'12
I didn’t realize that California law is so… slow. When I wrote my earlier post about Lindsay Lohan’s arraignment (which went down just a few hours ago), I thought that more things would be settled today. Not so much. According to TMZ, the judge formally revoked Lindsay’s probation… but there is still going to be a hearing to decide what will happen now. As in, there’s going to be a separate hearing to decide what punishment the Cracken should get for being in violation of her probation:
Lindsay Lohan’s probation was revoked this morning in court … just like we told you it would be … and the judge has now set a hearing to decide whether to lock Lindsay up for the better part of a year.
Lindsay — who wasn’t present — was arraigned this AM on charges that she lied to cops and drove recklessly when she crashed her Porsche on Pacific Coast Highway last June.
TMZ broke the story … Lindsay’s probation in the jewelry heist case would be revoked as a result of the new charges. The judge who arraigned her — Commissioner Jane Godfrey — scheduled a hearing for January 15th on the probation violation.
If Godfrey decides Lindsay did violate her probation, Lindsay could face 245 days in the pokey.
But as we reported … the Commish is not a big fan of jail, so Lindsay may skate yet again.
I can’t believe that LL didn’t even show up for her arraignment. She must have been like, “Blah, making court appearances is so 2011.” The next hearing is scheduled for January 15 – that will be when Lindsay gets sentenced to whatever for being in violation of her probation. Here’s my question – and yes, all of Lindsay’s court appearances have melded together, so I may be wrong – but I need to ask: I thought Lindsay’s probation violation automatically meant jail? Isn’t that what Judge Sautner (or whoever) said when Lindsay went on this probation thing? That if she violated, it would be mandatory jail? Just another example of A) California’s justice system being all #YOLO and B) The Cracken’s crazy lucky streak when it comes to facing the consequences of her crack shenanigans.

One of the few times I am glad I am not currently living in CA. However, I still got NYC starting in March. Please Santa, keep the Cracken off the streets while we are there.
Or, please bring her backstage at the Cirque premiere so I can take pictures and LAUGH…or get high from being within a 50ft radius. Note to self:check attendance sheet before attending so I know NOT to wear my jewelry that night if the Crackmeister is there.

Of COURSE she didn’t get sent to jail right away. This is ridiculous. The US justice system is BULLSH-T for celebrities and people with money. I bet she will do TOPS 13 days in jail, during which she will buy books online to look like she’s bettering herself, and probably another stint in rehab where she will end up falling in love with someone, again. Then when she gets out she will stalk that guy from the wanted, then repeat.

I think she will get jail. I know they’re reporting that the Commissioner overseeing her case isn’t big on jail, but she’s a commissioner for the homelessness court, where the sole purpose is to help those arrested by getting them into rehab, services they need, rather than sending them to jail (it’s a much more sympathetic system). I think this Commissioner is going to let it be known that LL deserves not one bit of sympathy b/c there is no excuse for her actions (she wasn’t stealing to feed her children or trespassing to find a warm place to sleep). I have hope this time around LL is going to get everything she deserves.

Definitely don’t hold your breath. I think the “commish being soft on jail” is just letting us know that she’s already been allegedly paid off, and that Lindsay will walk yet again. At this point, I really wish I had been born into a rich, crazy family, instead of just a non-rich, weird one. I hope she gets the maximum time in jail, but I’m not holding my breath either.

You’d be surprised at how much/little money this so called wealthy family has.
The IRS is on their behinds big time. They are all terrified of having their financial records scrutinized.
Her lawyer fees alone are going through the roof. Where there is no money there is no celebrity justice.

I hope you are right. I am thinking this: while the judge has been easy on people in the past and sends them to rehab…these crimes do not have ANYTHING to do with alcohol or drugs, therefore rehab would be unreasonable. These crimes are stealing and then violating probation by lying to the police.
If she broke her probation by getting a DUI or something, I could see an easy-out with rehab. However, based on this situation I am REALLY hoping that justice is actually served this time.

Those sunspots (?) are distracting, her skin is covered with them! They are sunspots? I mean, they do stop at the b00b line, after all…..
Report this comment as spam or abuse
For real? Those are these things called “freckles”. I have the exact same thing as she has. My covered parts do not have the freckles, because they only reveal themselves when they get a little sun. They get even darker when they have more sun. Since I don’t lay out in the buff, the rest of me is whiter than pale, but the freckles cover every other exposed part. It’d be a good idea to remember this for future reference.

