Lindsay Lohan in Trouble Again, Suspect in Criminal Battery Case at the Betty Ford Clinic

As reported at TMZ …

Lindsay Lohan cannot seem to keep herself out of trouble. This time she is a suspect in a battery case while she was at the Betty Ford Clinic. Are you serious? She can’t even behave herself while in rehab! It is reported that ”the victim desired prosecution.” When will this girl ever learn?

Lindsay Lohan is a suspect in a criminal battery investigation and the alleged victim — a staff member at Betty Ford — wants Lindsay prosecuted … this according to law enforcement sources.

The Palm Desert Police Department is now investigating an altercation that occurred after Lindsay and her roommates reportedly went to a bar and came back home.  Upon arriving at the house, the incident with a female staffer from Betty Ford allegedly went down.

The police received a call at 1:03 AM on December 12 for “hand-to-hand battery.”

From Newsday comes the following:

There, as the site claimed Lohan told friends afterward, a female staff member “unfairly” scolded her, demanded she take a drug/alcohol test and, during a heated exchanged, put her hands on the starlet. Lohan, said TMZ, told the woman “Take your hands off of me” and then “pushed back.”

Just a couple of weeks from completing her court appointed rehab,Lohan now finds herself being investigated by police after allegedly assaulting a female employee at the clinic. So how will this affect the terms of Lohan’s DUI probation?

UPDATE I: Lindsay Lohan Snuck Out of Rehab for Alcohol, Worker Says.

I guess this would defeat the purpose of being in rehab.

An employee of the clinic went public Tuesday with claims the actress was “out of control” and had alcohol on her breath during a tussle between them on Dec. 12.
