Lindsay Lohan Sentenced to 120 Days in Jail

Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to 120 days in county jail on Friday for violating her probation, TMZ.com reports. She was taken directly from the courtroom to the courthouse for booking.
After reducing
Lindsay Lohan's grand theft case from a felony to a misdemeanor following a day of testimony over a reported stolen necklace, Judge Stephanie Sautner determined the actress violated her probation from a 2007 DUI arrest and was sentenced to jail. She was also ordered to complete 480 hours of community service.
Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Holley, immediately filed a notice of appeal and bail was set at $75,000.
As for the case, Judge Sautner decided not to dismiss it altogether but said "I'm going to give her an opportunity" to prove her innocence in a trial.
Deputy District Attorney Danette Meyers called four witnesses to make her case that Lohan should be tried for a felony, including the owner of the store where Lohan is accused of theft.
The actress turned down a pair of plea bargain offers in the necklace theft case recently.
Sofia Kaman, the owner of Kamofie & Co., testified on Friday that Lohan stole a $2,500 necklace from her store on Jan. 22. She told Judge Sautner that Lohan had been coming into the store all week to look at items, but never bought anything. She waited to report the necklace stolen because the actress had said she'd be back in a day to buy something else.
After a police report was filed, authorities reportedly waited until she was photographed wearing the necklace before deciding to pursue charges. A friend of the actress turned the necklace in to the Pacific Division of the LAPD on Feb. 2.
Lohan claims that the necklace was loaned to her -- and that her stylist simply forgot to return it in time. Kaman says she did not have any agreement with Lohan allowing her to leave the store with the necklace.
Lohan's lawyer Shawn Holley and Kaman got testy at times during the hearing. At one point, Holley noted that Lohan was baring a lot of cleavage that day and questioned why Kaman didn't notice the necklace dangling above it.
"I wasn't looking at her chest," Kaman said. "I was looking at her face."
At another point, Holley accused Kaman of profiting off the incident. "Celebrity sells right?" she asked the store owner, according to
TMZ. She reportedly replied, "It can." Kaman also denied selling a surveillance tape that was later released.
Judge Sautner warned both Kaman and Holley to be more respectful.
Lohan was officially charged during a hearing on Feb. 9. After pleading not guilty, Judge Keith Schwartz lanced into the actress for not taking the charges seriously. "If you violate the law again, I will remand you with no bail," he told her. "Things will be different."
The actress, who remains on probation in a 2007 drunken driving case, is accused of taking the necklace roughly three weeks after she was released from three months of court-ordered rehab at the Betty Ford Center.
The judge who initially handled the necklace theft case has said he thinks Lohan violated the terms of her release, but has assigned the preliminary hearing to Judge Sautner, who could send Lohan to jail after Friday's hearing if she determines there is enough evidence to support the probation violation.

Lindsay is a leach on society and should be tried for the felony case and independent of the probation violation. She should be in Jail on the probation violation for a period of not less tahn 6 month.
Oh yes, cant wait for her next movie.She had that Mean Girls back in the 1990's. She has done nothing since but be in and out of jail and rehab. What makes you think this loser will ever have another movie?
You my friend are brain damaged.
Can't wait for her next movie? Why not just sit in front of the tube and watch cartoons? It's less expensive and the acting is better.
SHANE...
let me guess....you're a family member, right?
Get better heroes. Sticky Fingers Lohan has nothing special to offer you...and that definitely includes a decent movie anytime soon.
ONLY 120 DAYS, THE DOUCHE DESERVES YEARS.
I don't know who you are, but I'm sick of Lindsay getting away with breaking the law. She needs to be held accountable for everything just like any other "NO BODY" does in this world! It's our tax money that pays the courts with this crap. If she was held accountable for her actions, she wouldn't be doing it!
Lindsay needs to read my book while she is in prison: "SOS Safely Obtaining Sobriety" by George Legacy.
You're the kind of enabling persons who make people like Lohan spiral out of control. She is a sick, sick girl. I've seen otherwise innocent people wind up dead from her addiction.
YOUR A BIGGER IDIOT THAN HER
I watched the video of lindsay in the store....the store owner/clerk knew she had it on ....How could she just let her walk out with it...She was there the whole time....lindsay should be only charged for her parole violation...not stealing....
People can change their life. Hopefully, she will also. She is just a young gal. I wish her luck...

i'm sure she can and will change,but she needs to spend time[not 6 days,like 6 months]behind bars and wake up. and what kind of a role model actress gets locked up for drugs,dui and theft,if that was me,i'd see daylight after 6-12 months,if not more. you do the crime,you do the time,celeb or not!
I also wish her well, but she's unlikely to change until she is forced to face her problems and is actually punished for something.
Ok, she can use that excuse with 15 or 16 but when you turn 18 you are an adult and with 21 you can drink, she is way over both so she needs to pay up!!!! I am soooo sick and tired of all those idiots getting treated better then everybody else, any one of us regular ppl would be gone for a long time!!! And Jamie, you really need to go back to school!!!!
They have to want to and SHE DOES NOT WANT TO CHANGE. She needs to spend some time in jail where she belongs to think about her life and maybe she will wake up.
I agree with the other posters who say L.L will not change until she is truly held accountable for her bad behavior. This narcissistic brat wont learn until she really gets punished.
Why do the courts cater to this useless form of life,try her and put her away for several years so that she understands the seriousness of her (STUPID)actions. They will cut her a break and go back to doing the wrong things. (JAIL HER)

O.J. KILLED TWO PEOPLE AND HE DID NOT GO TO JAIL FOR THAT.
It was Kim Kardash-abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-ian's father who was one of the attorney's who got him off, too. But the public still is enamored with her no-talent fat-arse!!!! Keep fighting the good fight OJ, you're innocent!! Fight the Power!!
