Car chase passengers to sue Lindsay Lohan
July 27, 2007 by Arieanna
Lindsay Lohan will face a lawsuit from the three guys who were unwilling passengers to her car chase. They are claiming that their vehicle was taken without permission, that they were put in harms way, and were faced with emotional distress and negligence. Ronnie Blake may also seek to sue Lindsay Lohan for running over his foot, since he does not have medical insurance.
From The Insider:
LINDSAY LOHAN is facing a potential lawsuit from DANTE NIGRO, JAKON SUTTER and RONNIE BLAKE — the three men who say they were passengers riding with her on the morning of her arrest. A rep for the men says if an agreement can’t be reached amicably they will present her attorney with a civil complaint.
In a news conference Friday morning, the trio’s lawyer said that they were there firsthand to experience Lindsay’s relapse, and "they never, ever expected to be in a car with her. It was a surprise to them."…
The trio’s lawyer added that his clients "want Miss Lohan to get the kind of help that her attorney says she wants," and that if she sought professional help for her problem, "That would be an important point of consideration in being pleased at how the matter is being handled."
As for Ronnie Blake’s foot, which was allegedly run over by Lohan in the SUV (he was seen hobbling with a cane to the conference), the trio’s lawyer says his foot is getting better, he’s been icing it and is seeing a doctor this afternoon, and he did not have medical insurance at the time of the incident and had to arrange for some.
Tune in tonight to The Insider for more on Lindsay Lohan.

so,of course,the ‘victims’ take their ’story’ to tmz,LOL,the bastion of credibility in hollywierd.i find it disgusting that they air their ’story’ at a time when the person in question,Lindsay,is powerless to defend herself,much less refute the obvious exaggerations of this account.all these ‘Lindsay e-mails’,exclusives,etc are just a bunch of trashloid stories because no one knows what really happened,where she’s at,and there are no pics or video of that tragic night.it’s all heresay,their word against a relapsed and quite sick young woman who is extremely vulnerable and clearly not in the right frame of mind.that said,i continue to wish her well and hope that,wherever she is,she is finally getting the help she so desperately needs.i am still a huge fan of this remarkably talented young lady and look forward to seeing her on the silver screen someday.for now,i will be seeing her thriller,I Know Who Killed Me.peace
Good for them.
I hope they get millions.
They need to get some “pay-back” while she still has money, – she’s going to be doing some real time in prison (not the hilton-type fiasco) and has ended any chances of respect and a serious “career”. She’s been an adult for 3 years now and is TOTALLY responsible for her own decisions and unavoidable consequences. Too bad, she has had EVERY chance to be the opposite type of person than she actually is, – HER choice, though.
Now an attempt is being made to support the story that it was Lindsay driving, as the police did not actually find her behind the wheel, so they ( the Plotters ) are trying to tie her incontrovertably to being behind the wheel, to make the DUI more solid, if the police did not actually catch Lindsay driving, then the DUI can not stand, nor can the Cocaine charges….unlawfull search following UnLawfull Arrest, so their case now needs to be corroborated, thus the three trying to say it was Lindsay doing the Driving, HOWEVER !!! The 911 Tape clearly points out it was a HE over and over who was doing the driving, so they probably did the driving at her request, found themselves in trouble, and are trying to shift the BLAME to Lindsay….Woman, you neeeeeed to drop that particular group of ” Friends ” they mean you no good. Thank God, no evidence ( real ) can be currently found that it was Lindsay doing the Driving, ( Her word against theirs, and the 911 tape ) and the 911 tapes aren’t alterable now in lockup as evidence. She isn’t going to do ANY jail time for this one, it is going to blow away. Thats The LAW folks. You tried to set her up again, and failed again, Thank God. Lindsay, GET OUT OF THERE, while you still can, OR, bring ME to you to help protect you,( which might be the better alternative, as you still have the shoot for ‘ Poor Things ‘ if you want to remain professional about it, remember the Show Must Go On motto for Hollywood ) it’s getting difficult to keep doing this remotely. I’d rather be much closer. Love You Always, God Bless You Always, From ME Larry T Robinson OR Tn. Remember this too, You are an Adult now, You get to make the Decisions, like bringing ME to You, to help protect You from the machinations of those currently arround you, even if others in your so called ” Camp ” don’t like that Idea. Just a thought my love, something to consider, but please make some really GOOD adult decisions now. Watch Your Back ALL the time, Trust NO ONE, not even me if you get me there to assist you, Keep JAZ closer, seems like you need him to be watching you a little closer to help keep you out of trouble. Looking forward to being there for You, whether from here in OR Tn. or there in CA. with You Larry T Robinson OR Tn.
