I'd try my hardest to get out to. I woudl haev learned my lesson in thoes 3 days, swore to enver drink again, and tried my best to get the hell out. She probably did not learn her lesson, but we dont know for sure.
I cant blame her for getting out, if given the option, noone woudl say...Ya know, I did bad, I deserve to be punished, Id rather stay in jail and serve my due time.
Nah. Anyone woudl try to get out. She just succeeded. I only hope she learned her lesson and can be more responsible in the future. Only time wil tell.

^^^

Agree 100%

I have no problem with her trying her hardest to cut her sentence short. The world works just fine with everyone (even celebrities) trying to work out the best deal they can, and as I said, I do have empathy for her as a person. Maybe she learned her lesson even.

And what you wrote about "Only time will tell"... nothing could be more insightful ;)

I guess my brain is weird. I really don't object to her getting out early. My concern is more with the system. A part of me thinks a 45 day sentence should, somehow, work out to say at least 2-3 weeks. I guess I find it scary in a way that a 45 day sentence can end up being 3 days, but this is not Paris' fault or her lawyers. If there is a problem here, it's with the system, not with Paris maximizing her outcome.

I think it's unfortunate that some people take delight in Paris being punished just because she is rich and famous.

If u think she should have got jail because of her crime then fine, that's fair enough. But if the reason you thought she should go to jail or the reason that you took so much pleasure in it is because she was born into a life of priviledge and wealth then that's sad.

Who wouldn't want that sort of wealth if they had the opportunity?

I take delight in her being punished not because she is rich and famous, but because she is rich and famous and she did NOTHING to earn it, yet she flaunts it like crazy.

I applaud the rich and famous who DESERVE it. She is not in that category.

If our society was a meritocracy, Paris Hilton would be living in a tin shack.

So you take delight in her being punished simply because of what she was born into?? Something she had absolutly no say in whatsoever.

How exactly do you earn being born into a wealthy family??

Not BECAUSE she was born into it, but because she flaunts it. She acts as if she deserved it. Did you hear the comments she made about "public school kids?" She acts as though she deserves her life when in reality she deserves nada. Zip.

So yes, this is a little bit of schadenfreude for me. Or it was until she bought her way out of jail.

I just hope her celebrity takes a nose dive after this fiasco. How she even got it in the first place still puzzles me.

what i think is gonna happen is someone is going to be so angry about her getting out and they wil take justice in there own hands and kick her ass.
the cops will probably be watching her every move and if and when she fucks up they will arrest her.
so since she didn't have to stay so far in jail what does this mean for lohan and richie and there convictions?

...So yes, this is a little bit of schadenfreude for me. Or it was until she bought her way out of jail. There is a new hearing, this morning, I believe, to determine whether or not Paris will have to return to jail. Rocky Delgadillo, the Los Angeles City Attorney, had to do this due to all the angry phone calls & emails his office received.

There is to be a determination, iirc, as to whether the Sheriff of Los Angeles County, Lee Baca, should be held in contempt of court for how the situation with Paris was handled.

Unfortunately, like it or not, and I don't, Paris and her family have enough money to cause all kinds of problems for L.A. County if they so choose. The speculation I've heard as to the medical reasons involved for her home confinement were possible anxiety attacks, or even panic attacks. If she really did have a nervous breakdown from the incarceration, after the Sheriff's Dept. had received such information from her psychologist/psychiatrist, the family could very well sue the county. And they have enough money that they might actually prevail in such a civil suit. Can the county afford a few million in punitive damages, should her family prevail in a civil suit?

The Sheriff's Dept. was probably attempting to avoid just such a scenario of putting county funds at risk, but depending upon whether they send her back or not, who knows what will finally happen?

CNN news says with extensive consultation with medical professionals they decide to let her out. And her privacy was compromised.

