Over the weekend we heard that Lindsay Lohan was going to “voluntarily” check herself into an inpatient rehab facility after failing two drug tests and being sentenced to 30 days in jail. It’s a good idea even if someone has to drag Lindsay’s orange ass there while she’s kicking, screaming and tweeting. Obviously Dina isn’t going to do that as she’s an enabler of the highest order. Lindsay’s dad Michael has long been advocating for his daughter to get treatment, but he seems to be more interested in the publicity he gets for being a self righteous prick than his daughter’s well being. He’s also a nasty abusive person, as shown by how he treated his last two girlfriends and now Lindsay’s lawyer. Michael admits leaving threatening messages for Lindsay’s lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, after Lindsay was sentenced to jail without bail (which was of course overturned on appeal) but he claims it was about the fact that no one was trying to get Lindsay into rehab.

Lindsay Lohan’s lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, worked miracles running back and forth to court Friday to spring her client from jail, but it wasn’t good enough for Michael Lohan. TMZ has learned daddy Lohan left a voicemail and texts on Holley’s phone, threatening to “blow you out of the water.”

Sources tell us the voicemail — left earlier in the week — also threatened to “dig up dirt” on Shawn, as well as Lindsay’s business manager, Lou Taylor.

Michael left two text messages on Holley’s phone Friday after the court hearing, telling her she should do Lindsay a favor and quit. In another text, Michael claimed Holley and Taylor were destroying the Lohan family.

Michael went nuclear at the Bev Hills Courthouse Friday morning after Judge Elden Fox threw Lindsay in jail. Fox’s decision was reversed later that day after Holley filed an appeal, and Lindsay got out of jail Friday night.

We’re told Holley, who could not be reached for comment, will not seek a restraining order.

It’s just Michael being Michael.

UPDATE: Michael tells TMZ, “It’s true. I said those things … but it’s spun. I wasn’t knocking Shawn for working all those hours … I was knocking the fact that I told them to do this [send Lindsay to rehab] a long time ago. Just now they’re listening.”

If you listen to Michael’s post-sentencing rant to the press (above) he says that it’s not Lindsay’s fault that she’s so messed up, but is everyone else’s fault for “enabling her.” He says at about 2:00 in “I truly believe that she’s finally in a place where she wants to be, but it’s just a few people in her life that keep leading her off that path and enabling her.” Are you kidding me? This is typical of the Lohan family. It’s everyone else’s fault except them and their daughter. Dina and Michael may seem to have a lot of different opinions and they obviously hate each other, but it’s clear that they agree on that point.

There are a lot of comparisons being made between what happened with Britney Spears in 2008 and Lindsay’s latest antics. Fox News has a story speculating on whether Lindsay could be placed under a conservatorship like Britney. They quote an expert who says that Lindsay is in need of a conservator but that she hasn’t quite reached the point where she’s showing “signs that she is incapable of caring for herself” like Britney did. It doesn’t seem like this is going to happen for Lindsay, as dire as her situation seems to us on the outside. Can you imagine if Michael was appointed Lindsay’s conservator? I would actually feel sorry for her.
