News: Paris is released from custody

[Axxman]

LOS ANGELES - After only three days behind bars, Paris Hilton traded a 12-by-8-foot cell for her 2,700-square-foot Hollywood Hills home when she was released early Thursday because of an unspecified medical condition.

Hilton was to be under home confinement, wearing an electronic monitoring ankle bracelet, for the remaining 40 days of her sentence for violating probation in a reckless driving case.

The celebrity inmate was sent home from the L.A. County jail

I think its a travesty.......................what kinda justice is this?? If it was one of us, we'd still be there.

Silent ..how can you be so nasty to a poor misunderstood girl ? She has suffered enough ....3 days without her servants, sycophants, massages, alcohol, drugs, shopping, parties, or even media attention ...enough to make anyone ill

sorry Silent just get a bit fed up of being told how none of it is ever the fault of the poor little spoilt br**s ..they have had to put up with so much attention from the media and so much stress..I do think the sentence was futile Did ANYONE think she would serve it ? Perhaps if she had been sentenced to actually do something useful for those that really know what suffering or hardship is it would have been of more use.

But all sarcasm aside i actually do feel sorry for her and others like her ...they dont know what it is to have the sort of real and unconditional love that we have and when you think of what eternity holds for them unless someone can love them enough to get theri attention focused away from themselves ...where is the emoticon for *shudder*

In my area, we have the "toughest sheriff in America" (according to him), and he is well liked here too. His comments today:

Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he rarely puts celebrities in Tent City, but for Paris Hilton, he would have made an exception. "This one I would have put in the tent," he said.

Did ANYONE think she would serve it ?

She would have served it in Arizona if she was convicted here.

well she is only human like the rest of us....if she has never been to jail before three days gives her a very good taste of it...she learnedd something for it i know....hopefully it didnt make her really mad......give the girl a break....rich or not shes just like the rest of us.

I think they should have charged her &1000.00/day that she did not serve. My daughter got to choose her punishment, $200 fine or 16 hours community service. She had to pay a fine or serve her time. Miss Hilton did neither, considering her offense. Sure she is under house arrest. Martha Stewart did more time, and Miss Hilton's offense IMO was 10X worse. Most all states recognize that drinking and driving is dangerous and can be lethal. It doesnt always kill the intoxicated driver, more often when it does kill, its sober people either driving or walking on the sidewalk that end up dead, or seriously injured.

If Miss Hilton is too ill to spend her sentance behind bars, she is too ill to be behind the wheel of a vehicle. Granted her liscense was suspended. But if she cannot control herself from driving, which for her is a criminal act, she needs to be where we keep criminals, IN JAIL!

She was in there because she commited and was convicted of a crime. If she gets out early, then so should all the other people convicted the same way. Hopefully it didnt make her mad? How about making the public mad that she got out early, that she risked the lives of others when she chose to drive as a DUI?

Amen Jade!

so does this open the floodgates for anyone else who actually served time for the same offence to claim discrimination?
