Nancy Grace Can't Believe Lindsay Lohan Isn't in Jail

Nancy Grace may not be surprised that
Lindsay Lohan isn't behind bars right this second, but that doesn't mean she isn't infuriated by it. The 'Swift Justice' host and no-nonsense prosecutor tells me there's a "two-tier justice system" in place that affords celebs with a whole different set of rules.
"I believe celebrities get into so much trouble because they think the rules don't apply to them," Nancy said. "It think it becomes instinct that they can do, say whatever they want, and there's no repercussions."
The 'Mean Girls' star may actually have bitten off more than she can chew this time, and she's being charged with felony grand theft for allegedly swiping a $2,500 necklace from a jewelry store last month. A couple weeks after taking the necklace, a friend dropped it off at a police station, and Lindsay's dad told me he thought she was loaned the merchandise. Sketchy!
"She's on video! She goes in the store without the necklace. She comes out with the necklace," she said, amazed. "I don't know about you, but when I make a return, it's directly to Target. I usually don't send it to the LAPD!"
Nancy said the fact that Lindsay wasn't immediately "thrown down on the asphalt" outside the store and prosecuted within days of the incident is directly tied to her being a celebrity.
"Let's just say you send a black girl into that same jewelry story, or an educated person or a poor person, they come away with a $2,500 necklace, honey, and they would be thrown down on the asphalt and dragged by their feet back into the store and prosecuted."
If convicted, LiLo could be sent to a California state prison with a maximum sentence of three years behind bars. She's currently on supervised probation for a past drunk driving conviction, and the judge overseeing her case told her in October that she would be sent to jail for 180 days if she violated her probation rules before her next court appearance, which is set for Feb. 25.

Did she actually just say "If you send a black person, or an educated person........" LMAO. Nancy Grace is a pig. But I gotta agree with her on this, Lindsey Lohan must have lube on those hand-cuffs.

lol, I love how you blacks look for the race card. She did say exactly what you said she said, however, the implication meant and desired is totally different than that of your racist card throwing mind. Amazing how simple you are able to do this little color me hurt and condemned notion. Shameful.
if you had listened to the video carefully you would have heard Nancy say "uneducated person."
Nancy Grace and linsay are cut from the same cloth...both are just plain white trailor park trash!!! They should both be in jail..or worse!
L.O.L. and she flips it, she refers black girls are uneducated!
What is this with the "anybody else" bit? It's just easier to go arrest celebrities because they can't escape.
Lindsay may have to do a nude pictorial spread in Playboy to pay her legal fee's ...so she's not all washed-up just yet.

Seriously Kenny - who would want to see nude pictures of this skank?
I am trying to think of a more self-destructive celeb than Lohan. None right now, but Mike Tyson was terrible. Darryl Strawberry. Mel Gibson, but even his ex, Danny Glover and a bunch of his black friends said he’s fine, but if he has one drink, he’ll have 30. Severe alcohol problem. No alcohol, no problems. You’d think he’d figure it out that he can’t drink. Lesser known, but Vinnie Vincent, guitarist for KISS in the early ‘80s was so destructive. Simmons and Stanley said, “You could give that guy a new Rolls Royce and he’d cut his wrists with the keys. The most self-destructive person ever, and he is so talented.” Other than Lohan and her poor excuse for a mom, she is pathetically destructive.
I also can't believe she's not in jail. It's just so obvious that she is and Charlie Sheen are getting Preferential treatment that it's disgusting. Lohan and Charlie can snort coke off the judge's desk during court and the judge will not say anything. Both Lohan and Sheen know this by now. Such a sad situation.

Amen, I couldn't have said it better! Anybody else would be locked up with the key thrown away.
aside from ...yes its true if it were one of us we'd be in jail. but honestly, the best thing that can happen to her is to go to jail. it would be like saving her life actually.
a good 3 years to clean up.

Please, please stop this nonsense of playing the race card for dramatic effect.

You and the other jerk,George, need to clean out your ears! Nobobdy was "playing the race card" Nancy Grace said that basically anybody black,uneducated or poor wouldn't be getting away with this,but LiLo is beacuse she thinks the law doesn't apply to her. You paranoid,angry white people are always seeing people "using the race card" with everything. By the way,since when is Nancy Grace black? Maybe you need to get your eyes checked as well.
This incredible nitwit is going to do a stretch in stir. I hope she hates it. She has thumbed her nose at the public and all authority long enough. It's time for her to realize that the rules DO apply to her.
Nancy is right on.

Lack of appropriate action by the California legal system sets a precedent for all others with similar problems.

I can't believe Nancy Grace is not in jail for pushing suicide onto a helpless, troubled woman. Nancy Grace is a horrible person and I'm looking forward to her disappearing FINALLY from the boob tube.

But instead of her going away sh just gets more and more time on the air. I am so SICK of Nanacy and the way she thinks shes better than anyone. Ugh.
BLAH you mean the woman who killed her baby? Saved us tax dollars for having to lock that botch up in prison for life.
If it was an average person we'd be in jail now!! Everytime she gets into trouble all she gets is a hand slap so why shouldn't she keep doing what she is doing. She needs to do jail time just like anyone else would have to do and stop giving her celebrity status since it hasn't done her any good in the past.

Lindsay should have been arrested immediately and I agree with the statement that celebrities are treated differently. My intro to the "justice system" was a conviction of a crime I didn't do. I went home thinking I had won the case only to get a call from my attorney saying, "You've been convicted." Now, they want me to perform Jury Duty. I will never vote to convict anyone again.
