Sources close to Lindsay Lohan say that she is not afraid to go to trial and believes the surveillance tape which recorded the alleged necklace thieving as well as the events preceding it at the store will clear her name.
Lindsay doesn’t care what her lawyer, Shawn Holley, is negotiating she is simply not going willing to cop a plea to anything if the agreement involves jail time.
Any deal that Shawn Holley is trying to broker will almost certainly involve jail time. Holley and prosecutor Danette Meyers are going to see Judge Keith Schwartz next week, and Holley wants to gauge judge’s feelings on the case to see on how much jail time he’ll give her if she pleads guilty. The judge made it clear at the last hearing that Lindsay will do time in the event of a plea agreement – probably 3-6 months.
But sources close to Lindsay say that she doesn’t care what kind of deal Holley can get – if there is any jail time involved, she wants no part of it.
If Lindsay did not steal the necklace and feels she can prove it then why SHOULD she plead guilty? But does she really think she is innocent? Why would prosecutors and the jewellery store press forward if Lindsay did not steal the necklace?
