The people closest to Lindsay Lohan aren't the only ones who are alarmed at her condition -- some police officers who routinely come in contact with Lindsay tell TMZ they have thought seriously about forcing her to get help.

Cops who see Lindsay at her worst -- late nights and early mornings when she needs assistance avoiding the paparazzi -- tell TMZ they have been concerned about her "erratic behavior" and "attitude," which have grown progressively worse over the last few months.

We're told during one of Lindsay's crazier nights out recently, cops became so concerned they discussed taking her in for a 5150 evaluation.

Cops decided against it because she didn't meet all the criteria for a 5150 -- they felt she could still take care of herself, though feebly.

As we first reported, a professional who is extremely close to Lindsay fears she's going to die if she doesn't get help for substance abuse ... stat.

TMZ has learned Dr. Conrad Murray has not reached out to Michael Jackson's family to apologize for the death of the singer. As for why Dr. Murray has not apologized ... he believes he did nothing improper that would have led to Jackson's death.

A source connected to Dr. Murray tells TMZ ... Dr. Murray does not believe the Propofol he administered to the singer killed him, not withstanding the L.A. County Coroner's conclusion that Jackson died from a lethal overdose of the anesthetic.

The source tells TMZ the reason Dr. Murray never told paramedics about administering Propofol is because he had no idea the drug was a factor in Jackson's demise.

As for allegedly hiding Propofol bottles in the closet at Jackson's house ... Dr. Murray's people note it was the doctor himself who informed LAPD detectives two days after Jackson's death that the bottles were in the closet.

People who have been trying to help Lindsay over the last year -- both professionally and personally -- feel something terrible will happen unless she immediately gets help for substance abuse. We are not talking about Michael or Dina Lohan. These are people who have quietly been trying to convince Lindsay to go to rehab again.

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Joey Porter was arrested outside a Taco Bell this morning after officials say Porter put his hands on a cop.

According to the California Highway Patrol, Joey was driving in a Taco Bell parking lot in Bakersfield -- his home town -- when a friend of Joey's was stopped by police.

According to officials, Porter pulled up near the action -- too close apparently -- because a CHP officer rolled over to his car, where he detected the smell of alcohol coming from Porter's car.

Cops say the officer asked for Porter's driver's license, but he refused to hand it over. ... instead, officials say, the 33-year-old tried to roll up his window.

Cops say the officer tried to reach in the car to manually unlock the car -- and that's when Porter "slapped" the officer's hand away.

According to the CHP, the officer decided to grab Porter's arm -- and that's when things got crazy. Porter allegedly got out of his car "in a confrontational manner."

The officer claims he drew his pistol and ordered Porter to the ground, but he wouldn't comply -- though he did ultimately agree to place his hands behind his head.

Additional officers were called to the scene to aid in the arrest. Porter was eventually taken into custody and booked at a nearby jail. He was eventually charged with 3 misdemeanors -- DUI, resisting arrest and assault on a peace officer.

Brigitte Daguerre -- a Los Angeles photographer -- claims Jesse hired her in 2008 to do styling work for a West Coast Choppers photo shoot. She says the two emailed and texted each other for a year, but claims they only had sex four times before she cut it off.

Throughout the exchanges, Jesse repeatedly asks Daguerre to send pictures and set up rendezvous. In one exchange, Daguerre complained that Jesse wasn't letting loose. He explains, "I'm texting you in secret."

Approximately 20 doctors received subpoenas yesterday in connection with the Corey Haim death investigation ... law enforcement tells TMZ.

The names of the doctors appear on various prescriptions written for Haim.

We've learned the doctors are from L.A., Orange and Ventura counties ... all in Southern California.

The L.A. County Coroner's Office served the subpoenas -- investigators want to review medical records to review treatment and prescriptions.

Law enforcement tells TMZ seven of the doctors say they never saw Corey Haim or prescribed medications for him. Investigators believe the prescriptions for the seven docs may be linked to the fraudulent prescription ring currently under investigation by the State Attorney General.

And, we've learned, 2 - 3 more doctors in the Haim investigation will be subpoenaed by week's end.

TMZ has obtained an email sent Saturday by seller Amer Haddadin to one of Dr. Phil's producers, asking the famous doc for help. According to the email, "Dr. Phil and Operah (sic) took personal interest in the steps that led to Nadia (sic) moving to the house. I have a hope that both Dr. Phil and Operah will help me in timely and fair solution."

