On Tuesday, a judge sentenced Lindsay Lohan to 90 days in jail and an inpatient rehab program after finding the actress and singer had violated the terms of her probation in a 2007 drug case.
The actress was seen crying immediately after the ruling.
Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel issued the sentence after listening to testimony from employees of an alcohol treatment program that Lohan had been ordered to attend on Tuesday. They said Lohan missed seven classes since December, which led to the judge’s harsh rebuke of Lohan moments after the star offered a tearful apology.
“I did do everything I was told to do and did the best I could to balance jobs and showing up,” Lohan told the judge. “It wasn’t vacation, it wasn’t some sort of a joke.”
But the judge said she found the apology insincere and compared it to “somebody who cheats and thinks it isn’t cheating if she doesn’t get caught.”
Lohan will surrender on July 20 and was not taken into custody immediately. Until then, she will wear an alcohol monitor.
Revel had earlier ordered Lohan to wear an ankle alcohol monitor after the starlet missed a court date in May. Lohan was promoting a film project at the Cannes Film Festival at the time and claimed her passport was stolen.
Later, the monitor issued an alert after the actress attended the MTV Movie Awards and after-parties last month. Revel said the device registered a .03 blood alcohol level, and Lohan denies drinking that night.
