Prosecutors are looking into whether Dawn Holland, a former employee at the Betty Ford Clinic, was paid not to pursue charges that Lindsay Lohan physically assaulted her, said RadarOnline.com. Sources say the Riverside County, Calif., district attorney’s office believes that Lohan’s father, Michael, may have offered Holland $25,000 to let the affair drop. Holland recently decided not to pursue battery charges against Lohan for allegedly grabbing and twisting her arm last December.
