Lindsay Lohan sentenced to 90 days in jail, 90 days in rehab

lindsay-lohan-sentence.jpgA sobbing Lindsay Lohan was sentenced Tuesday (July 6) to 90 days in jail for a probation violation stemming from her 2007 DUI arrest. She failed to attend her mandated alcohol education courses, and didn't submit to required random drug tests, the court ruled.

Lohan will serve 30 days for her first DUI, 30 days for her second DUI and 30 days for a separate reckless driving charge. She will surrender to the court on July 20. Until that date, she must keep her SCRAM bracelet on. She'll get credit for any time already served, but not for community service hours she racked up in previous cases.

Immediately after her 90 days in jail, Lohan must complete 90 days in an inpatient residential rehab facility. Within two days of her release, she must check in with the Santa Monica probation office. As a condition of her probation, Lindsay is ordered not to consume any alcohol.

Judge Marsha Revel decided not to include the results from Lohan's SCRAM bracelet when considering the sentence, so the fact that something set off the bracelet at an MTV Movie Awards after party Lohan attended didn't factor into the decision.

Also disregarded was Lindsay's father, Michael Lohan. He requested a private meeting in the judge's chambers, but Revel suggested that he send a letter to the court instead.

"I just wanted to take a minute to say that as far as I know, I was being in compliance with my program. When I asked to leave town, they would give me permission to leave town. I wasn't expecting any special treatment aside from the understanding that I have to provide for myself, I have to work," Lohan told the judge prior to sentencing. "It's just been such a long haul and I don't want you to think I don't respect you on your terms because I really did think I was doing what I was supposed to do."

"The court doesn't buy that at this time," the judge responded.

As the sentence was carried out, Lohan sobbed to her lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, and cried, "What?" several times. Holley asked Revel to remove Lindsay's SCRAM bracelet until she reports to jail on July 20, but the judge refused. When the lawyer suggested that Lohan would take daily tests, the judge said that alcohol doesn't remain in the blood stream long enough for tests to be accurate, so the bracelet stays on until Lohan goes to jail.

Dr. Drew calling, now is the time for her to go on Celebrity Rehab. I wonder what mama Dina says now.

Is she going to be on celebrity rehab I hope so that would be awesome then we can see the real Lindsey Lohan..

Y E S !!! Even though its only going to be 25 days, still...its about fncking time.

I can't help it, I feel really sad for her.

I really hope she gets the help she so terribly needs.

This might be the best thing for her. She was that Bravo show Double Exposure, doing a modeling shoot, and at one point, she looked VERY strung out. Girl needs help.

FINALLY! Maybe now it will sink in and she sees that actions have consequences, maybe now she'll finally grow up.

Sick of people taking out their hate & bitterness on celebrity kids. The 'real' Lindsay. What does that mean? A paparazzi cheat pic w/out make-up? Sobbing isn't enough for you?

Hey Lindsey we are looking so forward to your visit, our slumber party will be awesome, we can exchange all kinds of stories about our drugs and drunkin. Also if you don't like girls you will learn to baby...see you soon, Jenny/

Why is this girl still a 'celebrity'? Other than being drunk or otherwise in trouble, what has she done in the spotlight? When has she last really had a career? Is there such a shortage of talented young women that the photogs still have to latch onto this talentless one? She needs to disappear off the radar.

She does deserve jail, though.

This is hilarious! Who does she thinks she is? Classic.
