The Prosecutor will decide how aggressively to go after Lindsay. So we shall see, but it seems like she could avoid jail . . . .

There are two issues here. First, she needs to begin her recovery. Second, she needs to pay her debt to society for the crimes committed. Chances are she cannot recover in jail. So, if recovery is the goal, then jail is not going to achieve that.
In the end, I am still predicting the six months because she has two DUI's, one (possibly two) felony (I think) possession charges. Plus, the limelight on this case is extreme. So, any slack she might have been cut IMO is not going to be there.
But, time will tell and IMO six months is fair and from what I have read consistent with similar sentences.
