When Lindsay Lohan checked into a sober living house shortly after hiring her new lawyer, Robert Shapiro, it looked like ol’ Rob was doing his best to get Lindsay out of jail time in favor of rehab. But it turns out that’s not the case. Here’s what he told E!:
“I have agreed to represent Ms. Lohan on the condition that she complies with all of the terms of her probation, including a requirement of jail time that was imposed by Judge Marsha Revel. Ms. Lohan is suffering from a disease that I am all too familiar with. Hopefully, I can be of assistance to Ms. Lohan and Judge Revel in implementing a treatment approach recommended by medical professionals for Ms. Lohan’s long term recovery and sobriety.”
So what happened to the Lohan family whining about unfair trials? Maybe they changed their minds and realized that Lindsay needs to face up to what she’s done and just go to jail, and that’s why she went and checked into that sober house. Or maybe Robert Shapiro tricked them while they were all drunk/high/naturally stupid. Only time will tell – there are only three days left till Lindsay heads towards the slammer.
Learn.. paying for your debt and errors, accepting you are wrong, taking responsibility for your foolishness is the first step, understanding and accepting you are wrong and must change is progress.
I am inclined to believe the latter was the case. Very nicely put.
What happened to the Lohans is that they are desperate for free legal council. What happened to Robert Shapiro is that he is using Lindsay as a substitute for his deceased son and trying to get publicity for his rehab house.
Maybe he’s the right guy to bring this crazy family to their senses. Too bad he helped a now-confessed murderer walk free.
