Let’s all take a deep breath (of crack fumes) and recap what went down yesterday. Lindsay rejected the Hamptons rehab facility because they wouldn’t let her smoke, so she waited until the very last minute to fly to California (in hysterics, apparently) to check herself into a rehab in Newport Beach called Morningside. LL’s lawyer and the prosecutor met with the judge in an emergency hearing because no one had signed off on this new rehab, and the judge basically said “EH” and let LL stay at Morningside pending further approval. As it turns out, WHILE the hearing was going on, Lindsay had checked out of the rehab because OMG OF COURSE. So here’s what has happened since:
*Allegedly, Lindsay had 12 hours to return to the rehab, which it doesn’t look like she did. This morning, the city attorney is going to go to the judge and ask for an arrest warrant. A source tells Radar, “Lindsay leaving the rehab center that a judge was actually allowing her to stay in was a big mistake. Making that decision has serious consequences and if she doesn’t have her attorney deal with this tonight then the City Attorney is going to go to court in the morning to get a warrant for her arrest.”
*TMZ says that Lindsay never in fact checked into Morningside at all – she just rolled up in her SUV, never got out of the car, and then the SUV left. And she never came back. TMZ says that if Lindsay doesn’t show up by 6 am PST (9 am EST), the arrest warrant will be issued.
*TMZ also says that Lindsay has “begged” Shawn Holley to return as her lawyer because LL is “angry” with Mark Heller for recommending Morningside. TMZ says – and this probably comes straight from the Teflon Cracken’s mouth – that Lindsay “decided she didn’t want to go” to Morningside when she learned (from TMZ!) that Morningside had its license revoked. Ha.
*As for Holley, LL was apparently in contact with her throughout the day yesterday and Holley has agreed to take Lindsay back as a client (OH GOD). Holley has been in touch with prosecutors, trying to get them to agree to a rehab facility other than Morningside. Mark Heller might be fired now?
*And Radar claims that Lindsay has been “cleared” to enter Betty Ford (again), in a deal brokered by Shawn Holley. A source says, “Lindsay cut a last minute deal with the D.A. to go to Betty Ford. Shawn Holley helped to broker the agreement with [Los Angeles] City Attorney [Terry White] late Thursday night. It’s unclear if she has checked in.”
*Radar’s source: “Lindsay cannot stand her current lawyer and thinks he doesn’t know what he is doing. So late Thursday, from hiding, she began calling emailing Shawn incessantly. Shawn has always had a soft spot for Lindsay, even after everything she has pulled. She hates to see her suffering.”
*Another source claims that Lindsay was going to treat Morningside like a hotel: “Lindsay had her ‘publicist’ call all day on Thursday making outrageous demands … like that she needed her cell phone with her at all times. It’s like she thinks Morningside is a hotel. The staff at the facility doesn’t need nor want this drama. Lindsay’s actions on Thursday were very disruptive.”
So, I guess LL will probably be heading back to Betty Ford, which is where she was a few years ago, and they kept giving her day passes to go out drinking. When she returned to that facility after breaking her curfew one night, one of the staffers tried to stop her and punish her and Lindsay beat the woman with a phone. I can’t imagine that Betty Ford wants LL back, but who knows? And I guess she has less than an hour to check in. I’ll update if there’s anything more…
UPDATE: TMZ says that Lindsay is now “safely ensconced” at Betty Ford. Apparently, she checked in last night after Shawn Holley negotiated with the city attorney. TMZ says, “We’re told prosecutors will back off their promise to seek an arrest warrant today … although they still have to get the judge to sign off on Betty Ford, but it looks like that will just be a formality.”

She NEEDS jail. The whole 90 days. For the sake of being sat on her a** and being knocked down ten pegs. Might save her life.
…Unlikely though. California’s judges seem to be ball-less and permissive.
California jails are over crowded. 90 day sentence means maybe 3-5 days in jail. She needs like a Britney lock down situation; without it having to go to attempt suicide first. Lots of doctors, therapists, and a period to allow for withdrawal.
Well then something that is GENUINELY locked down. Being made to go there and stay there with no ‘special’ treatment. Cold turkey.
It’s just stupid and embarrassing for the whole system when you look at all the crap she gets away with, without anybody even trying to put their foot down. You can tell she truly thinks she’s above it all and laws don’t apply to her – and nobody is proving her wrong.
The original sentence was much much longer, she will spend a considerable time in jail. Trust.
Happy Friday Everybody!!!! Weeeee!
Except Britney had/has readeaming qualities. I don’t think it would work for LH because that just isn’t there so there is no good to bring out at this point. Sorry, just don’t see anything working for her. They need to just let her take care of herself except I know she’ll take an innocent life with her!
California jails are overcrowded because all of those non-violent drug offenders. Lets make sure we lock up someone for smoking pot to relax on the weekends, but let this violent, dangerous, entitled, strung out POS go to a “rehab” resort.
