NEW YORK, Aug. 13 (UPI) -- Lindsay Lohan's mother told interviewer Matt Lauer the media and justice system are largely to blame for the U.S. actress' problems.
The 24-year-old star of "Freaky Friday" and "Mean Girls" has served two stints in jail and taken four trips to rehab, due to her addictions to alcohol and drugs.Talking to Lauer on Friday's edition of the "Today" show, Dina Lohan blamed her daughter's problems on the tabloids, the Internet, Lindsay's father Michael and Marsha Revel, the judge who recently recused herself from handling Lindsay's parole violation in her 2007 driving under the influence case, E! News said.
Lindsay spent nearly two weeks behind bars this summer for missing her court-ordered alcohol education classes.
"I think (Revel) went overboard and played serious hardball with Lindsay," Dina Lohan said, adding she didn't think her daughter deserved any jail time at all "for this particular offense". UPI