I'm sorry, but if total strangers have watched you have sex and there is video footage of you calling someone a fire crotch floating around out there, your privacy is LONG gone. :O

My probation had clearly stated that if I violated it, I'd spend 6 months in jail, no questions. And it was only for a misdemeanor. Paris' sentence wasn't that uncommon, no matter what that article said. (Because articles are totally honest and there's no possible way those people could be payed off to say certain things ;) )

Oh, fuuuuuuck herrrrrrrr. I'm pretty sure all those other female inmates suffer from anxiety, too. They are in PRISON. It isn't a country club. That she is feeling anxious isn't an unusual circumstance---it's part and parcel of the whole prison thang. Suck it up, Paris. Being allowed to carry out the rest of the sentence in her cushy mansion is not the same thing as being incarcerated. Hopefully, the judge will put her back where she belongs---isn't the hearing today taking place in front of the same judge that sentenced her? At the very least, it seems the level of disgust for Paris has increased so dramatically that she may soon be nothing but an unpleasant memory. She isn't really anything but a racist, classist pseudo-celebrity with zero talent and obvious entitlement issues. She needs to serve the rest of her sentence like any of us would have to do--there is nothing special about Paris.

But now the latest rumor going around is she was sent to home detention by the Sheriff's Department because they were afraid she might off herself. Although I can't imagine Paris fashioning a shiv out of whatever material to slit her own wrists.

Oh, good lard----do they send home every inmate who is suicidal? No, they do not. I worked in the corrections system for years with young offenders---if an inmate is suicidal, they get put on suicide watch---not sent home. What a load of poo.

I'm delighted she's free. She didn't really do anything wrong. She didn't hurt anybody.

She was driving "drunk", but hurt nobody. The legal limit is totally arbitrary and even if we say drunk driving is not a good idea, until you do damage to somebody or their propety, you should still qualify as innocent until proven guilty of some injury to another person.

And she was caught driving with a suspended license 3 times. I applaud her for her defiance of the State. I see nothing at all wrong with that.

Go Paris!

Don't be haters cuz she's hotter than you guys.

Lots of sober drivers kill people everyday. Should everybody be jailed pre-emptively to prevent automobile accidents? Your line of reasoning just justifies a police state.

Sure, accidents happen. But to operate a 1-2 tonne peice of steel while you have your motor functions impaired because of drugs or alcohol is no accident. I hardly call that a police state. Are you deliberately being obtuse? I think yes. Now scoot, you rascal! Let the grownups talk.

Watching one of the entertainment shows just a couple of hours ago one of the rumored reasons she was sent home was that she was going through drug withdrawls and experiencing mental anguish.

::)

Talking with people here there were actually bets going on as to how many days she would actually serve...it was already a joke up here...and everyone I talked to knew she was getting out and going to get house arrest. Pretty bad when the "genereal public" already knows the score before the game even gets started.

Since I am someone who has experience with both the correctional system and have family members struck down by drunk drivers I feel she should have served her term without "special treatment".

They do have medical "wards" in prisons where female inmates give birth, go through DT's, get medication administered for everything from diabeties to AIDS. So the medical excuse is a joke. Staph infections are rampant in hospitals as much if not moreso than jails so again this doesn't wash with me.

Suicide watch and mental health professionals are called in for those exhibiting distress and if need be the inmate is taken to a mental ward within the prison or transfured to a mental treatment facility.

My cousin who was hit head on by a drunk driver 30 years ago is still suffering today and has lost most of the use of her hand for which medical science has never been able to help her with. In a way it is a physical limiting life sentance she is forced to serve when she did nothing to deserve it.

Here in Canada a DUI is a criminal offense and as such gives those convicted a criminal record limiting travel out of country. Canadian punishments are below.

The minimum punishments for impaired driving or driving over 0.08% are:

For the first offence: $600 fine, 1-year driving prohibition; or jail time
For the second offence: 14 days jail, 2-year driving prohibition
For the third or subsequent offence: 90 days jail, 3-year driving prohibition.

In Ontario, a person convicted of a DUI must also complete an 8 month training course and install an ignition interlock device for a period of one year after the licence suspension.

Jail time can be imposed for high-range readings above 0.15%, even for first offences.

