This is only on here so I can prevent this becoming an inactive blog. I’ll try get something else out later on this week.
From BBC NEWS (LINK):
US actress and model Lindsay Lohan has been sentenced to 90 days in prison for violating her probation in a 2007 drug case.
A judge in California said Lohan, aged 24, had failed to attend court-ordered alcohol education classes.
The judge ordered Lohan to surrender on 20 July to begin serving the jail term.
The actress had been on probation since August 2007 after pleading guilty to misdemeanour drug charges and no contest to three driving charges.
Judge Marsha Revel said Lohan would also be required to enter an in-patient rehabilitation programme after her release from prison.
Lohan, who starred in Mean Girls, burst into tears after hearing the verdict.
Good.
What I didn’t understand though was her defense on the case that she tried at all times to get to these probation meetings. For example, she really wanted to be at one, but was stuck in Cannes because someone stole her passport. No, you ass-hat, you couldn’t be bothered to go because you thought you were above the law and above us average joes who don’t have their head in the clouds or our noses in a line of coke every 5 minutes. I’m gonna say what I said in the Paris Hilton prison case – why is this sentence so lenient and when she gets released, will it be full on sentence, or will I be posting again next week about celebrities getting out stupid quickly? Money is obviously part of it, but the law should be strict and equal on everyone, not just those that can’t pay their way out of it.
