Celebrity Justice
Lohan May Dodge the World's Biggest Bullet

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ there is a "strong possibility" the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office will NOT file felony charges against Lindsay Lohan in connection with her two DUI arrests.

We're told charges may be filed tomorrow, and the D.A. is leaning toward rejecting three possible felonies. Sources say the D.A. almost certainly will not file cocaine charges in connection with her DUI bust Memorial Day weekend in Beverly Hills.

As for her July 24 arrest in Santa Monica, the D.A. could charge her with felony cocaine possession, and bringing cocaine into a correctional facility -- also a felony. But we're told that the D.A. is inclined not to file those felony charges either.

That basically leaves misdemeanor DUI charges for both incidents. If Lohan is found guilty of both, she'd have to serve a minimum of four days in jail, and that beats prison, baby!

And we're told Lohan's mega-lawyer Blair Berk and prosecutors have been talking a lot and that spells a possible plea bargain.

Here's what's for sure: If Lohan is not charged with a felony, she is not required to attend Friday's arraignment. If that's the case, put money on it -- Lindsay will be a no show.

5. This is ridiculous. Exactly how much more do you need to do to encourage underage people to drink and drive without worrying about the consequences? You can kill a teenager and get 90 days. You can be a repeat offender with drugs and get misdemeanor charges. God forbid you drive on a suspended license, though, because they will NAIL you for that one. I'm disgusted with the whole thing.

6. Top 5 !!!

Another Celeb goes free? How many of our tax dollars were wasted on arresting and processing her?

7. And there you have it, another case of a celebretard breaking the law, and getting away with it, even with proof she is guilty!

Rich get richer and the poor get the picture, there are two sets of laws, one for the rich, and there is everyone else.

11. Curious to see what actually happens. I have to believe that even the LA DA is starting to figure out that people aren't thrilled by this stuff, that whether it's real or not there's a perception of the "stars" flaunting the law and getting away with it.. I do hope that she straightens out, but her actions merit real charges, and time in the can.

12. More of the "typical celebrity justice". Los Angeles is truly a joke !

13. WTF?!!!! WTF?!!! WTF?!!!

She should be in prison! Anyone else would be! What are they just waiting for her to KILL SOMEONE? It seems that may be the only thing to stop this trainwreck!!!

I hope that EVERYONE involved in that SUV chase of hers sues her! I guess if she can sneak out from under laws, maybe the civil lawsuits will slow her a little. Maybe someone should have given her a burial plot for her 21st birthday. She'll probably need it before her 22nd!!!

14. If she was Laquitia Lohan they would have thrown the book at her!

Damn racist LA law enforcement.

15. There should be an outcry and lawsuits from ANYONE who did hard time for the same crimes as her due to preferential and unconstitutional treatment. SCREW THE LAPD AND COURTS! It's not fair that others do time on a first offense and she's a habitual problem and gets barely a slap on the wrist.

This is wrong on so many levels it's not funny.