Foreigners with recent (in the past 5 years) drunk-driving criminal convictions are generally refused entry at the border.

Should Paris serve her time like normal citizens? Yes.

Did she make the judicial system of California look like a joke? Yes.

Are the comedians having a field day with this? You better believe it!!!

IMO Paris was born into money and no work ethic or responsibility and that has lead to her living outside of reality...where the rest of us live. The end result is money talks bullshit walks and Paris' bold words about "ready to serve her sentance and be a good example" prove meaningless.

Rather than talk to her PR Manager about the intial charges she should have consulted her lawyer and found out from him where she stood legally, and what her restrictions were...Dumb blonde moment???

I also find it bizzare that an heiress as herself with more money than brains could not call a cab or have a limo charter her around when she knew she had been drinking, or at least after being charged with the DUI.

What does this mean for Lindsay Lohan, and Brandi...who killed someone with her DUI charge??? A legal precident has "been set".

Just a big joke IMO....

I don't know Paris nor do I want to...not worth my time...I prefur women who have substance.

Well, besides the exception of a few uncalled for comments by Shot - I think we may have gotten past our lets bite everyones heads off that disagrees phase for a sec. Alot of us have very different opinions about this situation, and are voicing and discussing them honestly and un sugar coated to each other, but we are still being civil and hearing each other out before we reply, for the most part.

she was taken from court screaming that it wasnt fair and calling for her mother.

I almost feel sorry for her...for the first time in her life someone is forcing her to deal with the consequences of her actions. I have no doubt in my mind that if she is let out of this she will drive drunk again because..why not...nothing TOO bad will happen to her...and next time she might end up like Rebbeca Gayhart or Brandi and actually kill someone.

Yeah that was BS...figure out the punishment..make her do it and get over it. Changing it around every other day is NOT good for anyone. It makes it worse for her(and while I think she should serve her time and take her punishment..thats enough..dont fuck with her, thats not fair) and it makes the court system look like a joke.

She drank and drove, she ignored the terms of her probation (she says she was misinformed, but I think that is just a copout, and even if it is true she needs to be more responsible of her own shit), and now she has to pay the consequences. I don't know about the judge's decision to switch it back to serving a 45 day term, but...hopefully this will be a wake-up call for Paris and it will teach her that ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES and that if she can't do the time, she shouldn't do the crime.

The judge originally gave her 45 days, but she was to only serve 23 of the 45. The Sheriffs dept said for "medical" reasons they wanted to put her on home arrest. However, they did not go through the proper procedures and steps for this to happen, and the sheriff took it in to his own hands by letting her do so. The sheriffs decision came back to bite him in the ass since he didnt file the paperwork he was supposed to and didnt have it heard in court before they moved to her home, which is why they were back in court today. Then when the judge was on the way to the hearing this morning, HE hears on the radio that Paris will be calling in, not physically there, which was told to all of the press when they were waiting to get in to the court room for the hearing. This too, was never okay'd either. So the judge sits in his chambers for 2 hours waiting for her to show up for what should have been a 9am hearing. So you know that pissed the judge off too. The reporters that were in the court room said that the judge stated just before he ordered her back to jail, that the Sheriffs dept nor her counsel had still provided him with anything to prove she needed to serve her time at home. So he then ordered her back to jail, to serve the full 45, with 5 days reduced for time served. She can appeal this still, though she will be sitting in jail while the appeal happens, but if they want to get her home, they need to provide and prove the "medical" reasons why she should be so it can be considered by the court.

She should just be thankful she's never gotten charge with a felony for all the coke she does. She's done more than enough illegal things in her life to earn 45 days in jail. I know more than one person who got 6 months, no questions asked, for violating probation. Like (I think it was CorsicaFire) said up there. She'll live.

Usually, jail can get you OUT of a spiral of self-destruction, humble you and make you more careful about the choices you make.

I'm glad she's back in jail. This whole fiasco was really making our justice system look like more of a mockery than it already is.

I was already envisioning paparazzi photos of her sunbathing in her pool. ::)
