JPC sr said:I sure hope this report is true.
It was a horrible thing to do to the poor woman.
Here is some cool jail trivia;
Paris checked in at 11:30 pm so she gets credit for the whole day, because serving part of a day is a day in jail, and since she got released (pray hopefully) in the early morning then that counts as a whole day too. So three days are actually only a half hour day then one full day and a part morning as the third day. Thus 3 days is like 25 hours long.
If the report is not true then I will get sick and die.
Hey JPC, now that she's got to go back will you get sick and die?

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.

Get your pitchforks and torches ready... I'm on Hilton's side on this issue. And I'll further infuriate many by saying I'm pretty disappointed that more Republicans aren't. Why is this? I was in traffic court not too long ago as a witness to an accident, and there was no less than, honest to God, twenty cases of people who did exactly what Hilton did, i.e., driving while on a suspended license and while on probation for other expenses. The judge, in concurrence with the State's Atorney rep, allowed all of them to plead no contest, and dropped the charges on all but two to driving without a license. Those with that charge walked out of the courtroom scott free, without even having to pay court fees, and with a firm order from the judge not to get caught driving again. The two cases where the offenders weren't allowed to plead down were ones where they had been caught driving drunk and on a suspended license and while on probabtion from a previous DUI/DWI.
So this is a Florida thing right? I went to traffic court in St. Mary's County to contest a ticket a few years ago, and there were two people who were in for their THIRD DUI/DWI arrest and second driving on a suspended charges, and they both got a walk after paying a fine and pledging to go to drunk school.
I would love to see how many people this judge tossed in the pokie for charges like this. I'll bet zero. I think Hilton was sentenced the was she was because of who she is and not because of what she did. When she said "it isn't fair", she's right.
So, why be nad at Republicans? I was listening to Hannity today, and he was applauding the sentence because he felt it was a good thing to send this selfish, self-indulgent, spoiled brat to prison to teach her a lesson. He was upset that she has so much wealth and only goes to parties and lives a life of liesure when she could be helping others. Anyone else's hypocrisy alarm going off? This is the same guy who goes ballistic eveytime Democrats use those exact same arguments to attack big business or "The Rich".
If Hilton pulled an OJ, whacked someone, and got a walk, I would be right with you guys. But she did something that 99.9% of people, who aren't rich and selfish, would get a walk on.

AND STAY THERE!!!!!! 
Paris was on 36 months’ probation, alcohol education. After that, she was stopped twice while driving on a suspended license. The second stop landed her in the courtroom. Sounds like three strikes to me.Bruzilla said:
Probation isn't fricken hard. It is an alternative to incarceration provided she complete certain conditions, conditions SHE agreed to complete instead of going to jail. She doesn't have monetary obstacles in her way like other probationers. She could and can afford to attend treatment and pay any unpaid tickets on her record. She showed a blatant disregard for the judge’s orders and therefore, she should receive the time the judge initially suspended. I predicted she was going to end up on home detention when the story of her probation violation came out. Personally, I really could give two craps about the pampered princess myself, but I did giggle a bit when I heard she spent a night in jail.

Sounds like three strikes to me too... but it's also three strikes for everyone else who does these same things and just pays a fine.

It's the job of the prosecutor and the judge to consider the totality of the case. That is where her wealth becomes an issue. If you or I were fined $10K, it would be a major blow and might deter us from repeating the behavior. There is no fine that the judge could legally levy that would have any impact on her behavior. That is where the judge was correct to sentence her as the statute allows. She was not sent to jail because she is rich, she was sent to jail because she showed irresponsibility and jail was the only way for the judge to send the message that what she did was serious.Bruzilla said:

I agree 100% with you... right up to the last sentence. Like I said, I saw over 20 people, who did the exact same things she did, get off scott free in court just a few weeks ago. I'll bet if you went back through the LA County records you would find only one case where this sentence was handed down... this one. A judge shouldn't excuse behavior thousands of times, then slam someone to "send a message" just because someone's rich, or because you feel like they aren't taking you seriously, or there isn't a big enough fine to make you happy. It's all about consistency.
First, this judge, like all judges presiding over the trial of a celebrity, acts differently than they normally would. Second, the judge was pissed today, primarily at the Sheriff's Department, and he shouldn't be making decisions when he's in that state of mind.

Would THIS face lie?
I just think this is soooooo damn funny
"She was taken handcuffed and crying from her home. She was escorted into court disheveled, without makeup, hair askew and face red with tears.
Crying out for her mother when she was ordered back to jail, Paris Hilton's cool, glamorous image evaporated Friday as she gave the impression of a little girl lost in a merciless legal system.
"It's not right!" shouted the weeping Hilton. "Mom!" she called out to Kathy Hilton, who also was in tears."
Oh the drama....

I'm torn. I do see your point but MMDad has a point too. If I get pinched I get a $1500 fine and no driving for 90 days would hurt like hell. $1500 doesn't hurt her and she has shown twice that she disregards the 90 suspension so the judge does have the lattitude in sentencing to punish her to a certain degree. The fine is nothing to her, she disregarded the law. I guess he decided her spending 40 days in jail inflicted the same degree of pain you or I would feel with 90 day suspension and a $1500 fine.Bruzilla said:
The judges job is to get her attention and punish her to deter her contempt of the law in the future. I believe he has accomplished those.
yeaaa!!!!!!paris!yea! she loves all of us!!!!! save paris! let her out!!!!!!!! ITS NOT RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! shes pritty! shes white! shes rich! im not pritty!!!!im not rich.

I think they got their message across. Honestly, this needs to end now.
I recorded "MSNBC Special Report" while I was out and could not believe what I saw.
Absolutely ridiculous. The way these "journalists" acted today was irresponsible, unethical, reckless, stupid, and uncalledfor.
Every single one of these journalists that acted this way should be sent to jail with Paris.
These people put a bad face on journalists.