Yes. It’s completely absurd that she’s essentially controlling and setting the demands for her punishment. She’s out of her mind, she needs an unceremonious kick up the arse reality check as she obviously thinks she’s some special species exempt from human decency and consequences. This law system is a fucking joke
Can I be the one to kick her, please, please, please?
If anyone is interested and need’s a Lindsay fix there is a interview with Pier’s Morgan on Mail.Online.It’s a british paper.it’s completely delusional.The one thing I think she is telling the truth about is her Dad,the rest is the truth as Lindsay see’s it.This girl need’s a lot of help.
Cracktinis are ready…come and get it!!
Oh Kaiser, with Crackie there’s always more!
Oooh, a delicious cracktini with a dash of delusion. My favourite tipple for a Friday afternoon.
Idiot. And this is from someone who has a soft spot for LL.
Seriously time to put her in jail
I’m guessing Holley’s “soft spot” is a paid bill – or a solid payment plan.
I think she does have a soft spot. But Lindsay is marketing and publicity for her. All I know is I am thoroughly impressed with her as a criminal lawyer in many ways from all the coverage and would hire her.
I can’t believe Shawn Holley took her back. Doesn’t Cracken still owe her money?
Don’t. Because it’s not happening and her options are played out, she’s 300 feet below the surface with one breath of air in her tank.
QueenFreddie
Love the name! Shawn is no fool. It’s possible that when Shawn first took Lindsey on Lindsey could pay her bills, but once her credit and income went south Shawn set up an escrow account. In case you don’t know that’s when A owes B. B wants to be sure A pays them. A and B both trust C as an independent 3rd party to hold A’s money and distribute it to B when A owes B. That was fun to type and I hope it wasn’t confusing. So Shawn may have made sure Lindsey put money aside that she can’t withdraw and Shawn always gets paid.
Now if the IRS is still freezing her accounts this might have been frozen too. And this could all be bs too. Shawn may not really be back, but that could be my wishful thinking.
🙂 You’re probably right. I just find Shawn Holley the most fascinating part of this story. I hate myself for wishing Lindsay had a reality show because I would watch it. lol!
Either any or all of the above, or Lohan’s crack shenanigans are worth their weight in gold — i.e., publicity for Holley and her practice. Granted, Holley is an established attorney and I can’t imagine she’s hurting for clients. But I worked at a law firm years ago, and as I recall, even the partners had to work hard at “rainmaking.” So maybe repping Lohan is worth it, just because doing so keeps Holley and her firm in the papers and in potential clients’ minds? Hmmmmm ….
Shawn, Shawn, Shawn: No, no, no, no, NOOOOOOOO!
Even money in escrow is not worth the aggravation from this chick! But I’ve got to hand it to her, she’s certainly marked herself as the lawyer who will stick by you no matter how deep in shit you get. Wow that must be good for business. I hope it’s worth the aggravation.
I honestly can’t decide if she’s smart enough to pull all these crack shenanigans so that when she does deign to go to Betty Ford, the judge and prosecutor will just let it slid because at least she’s in a facility somewhere, or if she’s high and entitled or what.
Despite myself I’d still like to see her get sober, lie low for a couple of years and then make a come back. I think she’s too far gone though. And sadly, her parents are just as bad as she is, so there’s no one who could take on a conservatorship or anything like that.
She won’t make any real comeback. She wrecked her face.
I truly love the Lohan posts. They are as entertaining as anything out there; however, this is a death watch at this point. I’m sorry, but it is. Lohan is hell bent on self-destruction. Just pray she doesn’t take another living soul with her.
Agree. Somewhere her obituary has already been written.
Are you kidding Nicolette? Her charming psycho parents have had dueling obits prepared for her for the past 5 years. Just think of the interviews, books, movie etc., that they will be shilling. Knowing them, they will probably fight both over and at her funeral. They’ll get their own channel on TMZ.
@Lady D
You’re right.
Oh, there will be E! specials and VH1 (do they still exist?) specials and MTV specials galore, all with everyone who ever had a drink thrown at him/her or was ever hit by Lindsay with car. And think of the TMZ & Radar “exclusives” as well as all the ragmag covers.
Remember Anna Nicole? THAT.
And don’t forget allowing Entertainment Tonight special coverage of the funeral.
Because there is no better way to preserve your loved one’s name in effigy than to sell her legacy to the highest bidder.
As someone from outside the US I really don’t understand how this legally works. So as long as her attorney (who ever that may be) is in contact with the DA and brokers another clinic for her, this whole thing will blow over and she can do her rehab?
It was hard to follow from the beginning, but after yesterday I feel that this whole mess is nothing more than a serious wake up call for the California Judicial system that the jokes on them.
If I were living in California I’d fear that this case could become a precedent for future misdemeanor offenders, which means that you can just drag things out until the end of time without any consequences whatsoever.
