Paris Hilton Jail Time Halved

Paris HiltonIn one more example of how the rich and the poor in America aren’t actually living in the same country, Paris Hilton has had her 45-day jail sentence dropped to 23 days.

Why? For good behavior (imagine that).

And what was her good behavior? According to Los Angeles County sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore, she was awarded good behavior for showing up at her latest court date. Looks like the sheriff confused good behavior for minimal expected behavior.

Not only that, but she gets to stay in the “special needs housing unit” at the Century Regional Detention Center — a 2,200-inmate facility. Hilton will be staying in one of the 12 two-person cells reserved for public officials, celebrities and other high-profile inmates. In other words, she’ll get to stay in one of the “rich people” cells.

Meanwhile, Genarlow Wilson continues to serve 10 years for consensual oral sex.

Spoiled rich brat Paris Hilton was first arrested in September 2006 for driving intoxicated and drugged. In May 2007 she was sentenced to jail for never enrolling in an alcohol education course, for committing two more traffic violations, and for driving with a suspended license — all while under her three-year parole.

With the rise of private prisons for rich people, punishment for rich people like Paris Hilton amounts to what us regular Americans would call a welcome vacation.

    Put me down as Disgusted squared. Or cubed. I feel like I’ve fallen into wonderland.

    Ditto

  3. Pete Says:

    Each day we take a step closer toward insanity in this country. Rational thinking and behavior are becoming a thing of the past.

  4. Lynne Says:

    The only reason Paril Hilton is “somebody” anyway is because of whose crotch she was snatched out of.
    Eat the Rich.

  5. La Sirena Says:

    So Genalow Wilson is serving 10 years for taking the downtown train and Paris’s sentence is shortened? She’s fortunate to be rich, spoiled, and not a resident of Georgia … as Paris is rumored to spend a lot of time going down… town…

    I joke but this whole thing does suck … the judge thinks he’s hard because he’s having her locked up instead of sending her to rehab or putting her on probation. Why does she drive anyway? Doesn’t she have a couple of limos and a chain of hotels?

    Eat the rich!!!

    I wish I could have been in the room when Paris personally cried big crocodile tears on the sheriffs….shirt.
    Come on, it takes practice to resist the wiles of an exprienced croc.
    Now, if the stars will align just a bit better…we will get that other hideous b**ch…I mean blond to share her cell. Coulter.

  8. JoeC Says:

    Xman: That would be nice, to get Coulter off the street for a while, too. You just have to love Coulter…

    Hating Ann is so easy and so much fun!

  10. Pete Says:

    How can you ever think of eating the rich? If Paris and Ann top the menu, you would walk away still hungry. There’s probably more substances on a hot wing, then those two put together.

    Pete: Coulter has this to say about being thin…

    Oh, and here’s another beauty…

    “I think [women] should be armed but should not [be allowed to] vote. No, they all have to give up their vote, not just, you know, the lady clapping and me. The problem with women voting — and your Communists will back me up on this — is that, you know, women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it. And when they take these polls, it’s always more money on education, more money on child care, more money on day care.”
    ~Ann Coulter, Politically Incorrect, Feb. 26, 2001

    Coulter is a very smart lady; to have avoided the straitjacket for so long in her mental state is no easy task. ;-)

  13. Pete Says:

    To Lynne, I have a lot of cupons for Burger King, they are the buy one get one free. I am willing to give them to you since I wont be using them.

    Actually… He doesn’t. He just neglects his sleep. I will be sure to keep him very busy this weekend. ;)

    hmmmm….

    […] For now, the service is slated to be offered in ten cities, including New York, L.A., Detroit, and Chicago. We’re hoping movie stars and professional athletes use such a service to forgo the danger of drunken driving and the humility (and jail time) that comes with a DUI, but until Avis fills their fleet with Bentley’s and Rollers, we won’t hold our breath.
