As you may know, Paris Hilton was released from prison yesterday after sevring 3 days of her 23 day sentance (which was reduced from a minimum 45 days!).
Why? Because she was crying and may try to kill herself?! It's a mockery of the legal system and to the people in prison who have to serve there sentance! What kind of message does it send out to potential criminals? Cry and you get away with it? Pathetic! |

Actually she didnt try to at all. She went in there with her head up high if you'd read any interviews. She said that she was going to do it and learn about herself. They let her out though. So don't go blaming Paris.

It wasn't her fault she got released, they released her, she did not beg to be released she planned to do the full stretch so people don't start calling her.

This is ridiculous. I mean how hard can it be to serve a few days.
She got let out early because of her family name. Simple as. Shows how pathetic the legal system in America is. |

Yes, she did 'cry herself to sleep' and 'refused to eat', and she should still be in there, but at the end of the day, she didn't ask to be released. She was released because they thought she should be. So instead of blaming Paris, why don't you blame the LA Prison.

I’m really quite shocked. It would have been better if she had at least served her full sentence because people could be sure she’d learnt her lesson. Not to mention the fact that there would have been more of a chance of people respecting her had she done it. If there’s still a chance of her going back, then I take what I say back, but somehow I doubt it.

Well I guess the next time she's drunk and she's deciding whether to drive home or not, she can think to herself "Sure, whats the worst that can happen, even if they catch me I'll spend 3 days in prison and then I'll get out. Plus I'll generate a load of sympathy for myself from my fans. Ah well, what the hell, I'll just drive home drunk then...."
I don't know who is to blame, Paris, her people or the LA/American prison authorities but I really am quite disgusted by this ![]() |

If she threatened to commit suicide, she should be put in a psychiatric institute or whatever you're meant to call them...

She has been sent back to do a further 40 days, since its been 5 days since she went to jail now. Her lawyer is now going to appeal against the sentence. I don't see how she can have her sentence halved again for good behaviour after making such a nuisance of herself.
As reported in the Sun PETRIFIED PARIS HILTON mouthed “I love you” to her parents last night — before being carted off to face a hostile reception in prison. The blonde heiress sobbed constantly during a one-hour hearing as a court overturned her early release from jail. Onlookers in the Los Angeles court said her whole body was shaking and having spasms. As Judge Michael Sauer ordered her back to prison to serve her FULL 45-day sentence, Paris screamed: “It’s not right”. And as a female cop dragged her away to the cells, Paris looked up at mum Kathy and wept, “Mom! Mom!” Mrs Hilton broke down in tears and had to be comforted by husband Rick. Distraught Paris, 26, was last night back on suicide watch at the Century Regional Detention Facility just 36 hours after being freed early on medical grounds. Prisoner number 9818783 was put back in her special cell — isolated from other inmates — amid fears the angry lags could RIOT over her special treatment. Wardens even ordered a lockdown as prisoners — who think Paris pretended to be sick to con doctors — threatened a revolt. An insider at the prison in Lynwood, California, said: “The women inside the jail are seething. They say if you’re a rich white girl you get special treatment. “They are furious that while Paris had her own special cell with a panic button, was given better food and was kept away from the general population, she was still released early. “There are girls in here with cancer, TB, and with MRSA. They aren’t allowed to go home and are treated by prison medical staff. “The prisoners think if you’re rich and pretend you’re sick you can get away with murder. “Many of the girls have been locked down in their cells all day because they are so furious. The jail is full of screams about Paris. “Prison bosses fear this could simmer over into violence.” Ex-inmate Lisa Caprie said she suffered a nervous breakdown inside but was kept there. She said: “We heard Paris was treated like the Queen of England. It’s not fair. My husband fought to get me out when I had a breakdown but they didn’t listen.” And Elana Lamb, set free with an ankle tag, said Paris made a nuisance of herself by repeatedly pressing a medical alert button. Lamb, 38, said: “She was just whining, complaining she was cold and hungry.” Simple Life star Paris was hauled back to court in handcuffs yesterday 36 hours after prison chiefs freed her amid fears she was suicidal and suffering a breakdown. She had spent just three full days in jail — and was released to serve out the rest of her sentence with 40 days’ house arrest at her Hollywood Hills mansion. Paris was originally sentenced to 45 days for violating her probation and driving ban after a drink-driving conviction. She was told the term would be cut to 23 days for good behaviour and because of prison overcrowding. But angry Judge Sauer last night ordered her to serve the full sentence. Her jail time this week counts as five days, meaning she has another 40 to go. The judge complained that he had not been shown any medical evidence to show why Paris should be allowed home. He added: “At no time did I approve of the defendant being released from custody to her home.” He also blasted the decision to release her for medical reasons, saying: “I don’t know why the defendant could not be treated at Lynwood, because they have a great medical facility.” The Sheriff’s Department, in charge of the jail, defended Paris’s release, saying her condition could not be treated in prison. But the move sparked fury among other law officials. Judge Sauer was fuming as he had specifically said she should not be allowed any work release or electronic monitoring as a substitute for jail. City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo blasted the Sheriff’s Department for releasing Paris early and failing to notify him. Mr Delgadillo added: “We cannot tolerate a two-tiered jail system where the rich and powerful receive special treatment.” LA County Supervisor Mike Antonovich called the early release “a mockery of due process”. He added: “You’re dealing with a spoiled brat acting out to get her way instead of serving her time.” Jail insiders said Paris had sobbed herself to sleep every night. She was heard repeatedly complaining she was cold and that she was hungry because she couldn’t eat the prison food. But once back at her luxury home, Paris celebrated by inviting her family round. A pal said she had sent her assistant shopping and arranged for her make-up artist to visit. The pal said: “It’s so cruel what has happened to her. She wasn’t allowed to wax or use a moisturiser. Her skin is so dry right now.” Paris’s taste of freedom ended yesterday afternoon when sheriffs arrived at her home to put her in handcuffs and take her to court. Looking pale and hiding behind large sunglasses, Paris had ditched her normal glamorous outfits and high heels to dress in a baggy grey tracksuit and trainers. She hugged her parents and sister Nicky before bursting into tears as she was taken away. A courtroom observer said many were shocked by her appearance. He added: “All through the hearing Paris cried. “She was shaking and biting her nails and nodding her head uncontrollably. She was having spasms, rubbing her forehead and neck. She kept shooting tearful looks at her parents. It felt like we were watching her come apart at the seams.” Paris may still get out of jail early, as her sentence is likely to be reduced for good behaviour — and her lawyers are planning to appeal next week. |

She has a special cell, she's isolated from these inmates who she's saying want to kill her! What more does she want!?
This line sums her up completley "And Elana Lamb, set free with an ankle tag, said Paris made a nuisance of herself by repeatedly pressing a medical alert button. Lamb, 38, said: “She was just whining, complaining she was cold and hungry.”" |

Even a die hard Paris fan has got to of seen how stupid she has been.
Serving 3 days when she should've served 23. Now she is serving another 45. totaling 48 days in Jail for an offence that warrants her too. She should've just kept her bimbo mouth shut and served 23 days, now she's serving double it for her whining. 'her head was held high'...from what I can see from the pictures, she was publicly ashamed. ha serves her right. |

If she would just do her time she may actually get some respect from her detractors and I think she could really learn something from the whole experience. |

So has Paris gone back into prison??? as last I heard she had been released and had been tagged and told she was on house arrest and wasent allowed to leave her house for so many days. Serves her right really she should do her time like everyone else who breaks thelaw. Why should she get special treatment. Just because she is a celebrity doesnt mean she is above the law. Stupid girl!