As someone who lives in the US and has an associates in law, I don’t understand how this legally works. Trust me, this is not normal procedure. It’s LOHAN Procedure.
It is an aggravating case to follow especially if you are an American living in a state with stricter laws and punishments.
The key to understanding all of this chaos, is to realize just how overcrowded California prisons are. People end up only serving days per a month sentence for non-violent crimes.
I live in the U.S. and it isn’t, legally speaking, working at all.
You see, Lindsay is white, famous and has friends with money. Here in the US there are special laws for that type of person.
Fabgrrl No.
Lindsey doesn’t have friends with money. She has “friends” and I use that term loosely, that give her drugs and private jets. Cash seems unlikely. And though there is definitely special treatment for those rich, white, famous girls the treatment Lindsey is receiving is absurd. For whatever reason she never gets punished and all are baffled as to how she gets away with it.
That statement “Because, of course” is often written here and that is the best way to sum it up.
I’m the same, being outside the US & totally confused by this mess of legal wrangling. I’m pretty sure where I am, anyone skipping out on a court ordered rehabilitation sentence would immediately be issued a bench warrant & once in police custody would be sent to a remand centre to await a new court hearing. A remand centre is a prison basically, & there would be no bail, until a hearing.
I just don’t understand how LL is able to pretty much do whatever pleases her & the court system basically enables her behaviour.
I have read here on CB, plenty of comments to prove that people in the US are just as baffled & frustrated by her unending cycle of ‘special’ treatment by the Californian courts, & the hope that justice will prevail to get her off the streets & serve her the punishment & rehabilitation that she deserves. Yet she continues to get away with her cracked out dangerous (to herself & others) behaviour. Is the cult of fame really so powerful that LL (or any other person with some claim to celebrity) can be afforded such treatment? Can the overcrowding in Californian jails really be such a problem that a repeat offender can escape any real punishment? I just don’t get it.
I’m not trying to be factious or trying to put down the American legal system, I honestly just don’t understand it & would appreciate an explanation. Though I have the feeling that the majority of American people are just as confused as I am as to why this woman keeps escaping any form of real consequences for her actions as I am.
The over-crowding in California prisons is SO BAD that they’ve let out murderer, man-slaughterers, and violent rapists. (Due to civil rights lawsuits, which apparently scare the pants off them.) So rather than keep the most violent offenders incarcerated in the more crowded maximum security facilities, they let them go free or transfer them to lesser-secure facilities.
But by ALL MEANS, keep the recreational weed smokers in jail and the famous and semi-famous out of jail at all costs!
:p pppppppppffffffffffffffffffffffffffffftttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!
We have for-profit jails in this country. And the people who own them lobby for every little itty bitty drug offense (like smoking pot on the weekends) to merit serious jail time. Then they get paid by the state for each prisoner. Then they let prisoners out as soon as they possibly can. Also, every state has a different system, and California lets celebrities get away with murder. You can bet that if all this went down in New York, things would look very different.
Lohan seems to push it farther than most in the blatant disrespect angle, though. That’s not normally something judges put up with, no matter the state. When I saw that her attorney was interrupting the judge yesterday, and the judge didn’t care, I was astounded. Normally both the lawyer and his client would pay for that. There does seem to be something else going on here — Lindsay or her family know where someone’s bodies are buried.
EMILY SPEAKS THE TRUTH!!!
Privatization of the prison system has completely corrupted justice. They said it was going to make things cheaper, when actually it is MORE expensive and results in more inmates.
Maybe LA judges are more laid back about interruptions. Back when Paris Hilton was in front of the judge that managed to put her in jail for three weeks and make it stick, even dragging her out of the sheriff’s house arrest to do it, her mother was so outrageously mouthy and disrespectful that I was sure she’d be hit with contempt of court. But she wasn’t. Also Paris outright lied to the judge without getting perjury charges. I think she was denying knowing her license was suspended when the cop who caught her earlier (before her more recent reckless driving adventure) had her sign a doc saying she understood she was not allowed to drive and after just a warning, sent her home in the passenger seat while her passenger drove. So they’re pretty mellow compared to judges elsewhere.
Is privatization the reason Sheriff Baca gets to decide when inmates are released? Does the sheriff’s office have no one they justify their decisions to?
LadyD – Some Chiefs of Sheriffs are elected; others are appointed. I’m not certain, but elections happen less frequently than appointments, so maybe they just don’t give a fig.
I don’t know what the heck is going on with the LASD, but they let a murderer go free less than 24 hours ago – OOPS! – and the DA is promising that mistake won’t be happening again. (So there’s that, I guess.)
The LAPD & LASD are notorious for being corrupt, racist, and claiming they’re trying to “repair their reputation” whilst failing to do so. (Don’t get me wrong: I’m sure there are honest men and women out there trying their best to do their jobs with integrity. But there are still plenty who are not.)
