In less than two weeks, actress Lindsay Lohan will trade her designer tops and chic legging for a short-sleeved prison jumpsuit as she begins a 90-day stint at the Century Regional Detention Facility in California. "[Lohan's] stay there will be unpleasent enough that she won't forget it," says Steve Cron, a criminal defense attorney in Santa Monica California. "The point is to say , "You better take this seriously, and if you don't , you are going to going back and forth to jail."
According to Cron, Lindsey's new accommadations will be vastly different from her Hollywood apartment. She'll be staying in a 12-by-8 foot room with a bunk, table, sink, toliet and a small window.
"Because of her celebrity status, she will have her own cell," Corn said. "That's not to say she's being treated better than anybody - it's for her own safety. All celebrities can be victimized in jail by people who want street cred for beating up someone who is famous. Lohan may have her own cell, but she won't have much by way of everyday amenities . "There are no television inside the cells, and inmates can't have make-up,"Cron said.Not that it's a facility in which your looks are of importance anyway. In fact, you may want to look a little less attractive when you are in jail."
Her lawyer can have access to her seven days a week, but others can only visit her once a week, and even then, the interaction will be limited: "She'll be behind glass talking through a phone so [guards] don't have to worry about security or someone giving her something."
Lohan will be permitted to go outside her cell one hour a day to exercise and be outdoors, weather permitting.
While Lohan's life behind bars might not be glamorous, she can at least rest easy knowing she probably won't have to serve the entire 90-days, Cron noted. "The rule is that they can't keep you for more than two-thirds of the time, as long as you get credit for good behavior," he said.
Instead of taking a vacation after she's released , Lohan will go straight to rehab where she'll spend 90 days at an in-patient addiction treatment center.
"This is a girl who shows signs of an addictive personality."Brenner said."She hasn't taken any of this seriously, and if she don't do that,[treatment's] not going to work. The whole thing is about changing your actions, your behavior, your friends and your out-look.
My spin : When you are medicating your life with drugs, your outlook becomes distorted. Maybe after jail Lindsey's attitude will change. If it doesen't. Lindsey Lohan is in trouble...but we hope the best for her and now it's up to Lindsey to go down the right path.
Kicking back keeping it real and telling it like it is.... oh yes, and having fun.
