Lindsay Lohan is guilty of poor judgment.
For many of us, 35 days of house arrest would be a time for self-reflection, but it doesn't seem so for Lohan. The actress was back in court Thursday after photographs showed her partying on the roof of her Venice home while under house arrest for from on Abbot Kinney Boulevard.
"If you are in jail, you are not allowed to have parties. House arrest should be akin to jail," Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner told Lohan.
"Don't do stupid things that give people a reason to hate you. ... Don't do stupid things that fly in the face of the spirit of the court's order,” Sautner said.
The actress reportedly failed an alcohol test June 13, although her attorney insisted that the testing was done outside of the mandated sobriety period Lohan was serving for driving under the influence, another crime for which she served probation.
Lohan has been notified that she can no longer entertain more than one guest at a time while under house arrest. Let’s give Lohan the benefit of the doubt. Maybe the policy wasn’t clarified before.
Lohan could still have a wonderful life and career ahead of her. I sincerely hope she recognizes that the leniency from the courts is a chance for redemption.