Larry…finally another voice of reason in the sea of madness that is hollwierd and its partner in grime,the trashloid media.let me add my two-cents worth:in her first dui accident,there are no witnesses who SAW her driving,just a grainy video of her running away.ronson and the mystery male who were ‘passengers’ probably won’t testify that she was driving since it is a misdemeanor case,not a court trial.the only way the cops can show she was driving is if they show pics or x-rays of steering wheel bruises on her chest.unlikely,since the condition of the car after the wreck was not consistent with big injuries and the airbags didn’t explode,hence it was a low-speed impact.they will drop the drug charge in this dui in favor of the clearly-in-possession charge in the second dui.she is screwed on the felony drug charge,but once again,the cops have no video or pics of her,behind the wheel,in the second dui,just the ‘word’ of three seedy looking glory hounds,out to make a buck,DUH!!! i find it odd that the santa monica cops didn’t take these three clowns to the station to take their statements if Lindsay had ‘commandeered’ their vehicle against their wishes and led them on an anti-o.j. 100 mph highway chase,LOL. anyone with half a brain and an ounce of common sense can see that these clowns are out to make a few dollars.ah,the almighty buck…anyway,she will probably get out of one of the duis,but not the second drug charge-hopefully this will be her wake-up to reality and set her on the road to recovery,for her sake and ours,as fans of the one and only,Lindsay Lohan.btw,i am NOT condoning her drunkedness or alleged drunk-driving/drug-addicted antics,just that you are presumed innocent until proven guilty as per the constitution,same as the case with nfl dude,michael vick,a fair trial,people.whatever she is found guilty or not guilty of,i sincerely hope that she gets the help she so desperately needs,and returns to the silver screen someday.peace
Linds is gonna get broke what with all these rehabbing, car crash, arrest (the bail), partying, alcohol, drugging
If she gets broke man, it might be the only situation – that way Linds could finaly distinguish who are true friends and the ones who are not.
I saw Georgia Rule last night (it just came out in my country) and it was heartbreaking how the movie sucked. HEr portrayal was good, of course, but the plot and the script writing???! She should choose better movies because I heard I Know Who Killed Me sucks and besides, she is losing her many fans.
LINDSAY,why(IF THOSE WERE REALLY SOMEONE ELSE PANTS YOU HAD ON WITH COKE IN THEM)would you still be INVOLVED with people who do DRUGS?
LINDSAY, why (OUT OF THE THREE GUYS THERE)did you have 2 PUT THE BLAME ON THE BLACK GUY ONLY?
elizabeth…i am confused,since several days ago you said in your comment that you were NO longer a fan.why are you still hanging around?i would hate to have you as a friend if your going to abandon me in the rock-bottom phase of my addiction.a true friend or fan sticks around,through the good times and bad,because in the end,that person is truly worth saving if you called yourself a friend or fan.in my case,i am both a fan and a friend,in that while our meeting was brief when she said hi and signed my magazine in 2005,she has done nothing to damage my view of her professionally,and i wish i could say or do something to help her personal problems.since i can’t,i have supported her by seeing her latest movie,I Know Who Killed Me,which i liked by the way.are you now a hater if you aren’t a fan?please respond,elizabeth…peace
Elizabeth — re: “She should choose better movies”
I agree — however I believe that it was her non-coercive, sensitive, absoultely NOT-in-it-for-the-money “manager” “mom” (neither?) who was pushing Lindsay into that one — not so much her choice — possibly?
