Celebrity Justice
Lindsay Cops Plea! -- She'll Do Time

Lindsay Lohan will not stand trial for DUI -- but she'll do a teeny tiny amount of jail time.

She just struck a deal by pleading no contest to two counts of DUI (driving with a .08 blood alcohol level or higher). By law, Lohan becomes a second offender (with two DUIs) and must serve a minimum of four days in jail. But the judge cut that in half by ordering her to perform 10 days of community service in lieu of two of the days. He also gave Lindsay one day credit for time served when she was busted. That means she gets a grand total of one day in jail.

Lohan also pleaded guilty to two counts of being under the influence of a controlled substance (two separate incidents) -- both misdemeanors. She also pleaded no contest to reckless driving.

The judge said Lohan will serve 36 months probation and attend an alcohol education program for 18 months.

As to the controlled substance plea, Lohan was ordered not to use controlled substances. She's also required to enroll in a drug program. She's also required to stay for an unspecified amount of time at the Utah facility where she's currently in rehab.

Lohan was also ordered "not to associate with people with controlled substances."

On January 18, Lohan must show she's successfully completed rehab.

31. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!

Who was the judge presiding today? This is a travesty of justice.

May the first vehicle Lohan crashes into driving drunk with a "legal" amount of blow up her nose, be the one carrying the LA Dist. Att, the judge, and her lawyers. Might as well add her parents in the vehicle also. All useless wastes of air to breath.

These Hollywood trainwrecks and their attorneys really know how to "wipe asses with $$$$"!

32. If Ms. Lohan were a poor minority woman instead of a rich white celebutard, she would never have been let out of prison in the first place, much less sentenced so lightly. She'd be picking her teeth up off of the cafeteria floor and avoiding the sexual advances of prison guards. The system only works for rich and middle class whites. How many black women are in jail for less than this?

33. Wow. Well, I'm sure it'll be no time at all before someone offers her blow, and she'll be back where she started, all over the blogs and tabloids, and (hopefully) headed for jail where she belongs. Here's to the end of her career! *CLINK*

35. THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THE TWO-TIER JUSTICE SYSTEM ... ONE FOR THE "CELEBRITIES" AND THE OTHER FOR THE ORDINARY PEONS WHO STRUGGLE TO MAKE A LIVING, PAY OUR TAXES, OBEY THE LAWS AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. REMINDS ME OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION WHEN THE PEONS REBELLED AGAINST THE SAME SORT OF SYSTEM AND THE HOI POLI LOST THEIR HEADS. PERHAPS WE NEED ANOTHER REVOLUTION IN THIS COUNTRY!

39. So if I go out in LA, commit the crimes (or should I say "what crimes") Lohan has done, does this mean this "slap on the hand" sentence has just set a precedent in the legal books and I CAN SUE THEIR ASSES OFF for discrimination when I end up a convicted felon and a couple of years in jail?

41. Where's Judge Sauer when you need him!!

42. Seems she got off easier than Nicole and certainly got off a lot easier than Paris. All the more reason to think the judge was using Paris as an example to others. In the end, I just hope they are three learn from these experiences and become more responsible.
