Lindsay Lohan confessed that she’s addicted to drugs & alcohol. As for jail time, Lohan will serve a grand total of a day!
Lindsay Lohan issued the following statement to TMZ: “It is clear to me that my life has become completely unmanageable because I am addicted to alcohol and drugs.
Recently, I relapsed and did things for which I am ashamed. I broke the law, and today I took responsibility by pleading guilty to the charges in my case. No matter what I said when I was under the influence on the day I was arrested, I am not blaming anyone else for my conduct other than myself. I thank God I did not injure others. I easily could have.
I very much want to be healthy and gain control of my life and career and have asked for medical help in doing so. I am taking these steps to improve my life. Luckily, I am not alone in my daily struggle and I know that people like me have succeeded. Maybe with time it will become easier. I hope so.”
As for jail time, Lohan has 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.” That means a lot of people, no?
So among the three young stars: Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie & Lindsay Lohan; Paris got the worse sentence. Paris probably has learnt her lesson well by serving the longest time though.
Lohan is young & talented, when she gets out of this mess, she’s got everything in front of her. We have faith in you Lindsay.