are you people nuts? Lindsay took the Georgia Rule role and this horror/thriller role to shake off the disney typecast that her manager/mother saddled her with.while i still love those disney movies,they are younger roles and would have condemned her to the meg ryan goodie two-shoes typecast hell that her mother wanted for her.dina said in an interview years back that she wanted Lindsay in ’safe’ roles/movies.are you kidding me,momager??? THIS GIRL CAN ACT and you would limit her to ’safe’ material?! maybe dina should step away from the bowl!!! in I Know Who Killed Me,a great little B-movie by the way,dakota,the dancer,refers to her mother as a ‘pathetic crackhead’,hmmm…i would love to see this tour de force of acting,miss Lindsay Lohan,in many genres of movies to showcase her immense talent,but first,shes gotta get clean,and get a stranglehold on those demons.please,miss Lindsay,get the help you so desperately need.i am still behind you 110 percent;i don’t know about everyone else,especially the fairweather fans.lindsays friend…i usually agree with your comments but this one,what are you saying?to me,you are out in left field somewhere.what gives?respond…peace
I hope these guys that want to sue Lindsay will be exposed as liars and that they have to pay themselves or do time.
I also hope that Lindsay will get through this stronger
but not cynical. Even if her career maybe damaged beyond repair.(I hope not that last one of course!)
I still love her.
sorry dave, can’t help it I am still in love with her!!!! And btw, I NEVER Said that she couldn’t act!!! Come on, people, it’s reall hard to let my hopes down on someone I waited to recover for so long.
IT’S SO HARD. I don’t know what to think about the sitch! Besides, I don’t want someone like her to be fanless. She’s still pretty – only not the same persona anymore.
Oh yeah, PS. I only said that I wasn’t a fan out of the gist of emotions. And don’t worry, I don’t hate on people. Why would I waste my time defending her FROM haters if I would recklessly turn into one.
I am still a fan – a sad sad sad one. I just think that she really needs to put her mind on recovering for that to happen, something REALLY HUGE would have to happen. I have a solution in mind: If her Hollywood career gets to waste NOW, she would realize that she needs to ditch her friends and stop the alcohol/drugs and then after a few years, she will/SHALL make a comeback.
dave: see my comment on “Lindsay’s Side of the Story” comment on my question please…
and also, dave: it is immature as in VERY immature that you asked if I was a hater.
That’s all.
Sorry for the consecutive posts, I am heartbroken with these news.
Do you believe this? http://thebosh.com/archives/2007/07/poor_lindsay_lohan_owes_her_drug_dealer_over_30000.php
and I also heard that Linds is MISSING? I heard they haven’t seen her in days? is that true? I think so since I haven’t seen pics of her lately
elizabeth….i appreciate your honesty and i can accept your criticism if you think i am immature for asking if you have become a hater.my frame of mind when i read your comment several days ago,was somewhat still in shock over this mess,and add to that,so many negative comments from random haters that just appeared on this fabuLLous site immediately after that tragic night.i just wanted to see if the long-time fans were staying faithful and your comment appeared to show you as a fairweather fan.anyway,i like how you said ‘can’t help it,i still love her’;yes,she does have that effect on people.i only met her for five minutes when she signed my magazine in 2005,and i am still in love with her,personal turmoil and all.what really upsets me about a lot of the fans that comment on here,is that you’ll hardly ever talk about her movies,music,photoshoots,future projects,etc,instead its always about her personal life,of which you know nothing about other than the constant barrage of trashloid media ’stories’,rumors,half-truths,tmz stooge liars,and the multitude of individuals in hollywierd that want to bring her down and will do and say anything to cast her in a bad light.as far as i am concerned,her personal life is her business,and i am still a huge fan of Lindsay,due to the appeal of her movies,music,etc,not to mention my image of her from those movies.i would love to see her singing and dancing in a movie,hope the tango movie producers give her another chance.btw,elizabeth,that 30,000 drug story is a crock,and she is probably in a lockdown rehab like betty ford,not ‘missing’.the country singer,keith urban,was in a 90 day lockdown rehab and nobody knew he was there untill about 35 days in,hmmm…anyway,you have got to apply the two minute rule to anything you see on the net,duh!! the net is a hater paradise,full of distortions and half-truths,not to mention straight-up lies.peace
dave — I appreciate your support of Lindsay’s career — movies, photoshoots, etc. True — I do not know her personally, and true, I do not really know any of the details of her personal life — nor would I really want to — at least not outside of a personal relationship — and certainly not within a public post such as this. However, the human experience has a number of common elements about which we can be empathetic. While not knowing the details, one can gain enough from the news to fairly well deduce that she is in a very difficult position, going through some difficult situations. For some of us our hearts have been “wired” in to loving Lindsay as a person — kind of hard to explain — but I want her to know — and believe — that there are some of us who know that she is simply human — just like us — talented, yes, but not perfect. And that we know that people don’t have to be perfect to be loved — and that she is loved just for who she is — no matter WHAT!
