Matthew Fox Gets Off Lightly

After he allegedly drunkenly punched a a female bus driver in the breast and vagina last month, I thought Matthew Fox was for the high jump - you can't go punching people in their sexy bits! It's just not the done thing.

However, it seems that the law for celebs is, once again, different from the law for us plebs. Police officials in Cleveland have decided that no charges will be brought against the LOST actor, although the woman with the (alleged) bruised tit and vandalised lady garden is still going to sue for around $25k.

If there's not enough evidence to bring charges, then I don't think she'll get her dolla. But still, good on her for trying. If he really did punch her in the foof then that's just pathetic. He'll totes never get a girlfriend again.

Lindsay Sentenced to 120 Days In Jail...Kinda.

The saga of the life of Lindsay Lohan continues. Early hours this morning (which I guess is yesterday afternoon U.S time...) Linds was sentenced to 120 days in jail for violating her probation over the whole stolen necklace malarkey. Thi is over what was a felony grand theft charge about the necklace in the picture above. Linds had just scored a victory in getting the charge down to a misdemeanour instead of a felony.

In addition to this, she has been sentenced to 480 hours of community service. Of those hours, 120 will be served at the L.A County morgue (creepy). The rest will be at the Downtown Women's Centre to show Lindsay how disadvantaged women live.

However, the crazy continues. As all this is over a misdemeanour violation (This crazy American justice system confuses me so much) Lindsay's team posted a $75,000 bail bond, getting her out of custody in all of five hours. She is now due back in court for a pretrial hearing on 11th May.

Lindsay Is (Almost) Defos Going To Jail

Uh-oh... Lindsay Lohan is in some serious shizz after her court appearance this morning. Because she's up for stealing a neacklace, she's in violation of her probation, which means that the judge has the right to put her in jail after her preliminary hearing on 10th March.

The judge has offered her a deal whereby she would be in prison for six months, but she would have to plead guilty. If she pleads not guilty, then the judge has the option to haul her skinny bum into jail while she awaits trial. Word is that Linds will probably plead either guilty or no contest, and then try and bargain the six months down to as little as possible.

This whole thing makes me really sad, and I hope that she can persuade the jury of her innocence, if innocent she is, but I really doubt it. Her reputation preceeds her, and I would imagine both judge and jury would take pleasure in sending her down. She is going to be made an example of to the highest degree, and I really don't think that's good for her as a recovering addict.

Lindsay to be Charged with Felony?

 
TMZ reports that Lindsay Lohan is going to be charged with felony grand theft, which sounds awfully impressive. The owner of a Los Angeles boutique says she has pictures of Linds trying on the necklace, and there are also paparazzi shots, like the one above, which show her wearing the necklace that she has not paid for (it's the short gold chain in the picture). Lohan claims that her stylist and assisstants are responsible for sorting out the paperwork required to loan clothes and jewellery, and that she was unaware that this was not done. Poor lamb.

Lindsay has been accused of theft before, most notably after a photoshoot with Elle magazine. She was said to have left with thousands of pounds worth of jewellery, although that all got sorted out without any charges being brought.

While TMZ also report that the District Attorney's Office have said that no decision has been made, they are standing by their reports. All this really isn't going to help with the whole DUI/Prison/Rehab stuff... seeing as Lindsay is still on probation.