I won’t hold my breath. Gosh, this woman and the legal system…
what makes this worse is that LL waited until the last minute to pull this crap. The judge should take into consideration that she had a few months to square away her rehab details, but was jetsetting around the globe partying in south america, etc.
They should throw her in Jail for a bit, AND then make her do the 90 days of rehab after (no concurrently)..
Could Shawn be that stupid?! If so Cracken will be out in a few hours. Well I’ll just sent a quick prayer to the universe that when Lilo finally kicks it she doesn’t take anyone innocent with her.
Her antics are beyond ridiculous. At this point, it’s amazing that anyone has any patience left.
If she had just gone to jail, she would’ve been out by now for overcrowding.
I know huh! If she is not a addict (according to herself) then just get it over with and go to jail for a couple of days. Lets see what shenanigans she gets herself into in rehab this time. Damn she is exhausting. •_•
Please arrest her and throw her ass in jail. Please, please, please! It will be my birthday AND xmas present!
Betty Ford, nah. This time it’s jail and I say that with confidence. They are so through with her. Stick a fork in her, she’s done.
I just read on TMZ she is at Betty Ford.She got there late last night.I live very close to BFC,I think I will have to hang out at the local bar’s to see if I can find Lindsay.
If you do see her, try to take apic secrectly. But if she looks up at you, run….
Lol.We are on hi alert here.let all of you know what’s going on.I really do not live that far from BFC.I don’t think anyone should put them down.It is a good program and wonderful people there.Lindsay’s problem will be the spiritual classes.She will just draw a blank on that.The 12 step’s aren’t for everyone and I think she is one of those.I think she has behavior problem’s
with some mental issue’s.She need’s to be treated for those.Right now I am sure is what they call the Bubble.She is in detox.What happen’s after that is anyone’s guess.She already got away with stuff here but they will kick her out if she test’s dirty.Then she will go to jail.
I have a feeling the end is near for her. I think she might go on a huge bender before going to rehab and end up dead. It is sad that she has no one in her life steering her in the right way. Her parents are awful people. It really is sad.
I hope not. I really want her to be old and tired and fried, living in a janky old trailer, wearing an oxygen mask and eating cat food and ramen with her nasty mother.
If she dies now think of all the books and movies they’ll make and all the royalties her folks will make.
This makes me LOL! 😀 I can so picture that! Bahahahaha!
i love you judyjudy
Cat food and ramen!
*Dead* 😀
I don’t even care anymore if she dies; I just hope she does it without hurting anybody else. Statistically speaking, she’s just as likely, if not more than likely, to hit someone else when she’s driving around on one of her benders than she is to hurt herself.
There comes a point in life where you just can’t blame your bad parents and your sad upbringing for your failings anymore. This is true no matter what situation you are in life. It’s even more true when you’re a formerly rich celebrity who had chance after chance after chance handed to you on a diamond platter, and you had multiple concerned people trying to help you, and access to some of the best rehabs out there. Lohan likes being like this and she enjoys getting away with it, and will never voluntarily change.
Don’t you hate it when the drunk or impaired driver walks away from a horrific crash with barely a scratch, but has killed someone or several people? That seems like how it goes down in MOST cases.
@duncecap – And it always does seem to happen that way, doesn’t it? Just recently we had a case here in MD where this guy was hit by a drunk driver as he was standing on the sidewalk in front of his place of business (Baltimore City Hall!) – he just went outside at lunchtime to enjoy a few minutes of sunshine and some asshole ran him over and killed him. The other guy was okay, of course!
I think I’m going to start living with a new attitude. I’m going to assume if I want something, everyone will bend over backwards to give it to me. If something doesn’t go my way, I’m going to whine and make it go my way. And though I’ve never been involved in the legal system, if I am I’m going to tell the judge and prosecutor exactly what I want, when I want it and how they’re going to get it for me.
In other words I’m gonna live like el Cracko.
I’m with you Shauna. I’ll walk into Starbucks on my way to work and save “Give me the biggest vanilla latte you got and throw in a muffin”. Pay you? Whaddya mean pay you? Don’t you know who I am? Move that latte I’m OhMyMy!
Living La Vida Cracken, that’s the ticket. Let’s all try it.
Too funny
You know Lindsay was checking with TMZ throughout this mess, and when she heard about Morningside’s license being revoked…CRACKIE SCORE!! I’m going shopping and on an absolute manic tear! ROFLOLOL it doesn’t get much better than this.
I’m torn! On the one hand I would hate to see her go away for any length of time, how would I get my daily crackie updates? Who would I turn my snark to? On the other hand I wonder how can she get away with all of this stuff? Who is she blowing? If I was a DA I would be foaming at the mouth to teach this crackvoiced pig a lesson, yet they continue to let her walk all over them. Maybe a public flogging or something like that so cracklips can stay in the news? I’m torn!
