Matthew Wilder, the director of Lindsay Lohan’s new movie Inferno, told RadarOnline.com that he was banned from seeing the jailed actress and that he still hopes to start production on the film this fall.
Wilder – who is helming the project about the life of porn star Linda Lovelace – was turned away after attempting to visit Lohan at the Lynwood Correctional Facility.
“It was really frustrating because I wanted to see Lindsay in person on Saturday to try and lift her spirits,” he said. “I went down to Lynwood and filled in all the paperwork and waited in line for about 45 minutes only to be told at the last minute that I could not see her because she had used up all her visits. I immediately called her assistant, Eleanor, and she told me that she would in fact not be able to see anybody which was really frustrating. • Read full story…

The American Civil Liberties Union is using Lindsay Lohan’s term in a Lynwood jail to hammer home the group’s concerns about the L.A. County jail system.
“We know that going to jail is scary. But we can assure you that your experience at the women’s facility in Lynwood, outside Los Angeles, is likely to be starkly different from the thousands of others serving time and awaiting trial in the Los Angeles jails,” the ACLU of Southern California wrote in an open letter to Lohan posted on its website.
When the actress began her 90-day sentence for violating the terms of her probation on a 2007 driving-under-the-influence conviction, sheriff’s officials said they expected her to serve at least 13 days, which would bring her release date to Aug.1 at the earliest.
The ACLU letter cited various complaints made by inmates about conditions at the jail, saying some female inmates are treated in “sub human” ways.
The letter concludes: “Lindsay, even though it’s going to be difficult for you to be incarcerated even for a few weeks, rest assured that your celebrity is something that we who frequently visit Los Angeles’s jails see as an opportunity to draw attention to conditions in the jails. You will have a window into the world of Los Angeles jails, and we hope you will use it to talk to the press about conditions here.”

Lindsay Lohan doesn’t have to worry about loneliness while she’s at Lynwood Correctional Facility — because TMZ has learned she’s had a steady stream of visitors who aren’t family or friends.
Besides her attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, we’re told Lindsay also spent some time with her probation officer over the weekend, and several other “professionals” connected to her case have come by as well.
LiLo burned up her weekly allotted time for personal visits, so it’s professionals or nothing for her until tomorrow — her one week anniversary of being in the hole.
By the way, Lindsay never got a copy of “The Old Man and the Sea” — the book she desperately wanted to read during her stay in jail.
Eh, wouldn’t have taken up more than a few hours anyway.

Tomorrow, here in NYC, fans of Lindsay Lohan are supposed to (it’s hard to find definitive proof on the matter at this time, other than an email we received) attend a “Free Lindsay” rally tomorrow to support the “troubled starlet.” It will be hosted by James Oliver of Beach Bum Tanning Salon, who is primarily responsible for keeping the Lohan family so well sunned. The ceremony will begin with a press conference, and a ribbon will be tied around a building on 7th avenue that will say, “We love you Lindsay! Come home soon.” How’s that for ripping off the work of Christo and Jean-Claude so elegantly? • Read full story…

The actress’ lawyer claims LiLo is ‘doing fine’…
Lindsay Lohan has made friends with other inmates in jail, according to her lawyer.
The Mean Girls actress, who started her sentence at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California, last Tuesday has reportedly ‘grown close’ to her peers in prison after settling in.
Despite reports she was being ‘taunted’ by fellow prisoners, her lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley told USmagazine.com: “She is doing fine. She has made some friends.”
Regardless of LiLo ‘making friends’ in jail, she could only serve 9 days of her original 90-day sentence she was given for breaching terms of her probation for a DUI offence back in 2007.
Holley refused to confirm when the actress would be released stating: “I would like to ensure that she has received all the time credits to which she is entitled [from her previous time in custody]. I am hopeful that her sentence will be reduced once those credits are properly factored in.”
He added: “We are not asking for special treatment from the court or the sheriff, nor is she receiving special treatment.”
A prisoner from the jail where Lindsay is behind bars said recently that: “Lindsay was crying when she came in. She was handcuffed but seemed calm. We all started saying, ‘God bless you Lindsay,’ and saying, ‘Hi’ to her and then she smiled at us.”
Reports also suggest that Lohan’s ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson visited her in prison at the end of last week.

Pretty Wild star Alexis Neiers – who was released from jail Friday after serving 30 days for burglarizing Orlando Bloom‘s home – says Lindsay Lohan wasn’t coping well in the slammer.
In an E! News interview airing Monday, Neiers says she crossed paths with the actress, 24, at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, Calif., but they never talked.
“I did see her … no words,” says the E! reality star, 19. “She had an officer with her at all times.”
Lohan was located in the cell next to Neiers’, but she was housed in “a separate pod,” she says. “We were in protective custody, so it’s not like anyone can get near you. I just saw her a couple times, and I really wish her the best.”
The actress — who is expected to be released before the end of the month — “looked a little down,” says Neiers. “But you’re in prison, you’re in jail, ya know?”
Hopefully the jail experience will be as eye-opening for Lohan as Neiers says it was for her.
“I wasted my life,” says Neiers, who still has to serve three years of probation and pay $600,000 in restitution. “And I found a lot of things I wanted to do in life, and I was able to strip away the negativity.”

When Lindsay Lohan gets out of jail she’ll head to rehab — almost immediately — but she won’t have to go far because we’ve learned Linds will get the court ordered 90-day treatment right here in California.
Sources close to LiLo say the plan is for her to enter a rehab facility somewhere in Cali so people in her camp can keep closer tabs on her progress.
Michael Lohan had lobbied for his daughter to enter a facility on Long Island, but we’re told that’s not going to happen.
Lindsay’s peeps most likely want to avoid a repeat of her 2007 rehab visit to Cirque Lodge in Utah. It’s a respected facility, but word is Lindsay treated it like a joke.

Still behind bars as she’s six days into her term for probation violation, Lindsay Lohan received the second visit of the weekend from lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley on Sunday (July 25).
Having already used up her two allotted personal visits, the “Machete” actress’ attorney turned up at the Century Regional Detention Facility to keep her high profile client up-to-date while also checking in on her well-being.
Commenting on Lindsay’s state of mind, Chapman Holley told Us magazine, “She is doing fine. She has made some friends.”
And while recent reports alleged that LiLo would be released by weekend’s end, insiders now tell that they believe she’ll be freed before the upcoming weekend.
As for claims that Miss Lohan is getting special treatment from jail workers, Chapman Holley said, “We are not asking for special treatment from the court or the sheriff, nor is she receiving special treatment.”

Lindsay Lohan has reportedly been brought to tears in jail, because her inmates have been calling her “fire crotch.” This actually sounds awful, made even worse by the dubious tale of her inmates “chanting” this nickname while she lays in her cell. One recently-released inmate explained: “Lindsay didn’t say nothing. She was crying though.”
Apparently the other girls are sick of seeing the starlet receive special treatment: “Like if she even moves, they put the whole facility on lockdown. It happens all the time,” a relative of an inmate explained. But with each teardrop she sheds, we know Lohan will come out of jail any day now, lessons, uh, learned the hard way: by being called a fire crotch. That’ll teach ‘er.
