Lohan and Bodyguard -- Bullies Behind the Wheel?

If two DUIs in three months weren't enough of a legal pile-up for Lindsay Lohan, now TMZ has learned that she may have pulled some dangerous moves on the road that allegedly led to an accident in April -- and that afterward, her longtime bodythug, Jazman, may have lied about his identity.

Signe Dupuy of Los Angeles tells TMZ that around 4.30 AM on April 26, Lindsay pulled an illegal U-turn in front of her at the intersection of Fairfax and Colgate, veering from the left southbound lane all the way over to the other side of Fairfax -- in "a little black sports car." Then, says Dupuy, a black SUV driven by Jaz (last name: Bennett) cut her off, slicing in from the next lane, at which point her car hit the SUV's back wheel.

Lindsay actually stopped and glared at her, claims Dupuy, before peeling off into the night. Meanwhile, the infamous Jazman was "hostile" and "tried to intimidate" her in the immediate aftermath, according to Dupuy, and when asked for his name and driver's license, gave her the (fake) name "James Clark" and a fake number, which she says was confirmed by Jaz's insurance adjuster.

Dupuy has fired off a letter to Lohan's rep trying to "settle the situation," but says she hasn't heard back. She adds that she's considering filing suit against Bennett and Lohan.

Lindsay's rep tells us she did get the letter but "filed it away," adding "I assumed the letter was sent to [Lindsay's] lawyers . That's what they're paid for."

18. Ok, we all know Lindsay's past driving record and that she's a trainwreck, but come on...
it's obvious this person is just seeking attention and money!
Waited all this time to seek retribution?
And like one of the other people stated, she never filed a police report?
What exactly was Ms. Dupuy's reasoning for not bringing the police in on the accident at the time it happened?

I'm going to assume the obvious - she lacked either insurance or a legal license, or probably both.

haha.. good luck with that piece of paper, dumb ass.

19. "However, I was advised by the court to try and settle the situation
before I actually file a suit, which is why I'm contacting you."

Court to Dupuy: "Did you file a police report?"
Dupuy: "um... No, but I do have this piece of paper with a name and number on it."
Court: "Oh, yea? A name and number, eh?.... Look..you don't have a case to stand on. All you have is a piece of paper. Whoop ti doo! A PIECE OF PAPER!. Get the hell out of here and quit wasting the court's time with your unofficial piece of paper."


That's undoubtedly how it really went down.
I'm not backing Lohan or her bodyguard, but come on, this is ridiculous.
I'm tired of people like this person who tie up the courts with frivilous suits that cause our insurance prices to go up.

25. Not everyone who's not a high-profile person, is out to get their "15 mins" of fame just because they get indadvertently get involved with such a person. Signe Dupuy may have a legitimate complaint against Lindsay and her bodyguard Jaz Bennett. Why does someone like Lindsay, need to be out partying at 4 a.m. unless they had an emergency??!

26.
I do believe the mother of the personal assistant. The story was brought up in the show
of Nancy Grace and there is valid proof the poor lady was terrified. The recording of the
lady's call to 911 is enough proof. This lady needs to get a police report as soon as
possible and get a lawyer to take matter into legal hands. Besides, Lindsey Lohan
keeps bugging her daughter and chasing them-so with more reason. Who knows what
will be the next thing she does to them. The news has already leaked out and that's good
so the police and court judges know all things Lindsey has done to others. I don't know
why Terin (the former assistant) and the mother assistant haven't been interviewed on T.V
maybe they are afraid of lunatic Lohan.
Why do Hollywood producers want to keep her in movies? Isn't her reputation bad enough
already? Her image is no longer good for any movies. I wish they understood that!
My advice to all those that have been hurt by Lohan is do what it takes to stop this girl and to protect yourself. Meanwhile, don't worry the judges will make her respect the law and they won't be afraid of her. She'll be afraid of THEM and their rule! Who cares if she is talented?! She keeps commiting crimes and should not receive any leniency. She definitely will go
to prison and maybe for a long time and should not be given any star treatment or privileges.
A good psychiatrist would make her understand she suffers from maniac depression and
bipolar disorder, needs to take her medicines and stay away fom drugs and alcohol and away from the wheel.
