5. Here's another overpaid defense lawyer spinning crap again. Receiving daily reports -- BS!
The ankle bracelet was a scam and never hooked up.

7. CYA. She's been a basket case for years, and rehab has just been a PR move to reassure the insurance companies.

8. R U kidding. Back to treatment she goes. She has zero desire to get better, only for the courts sake does she go. Why didn't they keep her in jail. The average joe would be

9. Addiction is no joke, but it's something people like Lindsay Lohan bring on themselves. And because no one in her life (including her vile, disgusting parents) wants to see the gravy train dry up, they just allow her to do whatever she wants.

The press release shouldn't make any difference - Lindsay Lohan should go to jail if convicted. Just like anyone else.

11. Get help! Move out of Cali to clean yourself up. Get away from old friends that may influence you and stay away from the parties. Hopefully some jailtime will wake her up to everything that is going seriously wrong in her life.

13. The sad fact is this. If she doesn't want to be helped, really, then she won't be.
I had a stepdaughter, the same hard headedness. Our pleas for her safety fell upon deaf ears, and she was killed driving drunk (4 times over the limit), and took two of her friends with her.
I hope Ms. Lohan can find it within herself to recover from her addictions.
I don't think she needs bashed right now. Only my opinion.

14. Funny how the atty. says she relapsed. She was using drugs while she was in rehab! How did she relapse? She was never sober to begin with Moron lawyer.

15.
Okay I'm just tossing it out there... (SO HERE ME OUT)...

I know most everyone does stupid crap when their younger, and after their 20's they just grow out of it... Could this be a case of growing pains.. (however it's in the lime light daily)...
