Lindsay Lohan will soon be hanging around a bunch of stiffs.
The 21-year-old actress has been ordered to take part in a special program at the Los Angeles County morgue as part of her punishment for drunken driving.
“She will not touch any bodies,” said morgue spokesman Ed Winter. But “she’ll see firsthand what’s going on.”
That should be a life-changing experience for the “Mean Girls” star and the other drunkards participating in the county’s Hospital and Morgue program.
The program is designed to show offenders what could happen to them and others if they continue to drink and drive.
“It could be homicides, street racing, drunk driving,” Winter said. “We take the entire class where autopsies are going on and in the crypts where [the corpses] are photographed and the deceased are processed - fingerprinted, undressed, prepared for autopsy.”
Lohan, who in recent years has become infamous for her hard-partying ways, will spend two four-hour days at a morgue. She also will work for two days in an ER, where once again she will see upclose the damage and pain caused by drunken driving.
She also must spend two months in rehab and complete several hours of community service to fulfill the terms of her plea bargain.
A wild child from Long Island, Lohan was arrested twice last year on DUI charges. She pleaded guilty in August to misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges.
She has served a grand total of 84 minutes in jail as part of the plea deal.
