throw away the key, silly rich brat.

I really don't get this. :nope:

How in <expletive-of-your-choice> this kind of circus can go on and on? If funding state prisons is really that difficult why not to out-source the service? I'm quite convinced that there are numerous inexpensive holiday establishments in northern Siberia... just a bit paint here and there and they would be ready to house few Californians.

[Platapus]

I can understand the overcrowding situation. But I don't understand why the solution is to release new prisoners (last in first out).

To me the appropriate solution is to release the prisoners that have been there the longest.

This simply smells of favoritism.

[Kongo Otto]

Boy oh Boy that Lindsay Lohan crap is so utterly boring.
Put her in jail, keep her in there for the time she has to do and afterwards she can do some crappy C-Picture DVD only releases together with Wesley Snipes.
Really who cares about such utterly worthless crap from an B-Category wannabee Star?

The Movie Title of her 2004 movie "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" becomes a totally new meaning as this "Justice" story continues.

Just delaying her playboy photo spread.....pun intended

Maybe someday she can get together with Paris Hilton, Amanda Knox and Casey Anthony and start a band.

"Lindsay Lohan released from jail after five-hour stay" :damn:

How can state maintain law and order if it can't get probation breaking clowns behind bars? Doesn't this send message that in case of "minor offences" law book is most useful as toilet tissue? :doh:

[vienna]

The local media here in Los Angeles broadcast press statements by the Sheriff's Department (who control and administer the local jail system here) stating Lohan would recieve no special treatment. The first statements right after the judge's sentence said Lohan might get early release and serve about 8-10 days of her sentence. The next day, the statements said she would probably serve 5-7 days; the following statement said 3-4 days. Now it turns out to be just 5 hours. It takes longer than 5 hours to process an normal inmate into the jail system and considerably longer to process them out. This I know from a lawyer friend of mine who has experince via his clients. Also, Lohan was not put into the same holding area as the other prisoners being processed; she was kept in an office where amenities were available to her. But, as we all know this is not special treatment...

In an earlier post in another thread regarding Lohan and her court proceedings, I noted that the Sheriff of Los Angeles County was starstruck and more than borderline incompetent; this is only a further indication of how truly off-kilter the local jail system has become. The judge in the Lohan case issued a very complicated sentence to try to make some sort of punishment stick. The judge's intentions are frustrated by the actions of the Sheriff. I can only hope the current state and federal investigations into the the operations of the Sheriff's department produce criminal charges and convictions against the current Sheriff and he ends up being processed by a successor who is not as prone to be as liberal with his favors regarding jail time served...

[Platapus]

How can anyone be "starstruck" by Lohan?

What I want the media to be reporting on is whether this exact same thing would be experienced by one of us being sentenced.

As I wrote before, this "last in first out" schema seems to be selectively applied. The sheriff is telling us that there were no other low risk non violent offenders that could be released due to over crowding?

Sounds like bull stein to me.

If this happened to me, I would be eating stale baloney sandwiches in a cell with three other guys. :yep:

Well, you'll never know unless you try.

So let's conduct a scientific experiment:
Go out and commit a crime.
When you are arrested, tell them that you are Lindsay Lohan and see if they treat you any different.:hmmm:



If, for some reason it doesn't work, you can stun the cops with the "Platapus Song" and make your escape.

Platapus, you are very correct. You would indeed be eating stale baloney sandwiches as you watched yet another celebrity or VIP waltz in and out of the jail long before you...

The Sheriff of Los Angeles County, Lee Baca, is a real piece of work. He has some rather odd philosophies regarding his department and its administration. He also has exhibited a propensity to accomodate celebrity/VIP prisoners no matter how small the celebrity may be in the realm of fame. The "last in first out" schema is not at all being applied in L.A. county jails. Favoritism has long been a factor in who stays and who gets out. Also, if you should happen to be so unforunate as to tick off the Sheriff or one of his deputies in the jail system, you could see your chance for early release evaporate. This is just one of the reasons the department is being criminally investigated; if there were any sense of justice in the running of the jail system, Baca would be a guest of one of his own facilities.

The local media does report on the disparity of sentencing as applied by the Sheriff and other cases of malfeasance and/or mismanagement in the jail system. Much has been pointed out by the press and little has been done by the L.A. County Board of Supervisors, the local governing body with jurisdiction over the Sheriff and his operation of the jail system. The only reasons I can suss out is the Board may fear if allegations are proven in court, the County may be liable financially, for very lage amounts of money in ensuing lawsuits.

I really feel for the judges in the Lohan case; they have really, really tried, in terms of penalties, to get something to stick or hold up, but Baca and his insistence to rule his jail "domain" as he see fit, in complete disregard of the intent of the court, thwarts them every time...

I would suggest you do not commit any misdemeanors in Los Angeles County, that is, unless you become famous for the Platapus Song... :DL
