Lindsay Lohan's criminal activity reads like a long, predictable book, and that's just her acting career. We jest, of course, but her genuine crimes are coming back to haunt her, as TMZ reports she'll be officially charged with obstruction of justice. Gulp. 

Lindsay had told cops that she wasn't behind the wheel of the Porsche that slammed into the back of an 18-wheeled truck, but multiple witnesses run a story au contraire to hers, and it looks like those witnesses could land Miss Lohan in jail, because the police are charging her. You can lie about a lot of things in this world, but it all depends on who you're lying to. Lie about the amount of money you've got to your friends, and you're just a bit of a fibber; no problems, but lie to the taxman, and you're in trouble. It's a fine line, but it's one we're sure Lindsay will get to grips with after a short stint in jail. After all, she's yet to complete a full prison sentence handed to her. 

We digress. TMZ updated their story: The L.A. City Attorney's Office told them they were unaware of Lindsay's pending charge until they'd read the story this morning. Regarding her probation for stealing jewellery, they are "gathering information" but we still don't know if her actions violate it.
