Johnson's lawyer wouldn't speak with TIME about Conley's allegations (or anything else). But Johnson herself had previously rejected any suggestion that she was involved. Hospital officials, she says, "act like I went into Wal-Mart and switched my baby. I'm not ... a rocket scientist, but I'm not an idiot. Why would I switch my kid? It doesn't make sense." It's also worth mentioning that Melissa Conley and Johnson don't get along and that Melissa nurses a grudge toward her brother's ex. "I'm scared of this woman," Melissa told TIME...

...Next come HAMZAH and HASHEM, the sons of Hussein's current wife, LISA HALABI, known as Queen Noor, who comes from a Lebanese-American family. Lately, Hussein has been grooming Hamzah. The 18-year-old frequently accompanies his father to official functions, and he is being taught how to speak the slang of the Bedouin tribes, an important constituency for the Hashemite dynasty. On Hamzah's 18th birthday, Hussein published a message to his son, reminding him that at that age he had taken on his full duties as King. But Hassan has his own son, RASHID...
