I actually feel sorry for Paris, she was obviously not raised to know any better, and really needs to be in a mental health facility, followed by a decent education.
I think her worthless a$$ parents are the ones that need to be in jail.

Geraldo Rivera is on Fox News (of all places) saying that he's challenging ANYONE to show him someone sentenced the way she was for the exact violations. No one has risen to the challenge. In other words, she's getting a far harsher sentence than everyone else for the same set of circumstances.

Fair is fair. She could have just as easily learned a tough lesson by doing tons of dirty community service; stuff she isn't used to doing, even on the Simple Life. 45 days in jail is ridiculous for her. You can harp all you want about how spoiled she is or how she leads a charmed life, etc., but that makes no difference, and it's not germane. It just makes people revel in her demise. Hey, if that's a quality you're proud to own, be my guest; that's on you.

Releasing her early is certainly not without precedent in LA County. Read:

"In fact, the loss of bed space in the jails has resulted in a reduction of capacity from its recent peak 22,214 to its present 17,400. This reduction has forced the Sheriff to release thousands of inmates from the jails before completing their sentences."

I've spent a night in jail, thank you, and it's no place anyone wants to go to, much less someone who obviously can't handle it, like her. I am far from saying she shouldn't be punished. I AM saying this judge had many options available to him that would have taught her the lesson she so badly needed while not including jail. With gangs running rampant in LA spreading drugs and violence (and remaining free from incarceration), give a moment to think about the priorities here. It's ludicrous.

Exactly, not only was she singled out for harsher punishment because she is Paris, but she was also singled out for being sent back to jail because she is Paris. Someone is going to tell me judges usually review Sheriff's decisions to release nonviolent inmates to house arrest due to overcrowding? Please. If she wasn't famous, she wouldn't be sentenced to this many days, nor would anyone care if she was released after serving only a few days.
I pray she uses the time to write a book and milk this unjustly harsh punishment for all the free publicity she can get, and make as much money as she can.

Normally, I would agree with you. But Paris never followed thru on the conditions of her parole and she never intended to. Additionally, Paris and her mother showed great contempt for the court system by spouting comments out during the hearing and otherwise behaving like total asses in/out of the courtroom. If you expect the judge to show any leniency, then you should show the judge some respect. It may be true that others have not received the harsh sentence she did, but I seriously doubt those others gave a big FU to the judge like she did either.

On a second point, reports are that she had a private psychiatrist come into the county facility and this person played a role in obtaining the medical release for her. The Sheriffs Dept. was supposed to provide that documentation to the judge for review and they did not. Read the articles, the judge made a point of saying this and then continued every few minutes of the hearing to point out that the documents still had not arrived. If such documents existed, dont you think the Defense would have brought them? It was another snub to the court system. She tried to weasle her way out of this, was called on it, and is now going to suffer the consequences. The judge has every right to be angry and respond in the manner he did. Paris has no respect for the court system, her family & attorneys show no respect, and now the Sheriff's Dept., by releasing her and then not providing the supporting medical documentation they claimed to had have backing up her medical condition, have too.

If she had dealt with this like an adult I would feel differently. As it is, I have no pity for her situation.

I despise DUI and want harsh punishment as much as the next guy but for some of you to react in celebration and glee at the whole thing is just ... yeah. It's one thing to say "good she's going back" but it's another to say "I hope she rots in there." WTF is wrong with you people? I expect that from 15 year olds.

The fact that you started this thread and are thinking about her indicates you are buying into this meaningless entertainment media ploy. It's sickening to many people (myself included) that useless dimwits like Paris get media attention when there are important things happening in the world.

This is why many people resent her and are happy to see her suffer.

Wasn't it her second DUI? And she also had a revoked license? Seems like 45 days is what your average joe who get for a second offense. Why did she get out early in the first place?

ask yourself.
how fair and equal would it feel it it were you or me being told we could serve our debt via house sentence after going to jail for 3 nights.
then, be dragged back into jail two days later to fulfill the sentence?


doesnt seem fair to me at all.

...

She said that she couldn't stay in jail because of a serious medical/mental problem, and then had a huge party last night. How fcking dense are you?

I am confused. She was sentenced to 23 days in jail... then she was told to serve her entire 45 day sentence at home. Now she's being sent back to jail to fulfill that entire sentence (45 days) ?

.

I edited your OP just so I could comment. OK?

Speaking as a red-blooded American male:

She's freaking hot as hell. She's actually a little too skinny for my tastes...but I like her face and the way she dresses.

I would actually walk her little dog in the park and put his little jacket on him just so I could touch her. Notice that there is definite touching involved. Not "hanging out with."

Just don't tell my wife, mmm'kay?

ps
I wanted her to do the whole 45 days in jail. In community. NOT in the special jail cells. She's had 3 DUIs; I drink a beer while WALKING in the park and I get a $500 fine and 2 weeks community service! Where's the justice, man?

It's always been 45 days, except with the assumed good behavior, she'd only have to spend 23 days of it. There would be no "good behavior" ruling if she did a house arrest so it'd be the full term.

Now after pulling this... you can forget about good behavior...

With gangs running rampant in LA spreading drugs and violence (and remaining free from incarceration), give a moment to think about the priorities here. It's ludicrous.

The part I bolded is some real shaky "logic". Did Geraldo show cases with the exact violations where the people got less time? If he didn't, why can't I claim that everyone in this position actually gets more time than Paris got. For him to have a real argument, he would need to gather all the data where this exact scenario happened and then prove that on average people were punished significantly less than Paris.

I have no idea where I can go to find somebody with the same case characteristics. What I can show you is many people that have violated the terms of their probation and ended up going to jail. That's the scenario we have here. She essentially violated her probation 3 times. She failed to report to an alcolol education class, and she was pulled over twice for traffic violations, while driving on a suspended license. The last time was 70mph in a 35mph zone, 35 miles over the speed limit. So she wasn't simply violating her probation for reckless driving, she was continuing to drive recklessly during a period where it was illegal for her to drive at all.

What should the punishment be for someone who has been forbidden to drive because they are a danger, but keeps doing it othewise? She made it clear that she intended to keep ignoring the terms of her probation. If she was pulled over twice, she probably drove hundreds of times. The punishment should be severe enough that she's punished for her actions, and is scared to break the law again. To me, a month in jail works perfectly. To you, her doing community service and "getting dirty" might be enough, but understand that plenty of people disagree. Also if she ran down one or your relatives after flaunting the law and getting only community service, I guarantee you would be crying about the failure of the system to punish somebody who was repeatedly caught breaking the law without remorse.

I don't get these arguments about worse criminals being out there. Should the cops stop looking out for drunk drivers and speeders? When they are caught drunk driving, should they not get sentenced to things like probation? When they repeatedly violate probation should they not go to jail? What exactly is your solution to prevent things like Paris going to jail? Which part of the system will you remove? Please don't be hypocritical and say all these parts of the system should still function... except in the case of Paris.

Yeah, it kinda sucks, but it's hardly a violation of basic human rights or anything. Sometimes life gives you the short end of the stick. In her case, that happens very seldom.

This is the most important comment.

Had she not been such a spoiled brat about her entire situation from the beginning she wouldn't have this problem. Driving with a suspended license has to be one of the dumbest things you can go to jail for. It's so easy to not violate that law, especially when you have the money to hire a driver.

She only has herself to blame for her situation and I only hope she'll come out of this enlightened as to what an awful person she really is.
