Sure we are used to seeing celebs on the cover of tabloid mags, but walking down prison row? Well, let’s just say we’ve got a better chance of finding Jimmy Hoffa.
In the summer of 2007 Paris Hilton was arrested for driving with a suspended license. However her 45-day jail sentence was cut down to 23 days because of “good behavior” (showing up in court) and medical considerations (refusing to eat jail food). Oh, and did I mention she stayed in a section of jail reserved just for celebrities? Yeah, that sounds like some pretty harsh jail treatment to me…
Which then leads me to my next point. How has Paris Hilton contributed to our society? I am not sure about you, but I am not finding an answer to this question, (I even googled it). Miss Hilton has not helped our society in any way except by maybe boosting Carl Jr.’s hamburger sales after she taught America how to wash a car in a $5,000 bathensuit embedded with Swarovski crystals. I hate to say it, but she is useless to society and we are probably better off without her in the public eye.
I don’t care what the courts say, Hilton left jail early simply because of her hotel heiress status, and because she is a celeb and is a household name. If a person breaks the law, then they break the law. Had this happened to “Joe Schmo” they would attend court, receive their sentencing, and do their time. None of this sentencing cut in half for good behavior stuff.
This is just another one of those cases where celebrity narcissicm gets in the way. Paris feels she is so superior that she is entitled to special treatment, and sadly, our court system agrees.
