I think the only reason she wen't to rehab the first time was because she realized she was up shit creek and either thought this would be a way out or would work in her favor. I really hope the District Attorney, the Judge and Jury see right through this. It maybe an illness but she needs to do some serious time. She put people lives in jeopardy.

Rehab is where rich people go to avoid going to jail. It's the first thing they do after getting arrested for anything. It's the time out country club where they can continue their life style while waiting for things to blow over.

Ever notice there is never a mention of the rehab organization. Whether its government run or private. Or the actual name of the institution. It's just referred to as rehab.

I've never heard of a single non celebrity being sent to rehab.
