   Lindsay Lohan reacts with disbelief and tears when hearing she has to do a 90-day jail sentence

The other day, Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to 90 days in jail, stemming from charges of violating her parole, as stated in the case of two separate DUI arrests. No amount of crying, pleading and begging could convince the judge to spare her jail time. It did, however, grant Lindsay two more weeks of freedom – a time that may actually prove fatal to her, concerned friends tell TMZ.

Though she insists that there is absolutely nothing wrong with her – in terms of being addicted to illegal substances, alcohol or even both – and that her complicated legal situation is nothing but the result of a series of tragic yet completely preventable misunderstandings, friends of hers are telling the media that these two weeks may prove devastating for her. The judge assigned to her Lindsay’s case, the same one who made a point of saying she would get no preferential treatment because she was a known star, gave her two weeks to turn herself in – and friends fear now that she may go overboard during this time.

“Friends of Lindsay Lohan tell TMZ... they fear for her safety – even her survival – during her two weeks of freedom before going to jail. The judge could have sent Lindsay to the slammer immediately, but instead gave her until July 20 to turn herself in. Friends worry that Lindsay is now fully off the hinges and may not be able to resist the drugs and alcohol,” TMZ informs. Apparently, Lindsay may have gotten to a point where she no longer cares what happens to her, which is what makes these two weeks of freedom so dangerous for her.

“The catch-22 – if Lindsay falls off the wagon she could end up getting even more jail time. Even worse, her friends worry Lindsay could become so irrational she could harm herself. As if there weren’t enough temptation... there’s a big delated birthday bash for Lindsay set for tonight at an L.A. club – not the best place for a future inmate with a SCRAM accessory,” the same media outlet further says.

While friends fear for her life, the other day in court, Lindsay showed that she still had a sense of humor about the entire situation – or perhaps she was only being her spoilt self, depending on how one looks at this. The star appeared in court with her fingernails painted in bright summery colors but, on her middle finger, she had written in black a cuss that starts with an “f” and ends in “you.” Not only that, but she also repeatedly put her fingers to her mouth in a gesture that made many believe she was actually directing the two words on her fingernail to the judge presiding, as E! Online puts it.
