Lindsay Lohan faces damning report, sources claim

[HMG Celebrity News] – Everyone’s favorite trainee felon, Lindsay Lohan was in court yesterday for another round of proceedings regarding the alleged theft of a necklace in January. And insiders say the probation department’s report is so damning she has only option – Go directly to jail.

Sources tell TMZ the LA County Probation Department compiled their report just after the jewelry store filed charges, and it supposedly contains undisclosed information about Lohan that is so damaging it could win her a year in state prison.

Lohan’s case is currently being heard by Judge Keith Schwarz, and he’s offered a plea bargain that requires Lohan to serve three months in the L.A. County jail. But if the case goes to trial and the verdict is guilty, Judge Stephanie Sautner would be required to use the report to determine a sentence.

A conviction for probation violation carries at least a one-year sentence. The sentence for felony grand theft is a year in state prison. If convicted Lohan faces both.

As you might guess, her overworked attorney is already in damage control mode;

“Judge Schwartz made it clear the probation violation would be based on the theft allegation and nothing more,” Shawn Holley told the reporters. “If there was information in the Probation Report, wouldn’t the allegations be based on that?”

But the message is not getting home – Just a few hours after Lohan left the Airport Courthouse she was pulled over by the LAPD for running a stop sign. Of course she claims it’s ‘Not so!’

“Just waved down a police officer to help me block a paparazzi,” she tweeted yesterday. “His pictures were not coz I got pulled over. He got punk’d.”

The paparazzo in question, however, disputes Lohan’s typically self-serving version. The officer who made the stop told them Lohan was pulled over for a violation, and not because she called for help.

And they’ve got video that proves it.

This endless saga must rank among the longest court cases in history – and it’s not even started. Do you think Lindsay will take the offer or go for a trial? Let’s hear your opinion on this…
