Hooray for the Lindsay Lohan 911 Tape!

Lindsay Lohan 911 Call Tape

I was sitting at dinner with friends on Tuesday night, after a day of Lohan insanity, and we were talking about where this story was headed. “Well, there’s a 911 tape out there somewhere,” I told them, “and it’s only a matter of time before it’s on the Internet.”

And here it is.

Click here to listen. The tape is of the mother of Lohan’s assistant, Tarin Graham, telling police that a white GMC is following her.

Is it just me, you guys, or are 911 operators always dicks? The caller here is trying to give the guy the information, but the guy keeps cutting her off, like, “Ma’am, I need you to answer my questions.” But how the fuck is she supposed to answer his questions when he keeps cutting her off to yell at her for not answering the questions? I always seem to have this problem with emergency services — the people responsible for helping you out are so busy being important and demanding that they’re no help at all, and often it feels like they worsen the situation. Maybe they’re just trying to keep the situation calm by being forceful, but it seems like having the 911 guy yell at her is just making this woman more hysterical.

  • Ma’am, ma’am, ma’am, ma’am… I need to know where you are. Ma’am, where are you? Ma’am, what’s going on there? Ma’am, ma’am, ma’am, ma’am. Where are you? I need to know where you are to help you. Ma’am, hellooooo? Ma’am.

    Funny stuff, but you think you’d be more forth coming with the information if you think you’re in danger.

    Ma’am.

  • If I am so frightened that someone is following me that I call 911, why would I then pull over and talk to them rather than proceeding to the police station?

  • Well – according to the tape, it was a white GMC truck that was following them.. doesn’t LL drive a black mercedes convertible? didn’t i read something about how LL was following them, but was not involved in the case, showed up at the police station and was arrested just cause she was there?

    i’m sure being chased can be scary, but this lady was ridiculous.. i can understand the operators frustration – how could he help her if she couldn’t give him any information?

    i’m not naive by any means, but.. it makes sense how they could have arrested the wrong person, with the lack of communication and confusion caused by the hysterical mother.

  • well, it may sound like the 911 operators are allways being assholes, but trust me there is more to the job than being nice and sweet and polite to someone who needs help!

    people that need help allways freak out and give as much info as possiable in a matter of seconds and all that operator needs to know is where, what and when. thats it, notice that why is not in that top 3.

  • Even the 911 guy is getting tired of dealing with the celebtard antics and the looney people that hang out with them.
