Lindsay Lohan ducks jail, gets rebab renewed

Lindsay Lohan[HMG Celebrity News] – In further proof the justice system in Hollywood is in dire need of a reboot, Lindsay Lohan has avoided a jail sentence again, and been sentenced to rehab for her recent probation infraction.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox ordered that the 24-year old addict must now remain at the Betty Ford Center until January 3rd, then report back to court on February 25.
Sources say Lohan cried happy tears after hearing the sentence.
In her fifth court appearance in only five months, Lohan was facing a possible sentence of 30-days for each drug test she’d avoided or failed. But Fox opted for rehab after reading reports by probation officers and a letter from Lohan herself.
But he cautioned the faded starlet she would face jail if another relapse occurred.
This is the same judge who canceled Lohan’s probation on September 24 and sent her back to jail. She was free on bail the same day, and has since been in voluntary rehab at the Betty Ford clinic.
This whole legal mess stems from her arrest on August 23, 2007 for drug use and DUI, She pleaded guilty to using cocaine and driving while drunk and was sentenced to one day in jail, and ten days of community service.
And they wonder why she doesn’t change.
Back in September Fox laid out a 60-day schedule of counseling sessions, meetings with probation officers and random drug screenings that would end her probation if she complied.
In less than three weeks, Lohan failed a drug test. She later acknowledged this on Twitter, but claimed she was ’struggling’ with addiction.
And so it goes on.