Esthetician chiming in. Her freckles are indeed hyperpigmentation caused by the sun, or… sunspots. It’s exactly why we don’t get them in areas we cover when in the sun. The sun isn’t just making your freckles darker, it’s causing them to begin with.

Well that’s interesting because I have freckles on my shoulders and I NEVER wear sleeveless shirts outside. I don’t think my shoulders have ever seen sunlight.

Meh, it’s still most likely from the sun. Your clothing offers some spf protection but it’s not 100%- average spf 7-30. You’re either very fair or just genetically prone to freckling (as a reaction to the sun) or both. I think freckles are often adorable- just explaining their source.:)

This is in response to Paradis (anyone know why you can only reply to certain posts? Am I missing something obvious?)
I have some freckles in my baby pics. As I was born in January in Shetland I think I can safely say they have nothing to do with sun exposure. Sure I have lots more now after a childhood and adulthood spent in Australia and the middle east but some of them predate any sun. Freckles aren’t all sun related.

Well, I’ve never heard freckles called “sun spots” but I’ll bow to the wisdom of the esthetician.
However, freckles/sun spots are as common as ginger hair and usually accompany it, so get used to it.

So true. I was thinking at first that the legal system had failed her because it can impose consequences that can really force a change. Also, she has committed crimes. Where’s the punishment?
Then I was thinking that the legal system is actually failing US, the bystanders. We need protection from addicts like her — out of control and a danger to herself and everyone around her.
I have compassion for her and her addiction issues, but it’s tough to maintain these days…

To be fair I assume the earlier judge meant automatic jail if the violation is proven. Innocent unt proven guilty and all that. However, it’s a different judge so I’m sure automatic will become “automatic” meaning “nope”. Such a joke.

Eh, it really is in the Judge’s discretion. Pretty much if LL’s attorney can advocate an alternative, workable, “feasible & fair” alternative, then the Judge may agree with that.
Now, I know many of you think that a Judge would be crazy to look at her track record and think otherwise, but hey, that’s how lawyers make their $$$.

That’s a pretty old one around here, but we haven’t used it very much in a long time.
I posted this in her other thread. I am just done with her. I will never , ever feel sorry for her. This on comparing her to RDJ.
(on his addiction to drugs): It`s like I have a loaded gun in my mouth, and I like the taste of metal.
He wanted to go to jail. Cracken is the complete opposite. She has no remorse, thinks she has done no wrong. I feel sorry for a drug addict like RDJ was. The cracken just isn’t an addict, she is a criminal, a grifter, a whore, a thief, a liar, she hits people with cars, she has no talent, she is unrepentant and irredeemable. She will never change, ever. Look at WO.
Brooke Mueller just went to rehab for the 19th time and if she didn’t have kids I wouldn’t care at all. SHe’s a mess, but contained and just sad. The Cracken is on the loose, out of control and cannot stop getting into trouble.
She isn’t a drug addict ODing alone, she’s a damned threat to anyone near her. How many people has she hit? Run into? Bullied? Fought with? How much has she stolen and destroyed and still maintained it wasn’t her fault. Obviously it was the “black guy” or ‘the assistant”.
No one in the world should feel sorry for this trick. Ever.
I will continue to pray for a long jail sentence because I am ever the optimist. It can’t hurt and I would LOVE having her in jail for a year. DOn’t tell me it won’t happen. Let me dream a little. It’s Christmas time, when belief can be suspended for a brief moment in the year.
I look forward to an epic 32 days.

I used to wish her the best. and i still hope one day she’ll wake up cut off her family (momma lohan-who amazes me by looks 20 years younger than Lilo) clean up and grow up.
but that won’t even happen after the apocalypse., I mean she’s worse than a cockroach-she’ll outlive us all by 100 years at this point i’m convinced.

I don’t know about LA specifically but I suspect people are overplaying LL’s celebrity as a reason for her lenient treatment. In the US the jails are already running at 3-4 times capacity. It is simply not possible to lock up all lower end offenders. If you cause serious injury then you’ll likely face incarceration but otherwise generally it’s probation, home detention, court ordered rehab etc

When I went to LA in early August I saw Lindsay at the chateau marmont with her mother not only drinking but popping pills that her mother gave her while drinking alcohol and saw a bag that looked like it contained weed. There is a lot of substances abuse going on and jail will do her good so she can detox maybe it will encourage her mom to get help she needs too it was so sad watching them behave like that I see an awful end if they keep this up.I wonder how Ali is doing??

