Remember how Lindsay Lohan wasn’t ready to accept a plea deal in court yesterday, instead preferring to wait for her lawyer to check if the surveillance video vindicated her? Yeah, well she might want to rethink that! Lindsay claimed that her stylist was the one who “forgot” to return that necklace, but sources say the jewelry store surveillance video clearly shows her stealing it. According to RadarOnline.com, a male friend of LiLo’s allegedly “distracted the clerk on purpose” while she put the necklace on and later walked out of the store with it.
“Lindsay had removed a necklace of hers that she was wearing when she tried on the necklace in question,” the source close to the case told RadarOnline.com, exclusively. “As Lindsay was putting her necklace back on, it’s apparent the store clerk was distracted by the male companion that was with Lindsay.”
The sales associate provided a statement to investigators claiming she didn’t realize that Lohan hadn’t taken the necklace off, RadarOnline.com has learned.
“The video then shows Lindsay and her male friend walking out of the store, all while Lindsay was wearing the necklace,” said the source. “It’s all clearly visible on the video.”
Yesterday, Lindsay entered a plea of not guilty to one count of felony grand theft. Should the video prove to be as damning as some who have seen it are claiming (one even called it a ‘smoking gun’) she could be facing three years in jail.
“The District Attorney believes that Lindsay’s friend distracted the clerk on purpose and that could bolster the case if it goes to trial against Lindsay,” said the source. “This simply wasn’t a case of miscommunication of a necklace being loaned and not returned, as Lindsay has claimed.”
Lindsay’s next court date is March 10th. If she still refuses a deal the case will go before another Judge for a preliminary hearing, and then go to trial. Whether she wants to or not it would be in Lindsay’s best interest to just suck it up and take the plea because chances are she’s gonna wind up behind bars either way. Even if Lindsay is somehow exonerated at trial, she’ll still be in jail for the probation violation. Not looking too good for Ms. Lohan either way you look at it.
