Lindsay Lohan tearfully went to prison today to serve her sentence of 90 days because of DUI charges. She will be incarcerated at The Peninsula – Beverly Hills, an exclusive hotel in the Los Angeles area.
Many celebrity justice advocates showed up at Lindsay’s arrival, many of whom wore t-shirts that read “Justice for Lindsay.” The advocates have been fighting for weeks to get Judge Marsha Revel to provide Lohan with the type of accommodations that a star of her caliber deserves. “Do you think Paris Hilton would even cop a squat in a dump like the Peninsula?” asked Sandy Baker, one of the leaders of the celebrity justice movement in Los Angeles. She added that the room in which Lindsay will be imprisoned – the Deluxe Suite with a King Bed – only goes for $1,800 a night and is even occasionally used by ”regular” people.
Although Lindsay will have a full-time chef there to prepare meals, a masseuse to massage her aching muscles, and a bartender/supplier on site to provide her with any number of requests, advocates stress that her punishment is beyond anything reasonably forced on the general public. “If a normal person got a DUI, do you think they would even be imprisoned?” asked Sandy Culbertson, head of the Lindsay Lohan fan club. “They would just pay a fine and that would be it. But Lindsay is not only being imprisoned, but she’s has to do it in a place that may or may not have fecal matter on the sheets.”
Lindsay’s attorney at this moment, Shawn Chapman Holley, is fighting to have Lohan moved to a more suitable facility. Holley is lobbying Judge Revel to move Lohan to Necker Island, an exclusive club on a deserted island that charges $10,000 a night. That, asserts Holley, would be “more suitable for a star of Lindsay’s magnitude.”
