Paris Sent Back to Jail, Screaming and Crying

Tough toenails, princess. See what life is like when money doesn't buy you everything! (Should've bought you a chauffeur, you idiot!)

I don't get it.. why does she have to serve the entire 45 days now that she's sent back?--- Is she being punished for the Deputies letting her leave with a bracelet... seems like a personnel problem and Paris got caught in the middle.
Was it Entertainment Weekly that reported it was a rash and not the I won't eat thing that got her out? Then would it be the Dr. who didn't make the right call as to the severity of the medical condition?

I would have been satisfied with the 23 days served and appreciated the fact that she/her family chose NOT to send her to a pay jail.

I'm not on the band wagon of "poor little rich girl" like everyone else.. I would want equal and due process no matter who they charged with breaking the law...

But I need the clarification on the NOW YOU SERVE THE WHOLE TIME thing...

Thanks

I don't quite understand that either, except that the sentence was only reduced from 45 to 23 because of "good behavior," which she doesn't seem to have exhibited, given her apparent food strike, private shrink in the jail, screaming tantrums in court, etc. I don't know if that's why or not. Might just be a mistake in the reporting . . . personally, I think you should do jail time on the first drunk driving offense, so I'm not feeling an ounce of pity for this spoiled brat.

Thanks for the update.
I'll watch the news later and see if they make a big deal out of that part.

ITA on the first offense and doing time then...slap on the wrist serves no purpose in my book either.
And man, the people you see arrested on their 10th, 15th and I saw one story with a 28th offense recently..
What's up with that? I don't want people like that out on my roads!---

And yes, I too had given thought to the fact that of all the people in the whole wide world she had the means to have a driver for the entire time of her suspension....arrogant, above the law attitude did deserve stiffer punishment. She chose not to, which was a deliberate act.

Wonder how big of a wakeup call this REALLY will be for her?

hummm....

She should have had to serve the whole 45 days in the first place....our kids would have had to...these celebrities think they can do whatever they want and get away with it...and unfortunately the justice system treats them special too......Sherri

The police car arrived at the courthouse and disappeared into the underground parking lot. Inside, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer listened to the city attorney's complaint that Sheriff Lee Baca did not have the right to reassign Hilton to electronically monitored home detention after only three days in jail for violating probation in a reckless driving case.
Quote:
The decision by Sheriff Lee Baca to move Hilton chafed prosecutors and Judge Sauer, who spelled out during sentencing that Hilton was not allowed to serve house detention.
Quote:
Baca dismissed the criticism, saying the decision was made based on medical advice.

"It isn't wise to keep a person in jail with her problem over an extended period of time and let the problem get worse," Baca told the Los Angeles Times on Thursday.
"My message to those who don't like celebrities is that punishing celebrities more than the average American is not justice," Baca said.



Oh my goodness, this sheriff must be joking. Does he really think the outrage stems from us not liking celebrities? He needs to get real.
I hope he remembers his comment the next time some 'average american' who has a rash is sent to jail.

This is what I am thinking. I could have sworn I heard the Sheriff in charge of the jail say that someone failed to mention medication that she was taking and that she had a medical condition due to not getting this medication. OK, the kids were talking and I was trying to listen to the tv without listening to them talk to each other about some cartoon. So, did anyone else see the press conference.

I told hubby that my guess might be that she is taking methadone or drugs and if she doesnt have the medicine/drugs she is going through withdrawl.

This is of course only spectulation, but I didnt have school today, finished all my errands before the drama and had time to chat with my Mom about the goings on.

From what I can recall hearings, this is correct. She was supposed to earn 1 day off for each day she was good. And I believe she can still earn the days off. So she might not have to spend the full 45 days.

I am glad she was ordered back to jail to serve out her time. However, I would be even happier if Sheriff Baca were thrown in jail for contempt of court.

I heard that for every four days she serves with good behavior.. then she gets a 1 day reduction of her sentence.

hmmmm.. going to go read about that later.

Radar Online is reporting Sheriff Lee Baca (the guy who let Paris out of jail) accepted a $1,000 campaign donation last year from Paris Hilton's grandfather, William Barron Hilton. $1,000 is the maximum amount allowable under California campaign rules.
so the get out of jail card only cost $1 grand. That's hot.