People don’t realize that the legal process in general is slow, sometimes cases can take YEARS to settle and dispute. I think with all these shows on tv like law and order, we assume that everything A. goes to trial and B. people are charged and convicted within days. This is far from the truth.

Thanks for this comment – I was going to say something similar. The process can be frustratingly slow, and it has very little (if anything) to do with her fame. It’s also not specific to CA. When I lived in NV, a friend was killed by a drunk driver. There were SO many delays and hearings and continuances…it was about 2 years before the woman who killed him saw her first day in prison. So, hopefully Lilo will serve some time…but it’s not going to be tomorrow.

I am always surprised at people’s outrage over La Lohan’s legal woes. For one, California’s prison and jail systems are supremely overcrowded, so most individuals do not serve the full amount of time they were sentenced, this is not unusual or because Lindsay is a celebrity. Like you said, your friend was killed by a drunk driver and the amount of time it took for that person to be convicted was longer than what most people would assume. One of my husband’s co workers was killed by a drunk driver, not only was he drunk, but he was already on probation and was speed racing. It took several months for him to be charged and a couple years for the case to go to court, he was convicted of vehicular manslaughter, driving on a suspended driver’s license, speeding (btw, he was going about 115 mph in a residential neighborhood), and violating his probation. Guess what? he didn’t even serve 6 months in prison and he is already out. There is no such thing as justice! Not to mention this kid bragged about what he did, showed zero remorse.
Our legal system is heavily flawed and it seems like the ones who give less of a $hit skate by at it’s expense. This isn’t because she is Lindsay Lohan, it’s an example of all the loopholes and inconsistencies in the legal system. The people who should pay, never do.

Since about 20 or 21, I guess, she has lived a vapid life and contributed in zero way to living on this earth. She drugs, drinks, steals, uses people, does appearances to make money to drug and drink more, and stays in trouble with the law nonstop, and has done a couple of poor movies. She is 26 years old, not a baby, but her life is just a trainwreck, nothing more.
Robert Downey, Jr., had intelligence, great talent, even in during his dark period always had some class to him still. You rooted for him because when you would see him in a movie or like when he appeared on Ally McBeal, he was brilliant and charming and funny. Lindsay has none of that anymore. Just an aged-looking girl with horrible plastic surgery and zero class ever even peaking out during these years, spending her time crashing parties trying to get free things or appear relevant.

Robert Downey Jr was more of a Britney Spears type, in the sense that the whole thing was just sad. I read a story that floated around about him taking the wrong drink at Starbucks, and the barrista following him out to switch them, and RDJ being just incoherent and dead behind the eyes.
With Lindsay, she is smart enough and coherent enough to do better, she just blatantly chooses not to because she thinks she’s above it all. I still don’t believe she’s a drug addict or a drunk. I think she has a mental addiction to partying and thinks the rules don’t apply to her. I think she could quit booze and drugs cold turkey tomorrow if she just ate a slice of humble pie and said, “yes, the rules DO apply to me, and I’ve been a brat. Time to change.”

Probation seldom results in the inabilty to travel domestically unless a judge determines that it has a strong likelihood to be violated.

…And what would you title it?

seems to me this is more connected to keeping judges fully employed… read news accounts of any recent cases, and you’ll see the original crimes were committed 5+ years ago. it’s disgraceful; and just another example of the collapse of u.s. institutions.
well, unless you’re a 17yo lower class kid caught selling pot. then your ass is immediately custody of the state.

It’s incredible how Lindsay Lohan keeps going in and out of court and she violated her probation and they still haven’t put her in jail where she belongs. It’s about time.

Soooooooooooooo tired of hearing this losers name. Will she ever get the punishment she deserves? No. Why? Because just like we don’t want to spend time or money watching her movies, t.v. appearances, buy any of her products (leggings, tanning spray etc.), the judicial courts don’t want to spend their time over her either. Lets just accept it, no one wants any thing to do with Lindsay Lohan except men who pay for her company. She is too old and used up to be a model of any kind, her lack of acting skills and her addictions will keep her right where she is—-in the media for being a f**k up.

