She should just pretend she’s an illegal mexican. She wouldn’t fall under any laws.

Paris broke the law and deserves punishment, but some folks on this thread are being mean.

On Sept. 7, 2006 police arrested celebrity socialite Paris Hilton in Hollywood on suspicion of driving under the influence after she was spotted “driving erratically” while out to pick up a late-night burger.

Hilton was charged Sept. 26 with misdemeanor driving under the influence and on Jan. 9, 2007, her lawyers entered not guilty pleas on her behalf to a single count each of driving under the influence and driving with a blood-alcohol level of .08 or above.

Less than a week later, Hilton was pulled over again, this time by the California Highway Patrol. She was informed that her license was suspended in connection with the September DUI charge and she’d signed a document acknowledging she was not supposed to drive.

Hilton pleaded no contest Jan. 22 to a reduced charge of alcohol-related reckless driving. The pleas earned her three years of probation and a $1,500 fine. Hilton also was required by the courts to enroll in an alcohol education program.

A month later, Feb. 27, Hilton — still with a suspended license — was stopped by Los Angeles sheriff’s deputies for driving “a new Bentley” at 70 mph in a 35 mph zone “in darkness without her headlights on.” In her glove compartment was the document she’d signed Jan. 15, acknowledging she was not allowed to drive while her license was suspended.

Prosecutors Seek Paris Crackdown
Not amused, the Los Angeles city attorney’s office said March 29 that it would ask a judge to revoke the three-year probation sentence Hilton had received as a result of her January plea agreement.

On May 3 city prosecutors recommended that Hilton serve 45 days in jail for violating the conditions of her probation. They cited three terms of her probation that she’d violated: First, she failed to enroll in the alcohol education course within 21 days of her sentencing; Second, she had several traffic violations stemming from the Feb. 27 incident; and third, prosecutors argued that Hilton failed to “obey all laws and orders of the court.”

she was caught drinking and driving last year and put on probation. she acknowledged her license and went on to get caught twice DUI... so 45 days is just right

Maybe she’ll run for office to change those rules.

You know, we could pay a good portion of the national debt by auctioning off the job of doing her cavity search.

And maybe it’ll be the best thing that ever happened to her.

Yeah, but it's gonna suck for us. All the Paris interviews (Paris, what was it like inside??), the movements she's going to head up championing for the rights of inmates, probably a book deal and the non-stop 24x7 Paris-a-thon when the little tramp is released..

I suspect that the whole thing is correographed by her publicist. Like they say, “no publicity is bad publicity.”

I don’t believe she was ever off the hook for the 45 days, the media announced reduction was based on a time off for good behavior.

All things considered, there is a school of thought which holds that her non street life background makes jail time much much stiffer.

That said, she should still get time off for good behavior same as anyone else.

If her name was Perez, you’re right. We’d never heard of her, and she would be serving whatever sentence she was handed.

And yes, it’s obvious she can’t handle it, but that is not an excuse to give her house arrest.

I doubt it. She has her clothes on in this one.

The sentence wouldn’t be nearly as severe. Probably no jail time. They are sticking it to her because she is a celebrity.