I think that she is where she deserves to be. I am hoping that something is done about the Sheriff in this matter. He should have never let her out. As far as medical problems....there are people in jail right now who have aids, there are drug addicts who need methadone on a daily basis, there are inmates who have cancer, and many other medical issues. As far as depression...if they let everyone out who is suffering from depression, the jails would be near empty. I don't think there was any reason that this woman should have been let out after a few days, and I am glad that the judge put his foot down in this matter!

poll on msnbc right now, has 93% of those taking the poll feel that she is where she should be.

the poll on channel 4 (nbc local) website has 93% also.


My question is.. if her goal is to be in press, are we all not just "aiding her cause"?? Even bad press is still press...and keeps her name in the spotlight.

None of the news reports are stating why the sentence is back to 45 days but I was wondering if since she was late to court, the Sheriff went to bring her in (without makeup thank heavns) and she wanted to conference call into the proceedings. The judge is pissy and removed the prestated "good behaviour" time.

My question when she went in and when prisoners go into jail don't they do some type of medical screening? Duh if you knew you had to take meds wouldn't you tell them?! And when you tell the judge that a doctor has medical evidence that she needs to be out wouldn't that doctor get the report/proof right over to the judge?! From what I read the judge is still waiting for that report from a week ago. I think her only disease is poor rich girl syndrome.

Oh, I love that statement!! So true. I heard this morning that she is in a psychiatric hospital for prisoners so she can be evaluated. I think it's called something like Twin Towers something or other....... The news said no one was sure if she'd be spending the entire prison stay in that facility or go back to the jail.

I believe the medical term is PRGS...and she has a bad case of it! Too bad she has no one on her side to give her direction, they all defend her instead of saying "You were wrong,suck it up and do your time," Poor Paris, she gets what she deserves.

Remember the Mel Gibson arrest incident? It was reported that Gibson's hateful anti Semetic remarks were removed/modified from the deputy's initial written report and placed in a supplimental report instead. Okay, how many of 'our' arrest reports would be changed? Guess which sheriff's department handled the arrest? Lee Baca's.

I do feel it is not right to make Paris serve 43 days in jail instead of the 23. It's not like she escaped or anything, she was let out.
Maybe Paris should do 23 and Baca do the rest, lol

I don't care whether she does 45 or 23 or whatever. It should be whatever a "normal" person that was caught driving drunk who twice was picked up for driving on a suspended license would do. First she drove drunk, then she flipped the bird twice to the legal system, then she acted as though she deserved special treatment from the justice system. She shouldn't be punished harsher, but she shouldn't get off easier, either. She was a drunk driver, then she twice more violated the law. She didn't exactly "do nothing," like some blogs are saying.

pfft...

a normal person would not get just 23 or 45 days for driving drunk let alone driving drunk AND being caught twice on a suspended license!!

Just for the driving drunk charge alone, your license is suspended... plus you face up to 90 days in jail IF THERE ARE NO INJURIES OR DEATHS.

If you cause injury to someone or there is a death...your license is revoked and you have up to $5,000 fine plus 5 years in PRISON (no amount of rashes or coughing will get you out).

Driving on a suspended license in Michigan: up to 93 days in jail plus $500 fines plus court costs for first offense...second offense: up to 1 year confinement plus $1,000 fine plus court costs. (suspended license in Michigan above only applies if there are not injuries...if there are, well look out...you won't live long enough to get your revoked license back!)


So, as far as being "normal" she is as far from that as possible. 23 or even 45 is a freakin GIFT courtesy of the double standard for those who have and those who have not.

Ok I know I am way too jaded, but am I the only one that thinks the Hilton's may have given an early CASH Christmas gift to Sheriff Baca? It's not like he would be the first elected official to take a bribe. Unfortunately the hue and cry was too loud and long for him to play it off with the medical/medication/ rash alibi.

Not a doubt in my mind there are people in other people's back pocket, etc. And, with a family as rich at the Hilton's???? OMG, please!!!

I was watching soemthing this morning, and there was a woman on there who gave both scenarios, really, and said the Sheriff is really in a tight spot, and WHAT Sheriff would want ANY celebrity in their jail???? There's a lot of added media, and everyone on pins and needles, etc. I can see both sides, really. What if something happened to Paris while she was in jail??? There would be you know what to pay. But, I still think she belongs there!!!