It’s Lindsay’s cracked out world and we’re all just living in It.
I’d like to see a photo of her on the ground in handcuffs with a cops knee on her head like we would see if anyone else on the entire planet pulled this kind of stunt.
I’m so sick of this idiot. For the last 6 years, she’s gotten away with every law she’s broken and made a complete mockery of the legal system in this country. LOCK HER UP ALREADY!
First of all, this constant “90 days” in jail thing can’t be right. She’d get 90 JUST for yesterday’s violation. Top that off with the violation on the jewelry case she got when she pled no contest in the lying to Cops case, plus the punishment for that lying to cops crime, and she is looking at WAY more than 90 days in the clink. She took the 90 days IN REHAB as an alternative to a longer jail sentence…and now that sentence would presumably be even longer.
Or am I more delusional than LoBlo herself?
No, you’re right. Wasn’t it like 260 days jailtime in total? She got off with just 90 days of Betty Ford. Insane.
No, Cool, you’re not. It was something like 265 days in jail (too lazy to look it up this early) OR 90 days in rehab. Blohan took the 90 days in rehab.
If this woman hasn’t managed to die within the next year, I will truly be shocked.
I was thinking the same thing
I say let her run the streets. It’s obvious that she doesn’t care and that the judicial system doesn’t care.
Jail would probably be the best thing for her, but since that’s not going to happen, I just say turn her loose.
I saw pics of Crackie shopping yesterday with NEW enablers.
she was looking “stickyfingered and as always, shifty and dirty.”
her crazy mama has been awlfully quiet
She needs to do some time. Some serious Jean Valjean loaf of bread time.
Loaf of bread time…awesome…
Look down, look down…don’t look them in the eye….
This is insanity. THROW HER IN JAIL ALREADY!!!!!
THROW HER ASS IN JAIL FOR 3 MONTHS!
I used to roll my eyes at this chica but now I’m mad. She’s been given chance after chance on top of chance and she just throws it away. How does she manage it? How many people get screwed in the California Justice–screw that “Legal System” and this walking tornado of fail, coke, and poor choices is still doing her thing?
I wasn’t calling for Paris Hilton to be put in jail but Lindsay needs to be put under the jail. This judge needs to get some testicular fortitude, throw the walking biohazard in jail for the full 90 days or if she can’t hack it, a mental health facility.
Supposedly fear is the beginning of wisdom and she has neither.
Oh geez-why do people think still think she’s ever going to jail? I mean, for an actual sentence-being sprung after 90 minutes because of overcrowding doesn’t count. I don’t know why she’s so pissed at her lawyer-despite his in competence, he’s still managed to get her LOTS of publicity and she’s still doing whatever the hell she wants and for no money too.
This is a sad story. She is a mess and her parents are responsible. Lindsay is too stupid to help herself and she will never recover. Sad.
Sorry Lemon,
Her parents are despicable but she is well past the age of being responsible for herself!
Lindsay IS a a gown adult. I sick of people still blaming her parents. So what, she had a crappy childhood. A lot of people do.
LL is the ONLY person to blame. She’s almost 27.
Lemon, I completely agree. My Dad was a hardcore addict and in and out of prison my entire childhood. ENTIRE childhood. The only thing that got through to him was locking him away for years. It’s really sad to see someone go down this road. I can’t ever imagine taking glee or wishing death on anyone in this situation.
She is in Betty Ford and they are going to do nothing to her. Shawn Holley is back. She came up smelling like roses. Again. Even when she fuc*s up there, and she will, nothing will happen.
Well I can’t say I’m surprised at Lohan. I am surprised at Shawn – I guess I thought for some reason that she was better than circus-style business dealings.
Other thoughts are:
1. How can Shawn do anything if she is not officially representing Lohan and hasn’t dice January.
2. Why are these judges so ridiculous?
And…
Lohan clearly has the BEST PR team in the world! (Sarcasm). What are they thinking? I can’t believe they think that any of her decisions over the past year are in her best interest and are clearly enabling her every move.
Ever heard of crisis or reputation management? If Lohan wants to try to resurrect her “career” (her words… I don’t think she has an ounce of talent for – or interest in – “real” acting) then she’s going about it in the worst way possible.
I say good riddance and don’t let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya!
http://www.tmz.com/2013/05/03/lindsay-lohan-betty-ford-rehab-arrest-warrant/
TMZ who broke the story you say Lindsay rehired SHC…. puleeeeze SHC took her back- big difference. I guess Shaun just needed a respite from LILO & now she ready to come out fighting for her again. I hope for SHC it’s like one of those bad relationships where you make that mistake of letting the person back in & 2 minutes don’t go by & you know in your knower it was the wrong thing to do.
She’s just a little bosy. She likes it how she likes it, when she likes it, and that’s how it is.