Lindsay — you need to know the freedom of KNOWING you are loved for who you are as a person — not only who you are as an actress! It starts with knowing The One Who Loves us that way — ALWAYS! It is His love that we know — and it is His love with which we love you!
( …but we do love you as an actress too!
)
Please stay hidden, resting, and getting better — REALLY better!
As Always, your Affectionate Fan
i love you,lindsay.get well,girl
Dave you seem worried about fairweather fans so I just want to say that I’ll never give up on Lindsay. I will stay with her for better or for worse. There has never been a doubt in my mind about that.
Bowman…thanks for your continued support of this troubled yet highly talented young lady.i see the transparent intentions of these clowns and their singular purpose of making a few dollars off their ‘emotionally stressful joyride of death’,LOL.i wonder if the TWO males who were in the truck are even two of these three seedy-looking characters.you know,the cops can’t comment on the details of the investigation,and obviously Lindsay is in no condition to defend herself,so what are we to believe??? some street thugs that tmz cooked up a ’story’ with?!LOL. these three scumbags should be countersued for slander and false statements,as well as those tmz numbskulls.i just hope that she makes it through all of this crap and gets back on track.heres a little hope for you true fans;under california law,anyone busted with coke,as long as they can prove it was for their own use(a small amount like Linds had),can enter a drug diversion program,stay clean and pass it,and have the felony charge erased at end of probation period.if she is serious about getting clean,this legal out could help her image and career,but shes got to put in the effort to clean up her toxic lifestyle.i still have plenty of misdemeanors on my record from my out-of-control alcoholism,but felonies are what really hurt you careerwise.fortunately,i never killed anyone or got popped with drugs.i hope that Lindsay is getting the help she so desperately needs,and that the courts sentence helps on her road to recovery.still my favorite movie star,and best of health and luck with your legal issues.peace
My sentiments exactly.
bowman,harry s…thanks,guys,good to know that there are fans who still have her back,not that i ever doubted you both,just wanted to hear some reassuring responses during this current low spot in her career and personal life.peace
You ALL Know where I stand. Love You Always Lindsay Lohan, God Bless You Always, from ME Larry T Robinson OR Tn.
I just want to say I will always believe in you Lindsay. You are a good and special person. Don’t ever doubt that. You will get through this. Hope all is well. Get better soon. Thank you for everything. Bye!
joseph robert: i think the same way as you do, i also think lindsay is an especial person, that’s the reason why i feel so interested in her and that’s also why I haven’t given up on her and never will.
plz get better soon Lindsay, im gonna dedicate this song to you:
Beautiful Life (la bella vita) – Lindsay Lohan
God wont talk to me
I guess she’s pretty busy lately
I like to believe
She’s listening
I’m starting to feel
All of my bruises imagined or real
I’ll get through each day
dig through the bad ones
To get to the good ones
Who’s keeping score anyway
And this is my beautiful life
the only thing certain is everything changes
Lows and the highs
And all those goodbyes
As hard as it get’s I know it’s still is amazing
To be alive
It’s a beautiful life
I talk in my sleep
That’s the one place i know no one can hear me
I tell my self things
Don’t walk in the shadows, there’s always tommorow
And I’m right where i want to be
And this is my beautiful life
The only thing certain is everything changes
Lows and the highs
And all those goodbyes
As hard as it get’s I know it’s still amazing
To be alive
Oh it hurts while it’s happening, I want to feel everything
How can you know til’ you try?
