Lindsay Lohan Serves 84 Minutes for Two DUIs

Most people see this as rather outrageous, but it is pretty much standard for these types of cases. In July, Nicole Richie served 82 minutes for a 2006 DUI. Why they bother is beyond me if they know a head of time that this is going to happen when they arrive. She was supposed to only serve 24 hours anyways so it isn't like she was going to be in there making modern furniture and license plates. Most assume that because they are celebrities that they are getting some sort of break, but typically that is far from the case. Anyone with the same sentence and record would probably get the same deal as long as they actually hired a lawyer instead of just pleading guilty like a moron.
