Jail Decidedly Lacking In V.I.P. Services

As Barack Obama leads the world in the Great Lindsay Lohan Prison Crisis, Lindsay's mom Dina is not going to stand by in silence as its people treat the next Marilyn with such indignity. Lindsay is serving 90 days (or two weeks) for violating her probation for a DUI, having skipped alcohol-education classes to go to Cannes. She is expected to be released this weekend.

"We're all so happy that this is finally coming to a close," Dina told Radar. "When this first happened, we were all hysterical messes. But I'm so proud of Lindsay, she's been so strong and positive, even under what I consider to be an extremely harsh punishment." Humiliations that Lindsay has endured include being deprived of water (except for the water that comes out of her sink), sleeping without a pillow, and being separated from her visitors by glass.

Dina concludes that her daughter is being treated like "a common criminal" instead of the Disney princess she, uh, was. Lindsay's lawyer has already questioned the fairness of making the 24-year-old go straight to rehab from prison. And she doesn't get to choose her own facility, making it less likely she'll go to some Jacuzzi-equipped cakewalk like Promises.

"She does not get to pick the facility," a spokesperson for the D.A.'s office tells Us. "It will be chosen by the judge in consultation with our prosecutor, [Lindsay's] defense attorney and the probation department." May I suggest Guantanamo?
