I'm sure it was a rough FOUR DAYS for Paris...but they let her out of the pokey. You can read all about it here...
http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/06/07/paris.hilton/index.html
They cite "medical issues" as one of the causes of her release. I know I shouldn't care about what happens to her because she has no bearing on my life, but I just can't get past the fact at how this is a shining example of how the "system" DOESN'T work. I'm sorry...am I the only one that sees some very big flaws in the way this entire thing was handled? |

It came, it happened, it's done. The sooner people stop sensationalizing it, the sooner it will stop annoying everyone. System be damned, but it's the best one we have right now. |

maybe the medical situation was that they were afraid that a case of herpies would rapidly spread among the community?
I'm sorry, was that too much?  |

My god...she stopped eating, or better yet, REFUSED to eat jail-food. Slap on a medical issue, and she gets to spend the next 40 days at a Hilton resort where she can relax, sunbathe and well, just generally enjoy herself in her comfy home.
Girkon, you're right, we should leave this alone, but i really want to just go to California and stand in front of her house with a sign that says "Paris for Jailtime!"
Im sick and tired of the system around here...just because they're celebrities doesn't make them exempt from this stuff...they are citizens too, and they should be treated just like them. And if you think house arrest is a fair replacement for jailtime, think again for one of the richest women in the world...its NOTHING for her...in fact, its a vacation.
Maybe while she's at it, she can make another sex tape and toss that out to the public...that'll be interesting. |

Actually, the guy who let her out is taking some heat from the Courts now because he shouldn't have let her out, apparently. I hope they throw her (literally) back in.
Sciler - jokes involving Paris Hiton being "dirty" are NEVER too much.

Hilton Sent Back to Jail in Hysterics
By LINDA DEUTSCH
AP Special Correspondent
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Screaming and crying, Paris Hilton was escorted from a courtroom and sent back to jail Friday after a judge ruled that she must serve out her entire 45-day sentence behind bars rather than in her Hollywood Hills home.
"It's not right!" shouted Hilton, who violated her parole in a reckless driving case. "Mom!" she called out to her mother in the audience.
The 26-year-old hotel heiress was taken handcuffed from her home in a black-and-white police car, paparazzi sprinting in pursuit and helicopters broadcasting live from above. She entered the courtroom disheveled and weeping, hair askew, without makeup, wearing a fuzzy gray sweat shirt over slacks.
She cried throughout the hearing, dabbing her eyes, and her body shook constantly. Several times she turned to her parents, seated behind her in the courtroom, and mouthed, "I love you."
Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer was calm but apparently irked by Sheriff Lee Baca's decision to release Hilton three days into her sentence due to an unspecified "medical condition."
"I at no time condoned the actions of the sheriff and at no time told him I approved the actions," Sauer said. "At no time did I approve the defendant being released from custody to her home."
The hearing was requested by the city attorney's office, which had prosecuted Hilton and wanted Baca held in contempt for releasing Hilton despite Sauer's express order that she must serve her time in jail. The judge took no action on the contempt request.
A member of the county counsel's staff said Baca was willing to come to court with medical personnel. The judge did not take him up on the offer.
Assistant City Attorney Dan F. Jeffries argued that Hilton's incarceration was purely up to the judge. "Her release after only three days erodes confidence in the judicial system," he said.
Hilton's attorney, Richard Hutton, implored the judge to order a hearing in his chambers to hear testimony about Hilton's medical condition before making a decision. The judge did not respond to that suggestion.
Another of her attorneys, Steve Levine, said, "The sheriff has determined that because of her medical situation, (jail) is a dangerous place for her."
"The court's role here is to let the Sheriff's Department run the jail," he said.
The judge interrupted several times to say that he had received a call last Wednesday from an undersheriff informing him that Hilton had a medical condition and that he would submit papers to the judge to consider. He said the papers never arrived.
Every few minutes, the judge would interrupt proceedings, state the time on the clock, and note that the papers still had not arrived.
He also noted that he had heard that a private psychiatrist visited Hilton in jail, and he wondered if that person played a role in deciding her medical needs.
The last attorney to speak was another deputy city attorney, David Bozanich, who declared, "This is a simple case. There was a court. The Sheriff's Department chose to violate that order. There is no ambiguity."
As the final pitch was made for Hilton's further incarceration, her entire body began trembling. She clutched a ball of tissue and tears ran down her face.
Seconds later, the judge announced his decision: "The defendant is remanded to county jail to serve the remainder of her 45-day sentence. This order is forthwith."
Hilton screamed.
Eight deputies immediately ordered all spectators out of the courtroom. Hilton's mother, Kathy, threw her arms around her husband, Rick, and sobbed uncontrollably.
Deputies escorted Hilton out of the room, holding each of her arms as she looked back.

Good for the judge to stand up and put his foot down.
LOL @ Paris and her parents sobbing bcause she has to go to jail for the rest of her time.
Guess maybe she'll learn not to break the law from now on eh?

I feel sorry for her only in the fact of her being cuffed and taken from her home for the court appearance...she obiously didn't know what was going on or else she would have been dressed. They prolly pulled her out of bed.
But that judge is awesome for standing his ground. They effed up by putting her under house arrest and the judge didn't let it slide.
Paris needs to get over herself and deal. She's got a private cell where all she has to do is sit there...I'm sure she gets the max number of perks and comforts. She's too high profile a person to be allowed near the general pop in the jail. |
