LiLo rejects rehab deal, taking chances at trial: report

Lindsay Lohan has reportedly rejected a rehab plea bargain that would have kept her out of jail, opting to instead take her chances at trial.

Why? Lohan reportedly thinks she's innocent and doesn't have a problem with battling in court.

Lohan's attorney Mark Heller has been busy trying to hammer out a plea deal with Santa Monica and LA City prosecutors this week regarding her June car crash case.

TMZ reports today that prosecutors insisted that the troubled starlet should accept a significant amount of time in a residential rehab facility instead of jail time. They were reportedly even willing reduce the 60 days they initially wanted her in rehab to 30 days but Heller still refused. A source told TMZ, "negotiations are ongoing."

Almost to be expected, Heller and his troubled client don't seem to be on the same page.

He's reportedly willing to settle for a deal that involves counseling and possibly some sort of rehab. Heller has suggested to prosecutors that the actress serve as a motivational speaker and perform non-jail activities to resolve her latest criminal case, according to a letter to the court.

But as a source tells TMZ, to Lohan it sounds like "punishment for something I didn't do."

Lohan is charged with lying to police regarding her June car crash and for violating her probation in a previous theft case as a result. If convicted she could face 245 days in jail.

In the end, prosecutors are reportedly not that worried they can't strike a plea bargain and are willing to take their chances too, during a trial set to start on March 18.
