DUI plea sends Lohan to morgue
18/01/2008 09:23 - (SA)
Los Angeles - Some people are dying to be with Lindsay Lohan - literally.
The 21-year-old actress is entering a phase of her punishment for misdemeanour drunk driving that involves a stint at a morgue, her attorney, Blair Berk, told a judge on Thursday.
She has also spent two months in rehabilitation and has done some community service, Berk said at a hearing on her progress toward fulfilling the terms of her plea bargain.
Her two four-hour days at the morgue are part of a court-ordered programme to show drivers the real-life consequences of drinking and driving.
She must also spend two days working in a hospital emergency room.
Lohan was arrested twice last year on DUI charges and pleaded guilty in August to misdemeanour drunken driving and cocaine charges.
She's already served 84 minutes in jail as part of the plea deal.
Lohan was not required to appear at Thursday's hearing.
