Lindsay Lohan probably won’t go to jail

Lindsay Lohan

Yesterday, I said that despite the eight months of jail hanging over Lindsay Lohan‘s head, there was a pretty good chance she’d get off scot-free because come on, how can you stay mad at that bloated, botoxed face? Well it turns out the prosecutors are not effing around here, and are demanding that her probation be revoked ASAP. TMZ reports:

According to the L.A. City Attorney’s office, prosecutors want Lindsay’s probation revoked because of the criminal charges recently filed against her in Santa Monica, stemming from her car accident on PCH this summer … after which she lied to cops about being behind the wheel.

Well, with prosecutors that eager to have Lindsay answer for her actions, I’m sure the judge will waste no time in throwing the book at Lindsay, right? HA! Nah, we’re just kidding ya. It turns out, Lindsay got the only judge in L.A. who refuses to send anyone to jail.

Now the good news for Lindsay. One source very familiar with the Commish tells TMZ … “Godfrey is not a big jail person.” Get this … Commissioner Godfrey presides over Drug Court, in which she hears case after case involving people with serious drug cases. Godfrey strongly favors counseling over jail, to the point she has a graduation ceremony for people who complete the program and digs into her own pocket to buy little gifts for the graduates … like Starbucks cards.

Look, we like to joke a lot about how, instead of making her accountable for her choices, the L.A. legal system basically panders to Lindsay to the point where they’re practically buying her gifts, but HOLY HELL. I never actually expected any of these jokes to be real. But they are. How freaky is that?