Don’t tell her no.
Tick tock…. Never ending saga! I have lost all respect for Shawm Holly! Lilo does what she wants, when she wants, period! There is no point to any of this.
Why does this child continue to be able to get away with everything? She basically tells people what she wants to happen and it’s allowed. Karma, where are you?
I have no idea, but if people still think of her as a “child” when she is almost 27 years old, that could have something to do with it.
I call her child because she acts like one. I know she’s an adult and wish the judicial system would treat her like one.
You’re right about that. She sure does act like a childish little brat. It’s worked for her all her life, so…why start behaving herself now?
I don’t even have the energy to hate Lohan any more…but I am FURIOUS at the legal system. Lohan will get by with anything they let her get by with…none of this would be possible without the complicity of judges, DAs, etc. Turn your ire to the public officials- whose salaries YOU PAY- who have allowed this POS to thrive.
Absolutely right, Quinn. Californians ought to be having a collective fit at all the resources, time & money she sucks out of the legal system—for everything to stay exactly the same.
I know I keep saying this, but at the very least, why does she still have a driver’s license?
I don’t think all her problems are due to drugs, I think she’s just an asshole. Throw her in jail.
+1
you can send an addict to rehab…and they may get better…
you can throw an offender in jail… and they may learn from their mistakes…
but sadly… throw a Craken asshole in rehab or jail and she will simply come out of it an even bigger asshole!
Agreed. There have been people in Hollywood and in real life who have struggled with substance abuse and I have sympathized with them because under the drugs I could see some good. But I think Lilo is just a shi**y person drugs or no drugs
The 36th trip to rehab is the charm.
This is ridiculous. There are no words. She basically threw a toddler temper tantrum all day yesterday and then eventually got her way. She should definitely be in jail at this point. And I am back to despising her.
“The Teflon Cracken”
I choked on my coffee 😀
I just came from reading an article where they think 133,000 kids under 5 died of famine in 2011 in Somalia and it p*sses me off (understatement) people like this get every chance in the world while others can’t even get enough food to live past the age of 5. And don’t start me on Beyonce’s $900 titanium straws. Grotesque resource-sucking people.
So what dirt did Lohan/White Oprah get on Shawn to get her to take Lohan back as a client? Because, seriously.
A few years back (I’m thinking it was around 2007, right when she first started getting into trouble), I was listening to the radio on my way home from work, and they started doing the celebrity gossip. The main story was how a former bodyguard of Lindsay Lohan’s openly said that if someone didn’t help her, she would be dead before she was thirty with the way she partied and lived. At the time, I rolled my eyes and called it “sensationalism”, but I think about that story every time I read about her pulling these shenanigans.
i heard in the news that an American was sentenced to 15-years hard labor in North Korea, because he sneaked into the country often to feed orphans. is it possible to do a prisoner’s exchange? will North Korea even want to take her?
Considering that by “fifteen years”, N Korea means “life sentence”, I cosign your idea.
Look at Drew Barrymore – now there was a deck to be dealt with …same for Brooke Shields, and look how they turned out? So although harder, this ‘bad parents’ excuse has proven to be not enough to excuse such awful behavior. She has become a sociopath and is such an unchecked narcissist that she will do nothing to improve herself. She is the perpetual victim. She never got sick of herself being a joke… instead, has just found ways to push the envelope. And this is why no one has anymore empathy for her.
Drew had that moment, and turned her life around.
Brooke Shields empowered herself and took control of her life.
Lindsay is another sad story of a child star headed for death. Too bad she doesn’t love herself enough to put on the breaks.
These days, I only blame Lindsay’s parents for the perfect storm of awful-person DNA they provided to create The Cracken.
Lindsay’s a monster in her own right. The bad parenting didn’t help, I’m sure, but it was never the whole problem.
she checks in and outa rehab the way I shop at Target.
Lindsey doesn’t think she has a problem. That’s her problem. Rehab or jail, it doesn’t matter, neither will help until Lindsey learns how to take control of herself and her life instead of medicating herself with whatever she can find to cope with herself and her shell of a life. Anyone who enables her self-destructive behaviour is enabling her descent to Erin Moran levels of obscurity and sadness of life.
So, I’m guessing that Shawn Holley made an agreement with the Betty Ford Center that the Cracken isn’t subject to the same rules and regulations as the other patients. She’s going to treat this as just another spa vacation.
Blohan will probably still get day passes for shopping, Starbucks and trips to the hair dresser. She just won’t be able to make extra money by calling the paps and selling the photos.
I’m anxious to see how long she lasts in rehab. I give it a week and she bolts.
I don’t know who’s paying or how much, but Betty Ford just lost more credibility than any amount of money can buy.
