michael lohan is in big trouble. but not really.

Do you see now why a Lindsay picture ban is long overdue?

But, whatever.  More to the point, TMZ has lost their minds.  Today they have the breathless headline that Michael Lohan may face jail time because he gave Radar Online recordings of several phone calls between himself, Lindsay and his ex wife Dina.

Michael Lohan could wind up behind bars for his despicable decision to release secret recordings of his family’s phone conversations — because it appears (he) wasn’t legally allowed to be on the calls in the first place.
It’s all over a protective order Dina obtained in Nassau County, New York back in 2005, which bans Michael from communicating with Dina by email or phone until 2011.
Unfortunately for Lindsay — who was granted a one-year protective order against Michael back in 2004 — there are no laws against being an insensitive, fame-hungry, backstabbing father.

Clearly this has outraged TMZ and will set back their quest to clean up celebrity media, and has nothing to do with the tapes going to a rival, but is what they’re saying even true?  I don’t know what the statute of limitations is on perfectly pleasant phone calls but if she wanted to report this crime she should have done it by now.

This is New York. And she’s already said the phone calls are over a year old. The judge is gonna have her approach the bench just so he can conk her on the head with his gavel. She could maybe try to claim she felt threatened, but there’s simply no chance her dumb ass is smart enough for that. They’re dumb as rocks, these Lohans.  “He made me talk to him, I couldn’t get away. I heard a hissing sound. I think he had dynamite. I was lucky to get off the phone alive.”