And this is my beautiful life
My beautiful life
Only thing certain is everything changes
Lows and the highs
And all those goodbyes
As hard as it get’s I know it’s still amazing
To be alive
It’s a beautiful life
Naty: Thanks so much for your message! It really meant a lot to me. Take care.
First of all, it frightens me how many of you are going to stick up for her and claim that it was “Unlawful search and unlawful arrest”. I hope to God that none of you is ever arrested because your knowldge of the legal system is wacked.
If the officer reasonably suspects that you are involved in CRIMINAL ACTIVITY (SUCH AS FOLLOWING/STALKING SOMEONE) he can perform a pat down. And if the police officer has probable cause — a reasonable basis or justification to believe that you or your passengers are involved in criminal activity — they can search your car and objects belonging to passengers.
Your car may also be searched if you or ANY OCCUPANT IS ARRESTED.
So folks, it didnt matter whether she was driving or not…she had cocaine in her pants! And she is insulting every single American out there who actually believes that they were someone elses pants and she had NO IDEA they were in her pocket. We’re not as stupid and reckless as she is and [remainder deleted by moderator]
Not.
prison awaits person…you need to remove your hate-inflated head from your butt and actually READ the comments before you spit your vitriol.i never said anything contradicting the drug bust,numbskull,and i said that she was screwed on the drug charge,since it was on her person,whether it was hers or not.i did say that she was NOT pulled over for drunk driving,the cops found her out of the vehicle,when they arrived on the scene.i was also saying that we don’t really know who was driving,since these three tmz jackals could be lying,and the 911 tape clearly mentions a male in the vehicle,no mention of a female,hmmm…anyway,look past your blind hatred of Lindsay and her fans,and get your ‘facts’ straight so you look a little less stupid in the grand scheme of things,or whatever.wanker.peace
I really aprecciate that people like
Rachel Rule:dave must visit LG.com often, Joseph Robert, Larry R, Harry S, Lindsay’s Friend, Elizabeth, and ofcourse ME, are all supporting this espcial girl named Lindsay Lohan, i hope she gets our prayers and she realizes that she is not alone in this world, she’s got us, people who really care about her, and ever will.
maybe she doesn’t know us, but some day, will be hanging out with her and making her feel happy about herself and her life……, who knows, this can be actually true, God will tell….
take care u all, and don’t give up on people who you love!
i hope you read our comments Lindsay and your own songs (one i posted before specially), plz get back on track i luv ya
xoxoxoxox
Dear “Prison Awaits”:
Why on Earth would you “hope” that Lindsay Lohan’s career will be “ruined”? There are indeed allegations and charges she will have to confront and she may in fact have misbehaved. But shouldn’t we wait until all the facts are in and she has had a chance to respond before passing judgment? Isn’t it likely that her attorney has told her not to comment to preserve all her rights? Shouldn’t we at least hear Lindsay Lohan’s side of the story before condemning her?
Look at this another way. Let’s assume the absolute worst. Let’s assume she was driving while intoxicated with a suspended license, knowingly had drugs in her possession, drove like a lunatic, and said some nasty and false things. Is that bad? You bet. To what extent was her conduct attributable to alcohol or drug dependency? None of us really knows. Would this mean she needs assistance? Quite probably. But why would any of this be a reason to want her career to end?
If memory serves me right, Lindsay Lohan just recently turned 21. My daughter, who is only a few years her junior, gets nervous as hell any time she has to get up in front of an audience. Having observed at close range the pressures experieced by “normal” teenage girls (i.e., my daughter and her friends), I can barely imagine the pressures Ms. Lohan has had to confront. If her personal life got screwed up in the mix, how can any of us be surprised? Can we really expect that teenagers will go to Hollywood, become movie stars, and all act and behave just the way “normal” teenagers do (whatever that is)?
Let’s face it, fans (myself included) are selfish. We like to see good movies with talented performers. If some film characters are teenagers or young adults, it means some of the performers will have to be young as well. Can these performers have the same “normal” life afforded to other children and young adults? Aren’t we, in effect, asking young performers such as Lindsay Lohan to live an unusual lifestyle so that we can have fun at the movies, perhaps at their expense? Could “The Parent Trap,” “Freaky Friday,” Mean Girls,” and other such films have been made with actors and actresses who went to normal schools and stayed home?