THIS
Betty Ford is incredibly expensive, but it worked for a family member when nothing else did so I give it high marks. But it takes time, and preferably includes family members in regular group therapy sessions. I doubt LL will stay long enough, and her family (parents) probably need an extended stay in rehab as well. It also takes a commitment to changing your environment once you leave so the old temptations, friends, etc. don’t drag you down. In other words, I doubt this will be any different than all the other times, but I wish her the best of luck. She’s going to need it.
She already been to Betty Ford and they let her do what ever she wanted.
It’s not the place but the person if your dedicated to getting help then the treatment will work. if your not dedicated then no matter how great the rehab facilities is, its not going to change a thing.
Maybe they would give a group rate for a family of addicts like them. Now, Dina, Michael and Lindsay in a lockdown rehab together I would love to see as a reality show. Reality TV gold. I am surprised Dr. Drew didn’t think of it.
She’s Been there…Done That…Escaped from the sober living house. Maybe this time they have a “lock down” facility, I personally don’t see how the program (allegedly based on the AA 12 step program) has changed since she was last there. Maybe they will make one tailored made to her “terminally unique” illness. Did they allow her to take Adderal the last time she was there? I kind of thought they taught complete abstinence in their program from people I know who have gone there.
Lindsay cannot stand her current lawyer and thinks he doesn’t know what he is doing.
For once, The Cracken has grasped reality.
He seemed nutty, but didn’t know what he was doing? I don’t know. He still managed to negotiate a deal where she could go to an unlicensed facility in CA where she could smoke and probably shoot up too. So he couldn’t be that incompetent.
Then again, it seems that no matter who represents or doesn’t represent Lindsay, she always gets off. I swear she could walk up to somebody and shoot them point-blank in full view of twenty cameras, and still get off with community service or something.
He was disbarred in New York a few years ago. Apparently he’s so dreadful the prosecutors there used to, out of pity, quietly tell the man’s clients that they might want to get a better lawyer.
I think Heller’s willing to be unethical, and that’s why he was of value to The Cracken. He ambushed the prosecution with a change of rehab, then spin-doctored the situation such that the judge said, “Well, it might be okay, so fine for now, until the prosecution has a chance to investigate.”
But the new rehab was pretty clearly not one that would have ever been acceptable. Heller was trying to pull a fast one–which is perfect, because that’s exactly what Lindsay was trying to do too. They’re a good fit for each other–both have zero integrity and zero shame.
Yes, it does look like that. Apparently she can’t do anything bad enough to get her the same treatment an ordinary person would get, i.e. a real prison sentence. Robert Downey Jr. was sent to prison, not county jail—prison—for a year & he hadn’t pulled half of Lindsay’s skullduggery.
To me, it says everything that no judge has even suspended her driver’s license. That’s the least they could do. What did that last judge do—“suggest that she not drive”? Hahaha!
People don’t get “suggestions” not to drive in the real law enforcement world—they lose their driver’s licenses. The entire thing is mind-boggling.
“both have zero integrity and zero shame ”
^^THIS^^
I mean setting aside the dishonesty of her necklace theft, I would be utterly mortified if I had to appear in public after that stunt and subsequent publicity. Not our ‘lil crackie’ She gets photographed wearing it and still denies it. Then there is the smearing of innocent victims. Absolutely zero shame and it seems to be paying off for her.
He wasn’t licensed to practice law in California – something he seemed prepared to ignore but apparently the legal system there frowns upon that (even if they’re OK with cracknanigans like hitting a baby in a stroller with your car…).
He’s really kind of an idiot from what I understand. A friend of mine from law school who now lives in NYC has dealt with him in the past, and has NOTHING nice to say about this guy.
I want to know what conditions have to be present on order to get to choose rehab over jail? I mean none of the reasons she was arrested are for drugs so why does she get to decide to go to rehab? Can anyone who is arrested demand rehab over jail and even get to pick when they will go? This is what is baffling to me.
The police had evidence she had been drinking, but because Lindsay claimed she wasn’t driving, they didn’t give her a breathalyzer.
Then it turned out she had been driving, hence her conviction for lying to police.
And the rehab was because alcohol had been a factor in the accident–although the authorities didn’t realize it until later.
If she was clean (drugs) would it make her a better person? She’s disgustingly spoiled and entitled without legit acting work behind it. Also, she looks filthy in terms of hygiene.
Why not call Jupiter Neptune and the ground the sky. Linzo was assigned to a certain rehab center as a plea bargain deal to avoid jail a real treat from the justice system for her. Lindsay has no intention of reforming herself as she attempts to shop around along with her shady lawyer for a rehab center that is less serious and will let her do her stuff that puts her in the state of where she is now. How much longer will Lindsay continue this cycle? This cycle has been going on for nearly ten years, more arrests and threat of arrest, more court room appearances, more personal debt, more unprofessional behavior on set and more drinking, drugs, chain smoking and hard parting. It is stupid how Lindsay just does what ever she wants in the justice system with impunity and some kid who made the mistake of holding pot get turned into a hardened criminal who will never be hirable. We know the law will tolerate Lindsays shenanigans and so will any BOTB production company who hires her but how long will Lindsays body tolerate
Lindsays shenanigans?
