    Ms. Lindsay Lohan should to be doing far more than ninety days in prison, anything less and I believe is always to total slap in the face on the legal program. Lindsay Lohan is already getting off totally free just mainly because she’s a celebrity. It completely sends an incorrect message, specially towards kids that look up to her as a role model. I am reading now that she’ll probably only wind up serving fourteen days of her ninety day sentence. I guess driving whilst plastered isn’t really so poor after all- the things these stars get away with is a crying shame.