So please give Lindsay Lohan a break. If she screwed up, there is a legal system which will sort things out, with due regard (we may hope) for any impairments from which she may suffer. Yes, her fans question some of the allegations. Yes, her fans think she is getting a raw deal in the media. Yes, her fans hope that at least some of the charges will turn out to be false. But can’t we all agree that Lindsay Lohan is talented and has brought happiness to the lives of many moviegoers? Can’t we all agree that having her back on the screen at the top of her game would be a plus for everyone? Can’t we all agree that, at age 21, Lindsay Lohan might have many decades of great performances yet to share with us? Can’t we all agree, even making the worst possible assumptions about her behavior, that, like every other young person, she should be given a chance to grow up?
So please don’t “hope” that Lindsay Lohan’s career will be “ruined.” If you are hoping that justice is done, that is fine. If you are hoping that she gets help, that is fine. But please join Lindsay Lohan’s fans in hoping that, once this entire mess gets sorted out, she has the chance to work her magic for us for many years to come.
Ken
Right ON Ken !!! I agree wholeheartedly !! And Prison Awaits, it was ME who said the Unlawfull Arrest and Unlawfull search stemming therefrom. In many countries around the world, if the Police force in that country thinks it wants you dead, they just shoot you and justify it later, sometimes with the most outrageous lies imaginable !! and no one ever questions it, lest they be next. HERE IN AMERICA, we have certain hedges to police powers, to hopefully cutdown on and prevent police power abuse, thus laws are enacted, and certain very specific restrictions are put on quote ” What Constitutes….” fill in the blank, In this case it actually ALL depends on the wording of the Arrest report, if the wording is DUI, not Suspicion of DUI, things change instantly. If it is suspicion, they still have to prove that she was indeed the driver, behind the wheel, because she was NOT at the time the Police arrived on the scene!! thats part of the qualifier of ‘what constitutes’ …..in this case DUI, it doesn’t MATTER what “I” Believe, or anyone else believes including YOU you idiot. It only matters in the Finer Points of the LAW, what can be established, in this case all accounts, including police reports, she was NOT driving at the time of the police arrival on scene, and wasn’t even in the CAR/VEHICULE this is a critical point, for a Lawyer of Blair’s caliber. As you either DON’T know this stuff or are deliberately overlooking it and hoping we are to dumb to know it either, I have set you right, so you know that WE know, and you can’t fool us any longer with half truths. and HATE. “And what will you do NOW dear” . So to the rest it is ALL in the wording of the Arrest record, as to whether Lindsay will be gotten as it were for DUI, and \ or the Drug charge, maybe one but NOT the other, yes that is a possibility, Depends on the legality of the search, which was by ALL accounts NOT DONE AT THE SCEENE, but later at the police station !! AFTER SHE WAS ARRESTED, meaning the offical reason for the escort to the police station, and BEFORE THE BOOKING !! this complicates things a WHOLE LOT whether any of you know it or not. The police set themselves up for a messy court case, unless they wish to dismiss the charges due to lack of substantial corroborating real evidence. Could happen, would be funny if they did, EGG on face and all that, but COULD happen. She could face court mandated drug program, based on the finding of the controlled substance, but that is probably going to be the extent of it. I say again it could all blow away. Love You Always Lindsay Lohan, God Bless You Always from ME Larry T Robinson OR Tn
Oh and just so’s you know, I could be wrong, I am willing to admit that, because I haven’t seen the actual wording of the Arrest Document. But you can bet even money that Blair, has and is preparing a kick ass defence. YOU GO Blair !!
larry…well said,couldn’t agree more with your thoroughly well-constructed comment.i just wanted to add that there is a story floating around that the santa monica cops who responded to the 911 call had their dashboard camera running when they pulled into the parking lot of the civic center.how true this is,i do not know.also,the whole incident may have occured on private property if this civic center is not city owned.hmmm…peace
