>><I’m not a fan of Paris Hilton, but Ann Coulter made a good point yesterday on Fox. This is a case of unequal justice against someone who is rich and famous. An ordinary person wouldn’t get this kind of sentence. Class warfare, or as Rush calls it, Get-Evenism.<<
Yep. 45 days in a jail for driving without a license when they are releasing more serious criminals and the judge taking such a public position - this is personal and class (or lack of class) based, not justice
She complied with none of her probation and was caught driving on suspension twice. She was also in a section just for celebs and it was NOT overcrowded.

As I understand it, this was not a conviction and sentence for driving without a license. The offense was DUI, reduced to reckless driving. She got probation rather than jail in the first instance. She was caught driving, warned not to do it again, and then was caught driving with her license suspended a second time. When her court appearance time arrived, she was late for court, then bellyached to the court. THAT is why she got the time. She mocked the court and paid the price. Few non-rich people would do this. Paris attempted to put herself above the law. It is difficult to find much sympathy for her.
