For the fifth time since 2007, Lindsay Lohan checked into jail, said People​.com. This time her stay was brief. Though sentenced to 30 days for violating her probation, Lohan, 25, was sprung after only four hours in order to ease overcrowding at the Lynwood, Calif., detention center where she was ordered to report. To avoid an additional 270-day jail sentence, Lohan must work another 53 days as a janitor at the Los Angeles County morgue and finish 18 more psychological counseling sessions before the end of March 2012.
