorce and despite continuing issues of alcohol of an ex-husband who she wants to see beat this ugly disease. Her efforts will not be in vain."
