Lindsay Lohan Likely Facing 30 – 60 Day Sentence

Is Lindsay Lohan double dipping with men(HMG Celebrity News) – In light of her failing two recent drug tests a bench warrant was issued for Lindsay Lohan’s arrest, yesterday. The warrant is issued but on hold until Friday at 8:30 a.m. PST, when Lohan is due back in court, TMZ reports.   She reportedly had cocaine and amphetamines in her system, just days after spending 2 weeks behind bars and 23 days in rehab. Lohan was convicted twice in 2007 of driving under the influence (DUI) and missed a court-mandated substance abuse counseling classes. That’s what prompted a judge to send her back to jail in the first place. On her Twitter page, Lohan admitted the recent failed drug test and said, “This was certainly a setback for me, but I am taking responsibility for my actions and I’m prepared to face the consequences.”

Those consequences could be severe, as most anticipate a 30 day sentence, and CBS News Legal Analyst Jack Ford says Lohan could face a 60-day sentence — 30 days for each failed drug test. Unfortunately Lohan could satisfy both 30-day stretches in about five days each, given the early release program for overcrowding. Will this effect her getting tons of money to be interviewed on Oprah or the Today Show? Probably not. But it could hurt her movie career comeback as getting insurance for her to be on set will now be tougher then ever.
