> [@Oakminster](#): > > The OP has the cart several miles ahead of the horse here. At the moment, the facts show only that Lohan attended the party accompanied by other people, and that some property may have been stolen during the party. There is no proof that Lohan or her entourage were involved in any theft. She did the right thing by not talking to the cops. If there’s a case to be made against her, let them make it without her assistance. Exactly. After all the times that first reports of an incident proved to be completely inaccurate, you’d think that someone merely being in the vicinity without the slightest shred of an inkling of a particle of a connection to the actual crime might give people pause. Sure, the guys she brought may have done it. Yes, she may have known they were crooks. Hey, maybe she twittered ahead of time that she was going to knock off Fort Knox and snort all the bullion. Right now, though, you guys got nothing and are making fools of yourselves. ---

Uh, you wouldn’t know more than half your guests at the kind of party described. ---

It’s certainly possible that Lindsay set it up. But if the two fellas can keep their mouths shut, there will be little chance of proving it. But then if criminals could keep their mouths shut, there wouldn’t be nearly so many people in prison. ---

Who the fuck is Lindsay Lohan? Some high-class burglar? Why are we interested in her? Why does she deserve any more exposure time than the police blotter on page 47? ---

> [@Musicat](#): > > Who the fuck is Lindsay Lohan? Some high-class burglar? Why are we interested in her? Why does she deserve any more exposure time than the police blotter on page 47? She is somewhat hot, nice rack, occasionally naked, and way fucked up. Her roller coaster ride is going to provide plenty of entertainment. Also, I think she’s in movies or something. ---

The last time Lindsay called, I wasn’t home but she left a message saying that this was really fucked up and she had nothing to do with it at all. I believe her; she’s really changed… ---

> [@corkboard](#): > > TMZ is blocked here at work, so maybe this was answered in the article, but if the police showed up before anyone left, wouldn’t it be an easy task of searching the guests for the “missing” items? If they’re clean, they walk? IANAL, but I’m fairly certain you can’t legally detain your guests and require them to submit to a body search before leaving. And the cops can’t do it either. They can search someone as part of an arrest (with probable cause for the arrest of course), but not just “You can’t leave this house until you consent to a body search.” ---

> [@Musicat](#): > > Who the fuck is Lindsay Lohan? Some high-class burglar? Why are we interested in her? Why does she deserve any more exposure time than the police blotter on page 47? Because her name sells page-views. As evidenced by people who enter threads about her just to complain about how much people talk about her. ---

Hey, maybe she twittered ahead of time that she was going to knock off Fort Knox and snort all the bullion. Right now, though, you guys got nothing and are making fools of yourselves. Who guys? This thread guys? Nobody but the OP has accused anybody of anything. I think you mean ‘you guy got nothing and are making fool of yourself’. Only you probably mean it a bit more grammatically correct. ---
