EXCLUSIVE: Prosecutor Tells Radar She'll Seek To Jail Lindsay Up To 180 Days If Probation Violated
Posted on May 19, 2010 @ 07:08AM
Deputy District Attorney Danette Meyers tells RadarOnline.com that she will seek to jail Lindsay Lohan for up to 180 days if the actress has violated her DUI probation.
Meyers statement shows how serious Lohan’s situation has become, with the actress skipping her alcohol education class some weeks and the judge handling the case ordering her to court on Thursday.

Meyers, who has been handling Lindsay's case since her 2007 arrest, had strong words about jail time Lindsay will be facing if the judge finds she violated her probation terms.
The Deputy District Attorney told RadarOnline.com: "Any failure to abide by the court order, any failure to abide by what the alcohol education program dictates, or excessive alcohol use, and I will be asking for jail time if the judge feels it constitutes a violation of probation.”

Meyers points out that the judge will ultimately determine Lindsay’s fate but the D.A. will get to make a sentence recommendation. Meyers also tells us that if Lindsay has been found to have been "using illegal drugs or lying to the court, I will be asking for substantial jail time ranging from 0-180 days."

One source says a sentence of 30 to 45 days is more likely to be handed to Lohan if the judge determines she violated probation. And with jail overcrowding a factor, Lindsay is unlikely to serve even close to that much time.

I thought if you are on probation you had to stay in the area so the department of corrections can keep tabs on you.....How can she travel all over the world?

Trouble is jails are crowded here in L.A. and even if jailed she will be out far too soon and the message will be lost. She needs to be held until her July hearing relating to her violation of probabation. Cuffed and put in the court room.

Even if she is found guilty of a probation violation I bet she spends 3 mins in jail, after all we know how the rich and privileged never get what they deserve when it comes to breaking the law.

I'm surprised her mom isn't doing something about her daughters health. In all of these photos, for months now, Lindsey has looked positively ghoulish. She looks sick and pasty in every photo. Always in black

and Lindsay has done nothing to me personally for me to hate on her. She's had a difficult childhood because of her father, why would I want to attack her for some bad choice she has made in her own life.
