Lindsay Lohan 'Ready To Accept' Jail Time

Lindsay Lohan is "angry" about her looming 120-day jail sentence, but is willing to accept her punishment and serve out her time, according to her producer pal Nathan Folks.

The Mean Girls star was charged with probation violation by a judge in Los Angeles on Friday (22Apr11) and ordered back to jail for a fourth time.

The sentence - which also includes 400 hours of community service - came as she pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanour charge relating to the alleged theft of a necklace from a California jewellery store back in January (11). The judge decided the accusation constituted a violation of her probation stemming from a 2007 Dui charge and Lohan was booked into a California jail before being freed on bail to appeal the sentence.

Movie producer Folks has now spoken out about his close friend's situation, revealing the 24 year old feels disappointed as she was looking forward to getting her acting career back on track with a number of new film roles.

He tells People.com, "She is fine. Obviously, she is upset about (being sentenced to four months in jail)... She is angry because she has been working so hard on turning her life around. She didn't do what they said she did. She didn't steal that necklace."

Folks also claims Lohan - who was released from three months of court-ordered rehab in January (11) - is prepared to go to jail and attend drink and drugs therapy to cement her recovery.

He adds, "She is ready to do her time. She wants to go to A.A. (Alcoholics Anonymous) and N.A. (Narcotics Anonymous) and to serve her 400 hours (of community service). She has already been doing lots of charity work."
