The truth will set you free, and in Lindsay Lohan’s case,
not telling it could land you in the slammer. It was reported on Tuesday that
the “Liz & Dick” actress will be charged with lying to police at the time
of her June 8 car crash on the Pacific Coast Highway because she told them she
was not the one driving – even though multiple witnesses, including her
personal assistant, said she was.
While the charge is a misdemeanor, it could spell jail
time for the 26-year-old since she is still on probation for the January 2009
necklace theft, even though her official probation ended earlier this year. It
will be up to Judge Stephanie Sautner, who oversaw that case, to decide whether
or not Lohan could wind up back in jail. As of press time, the L.A. City
Attorney’s Office was aware of the new charge against Lohan, but had yet to
make a decision about charging her with a probation violation.
TMZ also
reports that police found prescription pills in
Lohan’s purse and strewn all over the trunk of her car when she slammed
her
rented Porsche into the back of an 18-wheeler on the PCH. But she
avoided being charged with any drug crimes because they were all
properly prescribed to her. At the time, it was
also reported that a water bottle filled with alcohol was in Lohan's
trunk as well.
