The Trucker Lindsay Hit Was Bankrupt In 2011!

And the plot thickens...

While Lindsay Lohan could be in a whole new heap of trouble for lying to police and claiming she wasn't behind the wheel of her rented Porsche when it crashed into an 18-wheeler last week on the PCH, the trucker himself James Johnson, has already hired an attorney to take legal action against the troubled actress...but his intentions for doing so may not be entirely truthful, either!

According to court documents from February 2011, he was forced to file bankruptcy, as his company JJ's Trucking was $57,000 in debt, and at the time, he only had $80 in cash, furniture worth $3500 and owed $10,000 on his Ford F150 truck!

Yeesh!

Clearly, someone has a reason to want to ca$h in on the circumstances in which he's found himself, given his recent - if not current - financial state!

But then again, Lindsay is obviously not innocent either, so it's hard to sympathize with everyone who takes advantage of her when she keeps putting herself in these RIDICULOUS scenarios.

Stay tuned, we're sure this one will be getting VERY inneresting real soon.