While I agree with you about the collapse of U.S. institutions, you are absolutely wrong about judges doing this to stay employed.
California (SoCal at least) has beautiful weather but right now that is about the only positive thing you can say about this place. The State is broke, LA County is broke and the City of Los Angeles is literally on the verge of bankruptcy.
The amount of money that has been cut from the budget of the Superior Court system is unbelievable. The staff is being cut from judges on down. Another round is due next year. Judges are supposed to move things along. A judge who doesn’t will find themselves in traffic court in a trailer somewhere.
That said, what went on today was standard procedure.
It’s come up before that I’m a family law attorney. Family court often gets short shrift in terms of budget. We are losing judges and courtrooms. They have been threatening to take away the deputies with guns and replace them with “security.” It takes forever to get court dates. It is bad. But, it is beautiful!

She has good eyebrows.
At least she’s never plucked them into oblivion like so many people do.
Nice one Linds

Her eyebrows squick me out. They’re too far apart and are shaped like parentheses.

There’s a good reason she doesn’t take the whole situation seriously: Even if she does wind up sentenced to jail, she’ll probably only serve a day or two. It’s a complete joke.
In all seriousness, Lindsay would actually benefit from a long stint in jail. She obviously got substance abuse problems, and it’s doubtful she’ll ever get clean without being totally removed from all temptation.

Nothing going on here . . . Michael is over on ROL stating that her new PR group is turning down jobs that will give her income (how he knows this I do not know). Apparantly one of the jobs would be as a spokesperson for a Don’t Drink and Drive Campaign (having a hard time typing this without laughing). More fodder for tomorrow on CB!

Thanks for the story tip. That was funny. If she doesn’t want anything to do with him how come he knows so much about her business opportunities?
No pride, no shame, will shill for anything at this point. Except any company that hires her as a spokesperson will just look foolish. How much did Mr. Pink pay her and she couldn’t even hold the can the right way?

I don’t believe ML has ever been completely out of her life. He’s in the dog house, but never totally out.
The new pr team hasn’t commented on anything since before her arrest. I thought the dropped her. Just like The Wanted.

Um, hasn’t she left with The Wanted back to the UK?
Extradition – oy!

Well, nothing was ever going to actually happen to her today anyway. I hold out the faint hope things will finally catch up to her next month but it is a very faint hope. No matter because the Feds are still after her and they care not one whit about how awesome “Mean Girls” was. There’s shady doings with her finances that owing back taxes doesn’t even begin to cover, I can’t help thinking. The IRS will work with you to pay what you owe but if you have actually willfully evaded taxes by, say– just off the top of my head–taking large amounts of cash for appearences that you do not report to the people who you have hired to file for you, you will do time.

My now ex boyfriend is in jail awaiting sentencing for stealing 5k worth of checks in 2 weeks to fund a crack binge.
He has been in this same position before, the past 10 years of his life have been a series of massive falls from grace, recovery, and a return to his same old patterns.
I hate to say it, I hate to even think of him in jail, but he’s done the rehab rodeo so many times and it never sticks, a year or so in jail might be the only thing that finally inflicts enough suffering and forces him to keep his mind clear long enough, in full and abject realization of just how deep a hole he’s dug, to keep him from forgetting why he can’t start using again the next time he gets the bright idea to get high “just for today”. Addicts, we forget so easily. We forget the pain, the misery, the humiliation that is inevitable each time we start using again. But most people who relapse over and over, or never stop in the first place, just haven’t suffered enough. It’s amazing how much one often has to suffer before one can stop making the same mistakes.
Lindsay is even worse. I say this because she has never displayed, at least publicly, the slightest glimmer of self-awareness. She absolutely needs jail time. It may save her life, for what it’s worth. I have a hard time even feeling empathy for her because I get the sense that she is just a worthless narcissist who happens to have a drug problem, rather than a drug addict who behaves like a narcissist as a result of her drug problem.
Lock her up. For her sake.

Vvvoid, you SO nailed it! She is a horrible person with a drug problem, which is SO different than a drug abuser who does horrible things.

There has to be a sentencing hearing, because all this trial established is whether she technically broke probation – not whether it was a minor/egregious violation.
If sentences were automatic, the guy jay-walking on his last day of probation and the guy who knocked off a pharmacy two days after being released would get the same punishment. Which would be utterly ridiculous.
Whether sentencing happens at a totally separate trial depends on state law. I think they have to be held separately in California (but I’m not an expert).
