One Day in Jail. That’ll Show Her.
 |
I’m sure that Lindsay Lohan will really learn her lesson after a day in jail.
Actress Lindsay Lohan must spend one day in jail after pleading guilty to drink driving and drug charges as part of a plea bargain.
She was put on three years’ probation, and must do community service and complete a drug treatment programme.Lohan’s seven charges included driving while over the alcohol limit and being under the influence of cocaine.
The actress crashed her car in Los Angeles in May and was arrested again in July after being stopped by police.
She avoided more serious charges because she was only in possession of a small quantity of drugs both times she was arrested.
With her record, with the incredible profusion of recent idiocy, and with the fact that public morale would be hugely bolstered by her lengthy incarceration, you would have thought that the judge would have hooked us up with Lohan facing a long, long jail sentence in the bad kind of Office Space prison.
If you know what I mean.
Lohan papa Michael fears that his daughter will be harmed by her day serving extra-hard time.
He says, “She is a little girl who has been used by everybody around her because of her celebrity and that’s what’s landed her where she is. Now, she needs a helping hand, not a sentence.
“I’m against it. Jail would probably harm Lindsay more than help her.”
Lohan must now serve a 24-hour jail term, after the judge cut a mandatory four-day jail sentence in half and ordered her to carry out 10 days of community service.
Sure. It’s hard to imagine what might be gained by holding a stubborn, spoiled starlet like Lohan responsible for her own idiotic behavior and serially bad bad decisions. Why would we want to encourage the little princess to imagine that her actions might have real world consequences? Foolishness, I tell you.
Well, we do still have the near-inevitable Lindsay Lohan desperate-for-attention, career-on-the-rocks Playboy spread to look forward to. Frankly, while that wouldn’t do a damned thing to salvage her dignity or her sagging fortunes, I always applaud starlet nudity. I’m shallow that way.
