Very sorry to hear that. My best wishes to your full recovery.
Obviously imprisoning girls like this for testing positive for coke probably would have prevented that, right?
I think you are missing the larger issue here. If the drunk driver that broke your legs had been in jail instead of on the road when he hurt you, then certainly yes, that would have prevented your injury. Do you disagree?
If that drunk driver would have been caught for driving drunk twice, maybe been in prison as a result, maybe forced into real rehab with non-compliance penalities as a result, maybe your legs wouldn't have been broken by the drunk driver.
Maybe you are making it all up, I don't know for a fact, but find it difficult to believe that someone who suffered a sever injury as the result of an impaired driver would be so willy-nilly supportive of a drunk or drugged out idiot that was caught (multiple times) driving drunk.
A reasonable person would think that someone who had both their legs broke, not just one, but both, would find some intelligent aspect to punishing people who drive under the influence of mind altering substances regardless of their personal position on the private use of mind altering substances.
Then again, you might just be stoned, or a liar, or stupid. Personally - I am not sure which right about now but am considering choice "D" all of the above...
That’s what it took to get Robt. Downey Jr. straight. Federal prison for what, two years?
She might learn. And then maybe not. Miss Lohan is on the short end of the fuse of doom here. If she doesn’t have the ability or willingness to be honest with herself and get sober and stay that way she’s toast. I only pray she doesn’t kill or injure some innocent person on the way down.
Not sure what to say, other than it might be wise to seek professional help.
The most difficult part will be giving up her old lifestyle. If she stays being a party girl and hanging with her old friends she’ll never be able to get her act together.
She can get just as much drugs in jail as on the street. Judge needs to choose a rehab hospital with a stellar record and send her there for a year. Not a plush Betty Ford Clinic either.
Memphis Union Mission has a 80% success rate vs the gov’t run facilities.
Maybe a year in with a Christian Mission team in the Congo might do the trick.
Yeah that’s true in part. But for the addicted the only thing that matters is feeding it. So even if she loses everything as long as she’s unable or unwilling to be honest with herself Lindsey will continue feeding her addiction alone. Hate to sound negative here but there’s no guarantee of a happy ending with someone like this. Certainly the worst thing on the face of it would be Lindsey Lohan dying from an overdose and or /car accident/suicide. Far worse would be that she didn’t die but caused the death of an innocent person. There is NEVER any fixing that. It’s sad but this young woman could easily be dead in a few years.
