Socialite Paris Hilton is facing jail after Los Angeles prosecutors claimed she had been driving without a licence. They are to ask a judge to begin proceedings against the hotel heiress, claiming she violated a probation order over a driving offence. "We're confident we have sufficient evidence to prove that her licence was suspended and that she had knowledge of that suspension," said Nick Velasquez, a spokesman for the city attorney's office. Hilton could face up to 90 days in jail if a judge finds she violated her probation, he said. Velasquez declined to elaborate on the evidence, citing an ongoing investigation. In January, Hilton pleaded no contest to alcohol-related reckless driving stemming from an arrest in Hollywood last September. She was sentenced to 36 months probation, alcohol education and £700 in fines. Hilton was pulled over again on Sunset Boulevard on February 28. Police said they saw her blue Bentley Continental GTC speeding with its headlights off. She was ticketed for misdemeanor driving with a suspended licence. Hilton's spokesman Elliot Mintz said at the time that she was not aware that her licence was suspended. |
