Lindsay Lohan has refused a plea deal that would have required her to spend 30 days in drug and alcohol rehabilitation to avoid jail time for negligent driving and lying to police. The troubled actress pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor charges after crashing her car in June last year, but with a trial now set for March 18, she turned down the prosecutors’ plea offer, sources told FoxNews.com. “Lindsay doesn’t think there is anything wrong with her, so she is not interested in rehab,” said a source. “And as for going to jail, she doesn’t even think that is a possibility.” Lohan also refused an offer from actor Charlie Sheen to act as her mentor. “[She] clearly needs a mentor, whether she wants one or not,” Sheen said.