Comeback? From what? She was a teenager with a pretty face and big tits. 2 of the 3 are gone forever. She can’t act her way out of a paper bag. That performance on Letterman didn’t convince anyone.
Her acting has been bad for years now. There is no comeback.
I think that no possible comeback is part of the problem. So she gets clean. What then? She’s too famous to get un-famous and she’s too bad a bet to really work in Hollywood. So that’s it, ride’s over. Now it’s just a waiting game.
But regardless, I want to see a judge throw the book at her. She needs to lose her license and go to jail before she kills someone.
Reese’s reaction..”Do you know who I am?”….seems something like Lindsay would pull…she’s used to getting away with everything…
And Lindsay is in charge of the proceedings ~again~!
When is she not running the show? My eyes are still popping out of my head that Shawn Holley & Betty Ford would have her back! Shawn Holley is working for Lindsay for free, & Betty Ford is taking back a client who assaulted one of their staff?!
There is some kind of voodoo at work here that the rest of the world doesn’t know about.
The latest from Lainey is Morningside offered to pay Lindsay $30,000 to get treatment at their facility. When Linds showed up on their doorstep on Thursday, they didn’t come through with the cash so she left.
Betty Ford has offered to let Lindsay stay at their center for FREE, and that’s why she’s there now. Apparently, Betty Ford wanted a second chance with Linds, after they had done so badly with her the first time around.
Showbiz411 has more details:

“Apparently, Betty Ford wanted a second chance with Linds, after they had done so badly with her the first time around.” If this is true, then they are enabling her also and should get out of the business. It is not BF that failed, it is Lindsay who refused to be serious about her rehab. They are not going to do any better this time because Lindsay still doesn’t think she has a problem.
Wow I didn’t know that.She is a piece of work that one.
She is a very sick young woman. I hope truly that she will get the help she needs, somehow.
Does anybody really believe that her New York lawyer recommended Morningside to her? Lindsay is the one who knew all about Morningside, he was setting up the New York rehab. She just wanted a place where she could sun herself on the beach and go shopping and visit Disneyland. She’s been telling everybody that will listen that she doesn’t need rehab, so she’s hardly expecting to actually, you know, rehabilitate herself. Several years ago, a judge (the one Lindsay flashed her FU fingernail at) was thinking of sending the lass to Morningside for 90 days (when it was still a licensed residential rehab) but she ended up at UCLA instead for rehab and mental evaluation. (UCLA pushed her into outpatient after only a month, and two weeks later the lass tested positive for cocaine.)
Were there any other California rehabs on the list already approved by the DA’s office? I thought the whole idea was for her to do rehab and community service in the New York area since her family is there. She doesn’t even have a place to live in California.
Lindsay is now so famous for her crackie antics that being compared to her is an insult! The Huff Post headline I just read (I’m in Europe) reads:
“Charges Loom for JP Morgan The ‘Linday Lohan of Banks'”. I wonder who will be angrier at this: The Blohan or Jamie Dimon?
We should have one of those ‘baby pool’ type things going …
“How long will The Cracken stay at Betty Ford?”
Place your bets ladies & gents!
Me, I’m saying 4 days before she does a runner.
I say a couple of week’s because right now she is in detox and giving her medication.When she move’s to her dorm and start’s dealing with her issue’s that’s when she’ll bolt.
You guys have to read this interview Piers Morgan just did with Lindsay. It will blow your mind.

She’s just serving up the same old warmed up chunks of nonsense.
Yup, we believe you, Linds….totally.
I read it this morning and recommended it.I just didn’t know how to post it.Pretty crazy.She drink’s but she is not a drinker.She take’s pill’s but she is not a pill head.She has been in rehab but doesn’t need it.It is a must read.
“pot, obviously” bahaha
i’m not quite sure how paris ended up in jail when the cracken seems to evade it over and over. but by comparison, paris took it like a mensch.
EVERYTHING in this girls life has went so wrong! Such a shame. I hope one day she stands proud free of drugs and booze!
Ridiculous La Lohan is angry and bitter. She is extremely pissed off at her parents and is taking it out on herself and acting it out. The world around her doesnt make any sense and she can;t trust anyone and hates everyone and everything- you can even see it etched on her face now– she has perma-scowl and that frown line is getting deeper and she cant even force a friendly face– she just looks more and more chaotic and venomous not matter what she tries to say.
Hell I;’d even believe it if rehab IS “pointless” for her becuase she doesn’t even drink.use that much— seems more likely to me she simply has extreme feelings and issues pent up inside, with no structure and no inhibition— just lots of money and lots of yes people/pests.
