The Betty Ford Center technician who has accused Lindsay Lohan of assaulting her has been fired from the clinic.
As both People and TMZ have reported, chemical technician Dawn Holland lost her job after speaking to TMZ about the alleged conflict between she and Lohan, one that sparked a battery investigation by police. The reason for the termination: Holland violated the center's patient confidentiality rules. (Probably should have seen that coming.)
TMZ also has posted video of Holland offering more details about what supposedly happened on Dec. 12. Her account claims that Lohan and two other patients snuck out of Betty Ford to go drinking. After getting caught, Holland says, Lohan refused to take a breathalyzer, got belligerent and allegedly sprained Holland's arm in the process.
Lohan, meanwhile, disputes the whole story and says Holland attacked her. Happy holidays, everyone.

Sorry for comment duplication; WaPo comment function was running sluggishly (probably too much, forgive the expression, Christmas partying).

The first rule of working rehab is you don't talk about rehab.
