We asked if Lindsay Lohan would go to jail on Friday, and now we have the answer: yes. The actress was sentenced to 120 days in the slammer for probation violation after a double hearing in which she faced this and a grand felony theft charge.
It was determined that Lohan violated her probation for getting in trouble with the law, and she was taken off to be booked as soon as her court appearance was finished. But, it wasn’t all bad news when she faced the judge…

Will Lindsay Lohan Go to Jail on Friday?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Where Are They Now?,
UPDATE: Lindsay Lohan has been sentenced to jail.
Lindsay Lohan returns to court Friday for two reasons. When the actress faces the judge, she’ll have two hearings and may be sent straight to jail before the day is through.
Linds will be facing a preliminary hearing in her grand theft case, as well as a hearing to determine whether she’s violated her current probation. If she’s found guilty of probation violation, she could be taken right to the clink.
On the necklace front, the judge will determine whether sufficient evidence exists to give the matter a trial. Judge Stephanie Sautner will allow no cameras in her courtroom during the event, though cameras are already posted outside the building in hopes of catches glimpses of Lindsay walking to and from. We'll bring you all the news from the front lines. Get the headlines faster when you follow VIP Breakdown on Twitter.

Plea Deal Rejected! Lindsay Lohan Will Go to Trial
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Turns out, Lindsay Lohan didn’t need to wait out the judge’s March 25 deadline -- she’s already made her mind up about the plea deal.
And, it’s a no go. Linds made her wishes known on Wednesday by refusing to take jail time, though she would have served approximately 19 days, in favor of taking the case to trial. Lindsay Lohan is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on April 22. This will determine whether or not she should be charged with felony grand theft for allegedly stealing a necklace totaling $2,500.
The ruling could go badly for Lohan. If it is decided that she should stand trial, she could be immediately found guilty of violating her probation -- which will result in jail time anyway. It’ll be Lindsay’s fourth stint in the pokey.

Lindsay Lohan Receives Not-So-Secret Courtroom Deal
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Child Stars, Clothing, Legal Issues, Rumors,
The California legal system is painfully learning the lesson that Lindsay Lohan has faced so many times: she can’t do one damned thing the media doesn’t discover. So it should come as no surprise that details from her highly-secretive legal bargain are leaking out of the courtroom.
Superior Court Judge Keith Schwartz has scheduled an April 22 hearing for Lohan’s grand theft case, but before this she may appear in court one final time to accept the offer he made to her on Thursday. Linds has now formally rejected a plea bargain offered to her, in which she’s been asked to plead guilty to felony theft. He’s giving her until March 25 to change her mind.
The plea would give her a possible 3-month jail stay, which is a lot shorter than the 3-year sentence she’s facing if convicted of felony theft. Linds could also face a penalty for probation violation, as she’s not supposed to get into any legal trouble right now (her being fresh from a different court case, and all).
It doesn’t help that the judge wanted none of the details of the plea bargain made public. The judge asked lawyers on both sides to keep the deets hush-hush, but TMZ (and everybody else) got ahold of them anyway.

VIDEO: Survey Lindsay Lohan Putting on the Stolen Necklace
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Videos,
Entertainment Tonight has released a few more moments of the infamous jewelry store surveillance video, where Lindsay Lohan spent a much talked-about 25 minutes of her life. The single shopping stop could send Linds to jail for felony grand theft. And, you can see the crime she committed in the video above.
Four cameras inside Kamofie & Co. captured Lohan from many angles as she shopped for trinkets, one of them a $2,500 necklace that she’s now accused of stealing. TMZ reports that Lohan is planning to sue the jewelry store for profiting from the surveillance tape, and making money for using her image (which she never gave them permission to do).
In the scene above, you'll see Lindsay Lohan putting on the necklace.

Lindsay Lohan Surveillance Video Sold
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Videos, Rumors,
UPDATE: Parts of the video can now be viewed here.
As we reported last week, there is about forty-five minutes of video surveillance that shows Lindsay Lohan inside the jewelry store where she allegedly stole a $2,500 necklace. The entire crime has been recorded by cameras.
And now, a single Beverly Hills company owns all that footage. Despite the fact that the surveillance video is still part of an ongoing court case, the video has been sold to The Spencer Co. On a new website created just for the video, the company promises that will bring the footage to viewers “shortly.”
According to the teaser page, “the tapes speak for themselves.” Yeah, that’s what we heard too. But that isn’t the same as seeing, and so far the site offers no definite times or dates. The Spencer Co. is working with the Associated Press on releasing the footage. It has been rumored that the jewelry store itself sold the video, though nothing official has been offered by any of the parties involved.
Entertainment Tonight obtained some pictures from the video, which you can view at their site.
Lindsay Lohan could be charged with felony grand theft for taking the necklace from Kamofie & Co.

What Does the Lindsay Lohan Surveillance Video Prove or Disprove?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Videos, Rumors,
TMZ has talked to some of the people who have reviewed the surveillance footage from Kamofie & Company, the jewelry store from which Lindsay Lohan allegedly lifted a $2500 necklace... and from what we’re hearing, the video shows that Linds didn't exactly pull off the crime of the century.
Reportedly, Lohan talked to the owner of the store before leaving, wearing the necklace almost the entire time she was inside. In the video, Lindsay tries on the necklace, looks at herself in the mirror and speaks to the owner while still wearing it around her neck. She took off the necklace she was already wearing in order to try on the one that could get her sent back to jail.
The necklace remained on her, in plain view, for the next 45 minutes as she continued to try on various pieces of jewelry within the store. She slipped her own necklace back on before leaving, but the store’s necklace was still plainly visible underneath.

Lindsay Lohan: Free From Jail, For Now
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Music, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Paparazzi Photos,
Lindsay Lohan’s $40,000 bail has been posted, and she’s free to roam all the jewelry stores in downtown Los Angeles . . . for now. The former child star pled not guilty on Wednesday to the felony grand theft charge she received for allegedly swiping a $2500 necklace from a Venice, California jewelry shop.
Lohan’s lawyer, Shawn Chapman-Holley, argues that Linds believed she was borrowing the piece. It is not uncommon for jewelry stores to lend out important pieces to celebs who will be photographed wearing the items, but in this case the jewelry store says no way -- Lindsay Lohan took the necklace without their consent or knowledge.
The actress must go back to court on February 23 to argue her innocence. Lohan could receive up to 3 years in prison for grand theft, if the charge sticks, on top of additional jail time for violating her probation. Lohan is on probation following her 2007 DUI arrest, and this won’t expire until August 11.
