I wonder how many people in LA who have served time in a similar situation are freaking out right now.

Or how many people currenty serving a drunk driving sentence are calling their attorneys this morning. :confused:

why do you assume that she receieved special treatment?

from what i understand, this is SOP for non-violent DUI offenders.

standard treatment for someone who gets a DUI while driving on a suspended licence? she was sentanced for 45 days, and it was knocked down to 25 days. they are claiming she served 5 days (b/c she check in at 11:30 at night) I didnt know 3 days was standard treatment.

For the same reasons everyone else thinks she's receiveing special treatment. She is and that's a fact.

when the jail is overcrowded and they're expending resources to keep 1 inmate safe via solitary confinement (the LA jail system sure as hell doesn't want anything happening to the celebutard while in their "care" that's for sure). It was probably easier for them to just cut her loose and change it over to home confinement, which isn't out of the norm in situations like this.

News article is old. Written before her release

Whatever the reason it appears that most everyone agree that this whole issue is a matter of perception regarding Ms Hilton, her behaviour and how she is being treated compared to the avarage citizen. If I were in the same situation i'm positive the results would have been far different even if i had a lawyer of the same caliber she has.It's a sad charade. :popcorn: I'm sure "The jailhouse captain overseeing socialite Paris Hilton for the next few weeks as the article says will not be following Ms. Hilton home to make sure she answers the call for breakfast.

so to clarify, you're only upset that she's out early and that is the only part of this where you think she's receiving special treatment?

if so, you might want to google Michelle Rodriguez, she's an actress on "Lost". She was sentenced to 60 days in LA jail for her DUI and spent 10 hours in jail. So in doing the math, Ms. Hilton actually spent a considerably longer time in the can and then received home confinement on top of it which Rodriquez didn't.

So in fact, she's getting punished more than one of her "peers" and more in line with the punishment that joe blow usa citizen would receive.