You'll recall Dr. Phil and his people were all over the La Habra house before Octo moved in.

As we first reported, Octo is late making the $450,000 balloon payment to the seller and he'll initiate foreclosure proceedings if she doesn't pay by the end of the day tomorrow.

The seller's rep tells TMZ Octo's lawyer told him she shouldn't have to pay because the roof and plumbing are bad. And, her lawyer wants to mediate the mess -- not go through foreclosure.

No immediate word from Dr. Phil or Oprah.

UPDATE: According to the big O's rep, "Oprah has not financially assisted Ms. Suleman in the past and has no plans to do so in the future."

UPDATE 2: A rep for Dr. Phil tells us, "Dr Phil has no plans to become involved in the Suleman family's current situation."

Dr. Murray is responding to a story which cites a paramedic report, claiming Dr. Murray never told the EMTs he administered Propofol to the singer just before he stopped breathing.

The rep for Dr. Murray's lawyer, Ed Chernoff tells TMZ, "We are currently in receipt of almost 2800 pages of discovery from the Los Angeles prosecutors and we have been assured that more is coming. What we have does not include this 'official' paramedics report, cited in the News of the World story."

The rep says Dr. Murray will not address the accusation -- at least not now -- because Chernoff hasn't seen the report.

The rep is quick to add, "We can say unequivocally that Dr. Murray did everything in his power to save Michael Jackson's life and that he fully cooperated with both the paramedics at the scene and physicians at UCLA Medical Center."

Jesse said in his declaration, "Sunny now has a family, school, friends, pets, and community free from pornography and drugs." Jesse goes on ... he wanted to make sure if Janine had contact with their child, the court should "restrain her from allowing Sunny to be around drugs or pornography..." Unclear if strip clubs count.

As we first reported, Janine plans to go to court in June to try and seek a modification in the custody order now that Jesse's home life is in obvious upheaval.

We've learned Janine has filed legal papers in their custody case involving six-year-old daughter, Sunny. Currently Jesse has full custody of Sunny. Janine lives in a halfway house, after being locked up for tax evasion.

We're told until this week Janine knew she didn't stand a chance of gaining even partial custody from Jesse. She felt Sandra Bullock was such a stabilizing family influence, a judge would shut her down.

But Janine now believes Sandra will divorce Jesse and she feels she has a shot at getting some custodial rights.

Her court date is set for June 14.

Marie Osmond's late son, Michael Bryan, told his roommates that he believed a former girlfriend had drugged him to the point he blacked out three days before he jumped to his death ... sources tell TMZ.

We're told Michael's roommates told law enforcement they planned on going out with Michael three nights before he died ... but he told them he couldn't go because he had made plans.

Sources say Michael didn't come back to the apartment that night. When he finally returned home he told his roommates an ex-girlfriend had contacted him, saying she was in town. Michael told his roommates he had blacked out and eventually awakened, only to find himself laying in a street several blocks from his apartment. Michael told his roommates he believed the ex-girlfriend had drugged him.

The roommates told law enforcement Michael had been sick for the next two days ... up to the time he died.

We're told law enforcement contacted the ex-girlfriend, who says she wasn't even in town the night Michael claimed she drugged him.

The L.A. County Coroner's Office is awaiting toxicology reports to determine if drugs were in Michael's system when he died.

Octomom Nadya Suleman received a very nice letter from someone who says he is truly sorry her house may go into foreclosure and, he says, "I can only imagine the anxiety that this must be causing you and your family." But this guy isn't just talk ... he's willing to pay off her home if Octo stars in a sex tape.

TMZ has obtained a letter from Steven Hirsch, Prez of Vivid Entertainment, to Octomom, in which he offers to pay off the balance due on the house -- around $460,000 -- if she's willing to take it lying down.

As we first reported, the person who sold Octo and her dad the La Habra, CA home says he'll initiate foreclosure proceedings if she doesn't pay up the $460k by the end of business on Tuesday.

Hirsch writes in the letter, dated March 20, "We have extensive experience in working with beautiful and sexy women." Hirsch cites Kim Kardashian, Shauna Sand, and former Miss USA Kelli McCarty.

No word from Octomom on what could surely be a star turn.
