c/d: paris hilton

Do you mean Nicky Hilton? she is also white. Unless you meant Nicole Ritchie. She's just aneorxic. (xpost)

Truthfully I really don't care about Paris. A young black man was shot in the back and killed at a nightclub here over the weekend by a white officer who had already been discplined for police brutality in the past. Obv. America's lack of priorities angers me. But that's a different thread.

THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH SCHADENFREUDE PEOPLE

ally, fwiw, i think that she was picked up twice driving with a suspended license from the initial dui.

in the County, it's just like a party
'cause in the County, you know everybody

From the smoking gun:

In January, weeks after pleading no contest to a reckless driving charge, the 26-year-old Hilton was cited for driving with a suspended license. After signing a document acknowledging she was not to drive, Hilton was pulled over by cops in February and charged with a probation violation. As a result, she was sentenced to 45 days in jail.

* reckless driving
* suspended licence
* suspended license part II: the wrath of Khan
* enjoy the hotdogs

In September 2006, Hilton was arrested and charged with driving under the influence with a blood alcohol content of 0.08%, the minimum at which it is illegal to drive in California. Hilton's drivers license was subsequently suspended in November 2006,[34] and in January 2007 she pled no contest to the alcohol-related reckless driving charge.[35] Her punishment was a 36 month probation sentence and fines of about $1,500.[36]

On February 27, 2007 Hilton was caught driving 70 MPH in a 35 MPH zone with a suspended license. She also did not have her headlights on while it was after dark. Prosecutors in the office of the Los Angeles City Attorney charged that those actions, along with the failure to enroll in a court-ordered alcohol education program constituted a violation of the terms of her probation.[34] On May 4, 2007 Hilton was sentenced by Judge Michael T. Sauer to 45 days in jail for violating her probation. She was required to begin her jail term June 5, 2007 or risk a doubling of her sentence.[6]

Initially, Hilton planned to appeal her sentence, and supported an online petition asking California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger for a pardon.[37] In response, various opponents started a petition to maintain the sentence.[38] Both petitions attracted tens of thousands of signatures. Paris later switched lawyers, and dropped her plans to appeal.[39]

Wikinews has news related to:
Motion filed to return Paris Hilton to jail
Jail sentence
On June 3, 2007, after attending the 2007 MTV Movie Awards, Hilton checked herself into the Men's Central Jail of the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles at 11:38 pm PDT. From there, Hilton was transferred by authorities to a special section "reserved for police officers, public officials, celebrities and other high-profile inmates"[40] within the Century Regional Detention Facility, an all female jail in Lynwood, California. Hilton was given the inmate booking number 9818783. With credit for good behavior, it was anticipated that Hilton would only serve 23 days of her 45 day sentence.[41] However, upon LA County Sheriff Lee Baca's signed orders, on the morning of June 7, Hilton was reassigned to 40 days home confinement with an electronic monitoring device due to an unspecified medical condition.[42] The same day Paris was released from prison, Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo and Judge Michael Sauer ordered Hilton back to court on the morning of June 8, 2007. She was sent back to jail to serve the remainder of her sentence, 42 days, and was taken out of the courtroom screaming for her mother, who was in the courtroom.

From Wikipedia

btw she's being held in a special unit for celebrities/high-profile prisoners/cops-convicted-of-crimes/etc, she has it a lot easier than most county prisoners

I know people in Cali with a DUI + later driving-on-suspended who did 90 days, so Paris can take her "it's not fair" and stuff it up her nose

the great news is that evidently the cop who decided to let her out is a sc**ntol*g*st, so now we have the possibility of a sc**ntol*g*st Paris Hilton: good times!

a scient-you-know. . .that it explains it all.

I was wondering if some palms were greased in this. Maybe the Hilton's agreed to make a sizable donation to the Church of S.

Do you mean Nicky Hilton? she is also white. Unless you meant Nicole Ritchie. She's just aneorxic. (xpost)

yeah sorry I was thinkin of Ritchie

I'm glad she's back in the tank. She should hire a driver on 24/7 standby and make that part of her shtick, along with, like, being a famous asshole or whatever she does. Every year or so the latest driver will quit and write a tell-all about the screaming, the drugs and the thrown sharp objects. Worked for Keith Moon.

took me a second to find this:

Eddie: Right - I, the proposed accused, think that, well, I mean, you know, well the day in question was not a good day for me, all right? But I put it to you that I don't see how any day could have been good the way this bloody country's run. Well, you know, I was just trying to do my best, trying to get from A to B, do a little shopping. I was trying to take control of my life, you know, only to find that it's actually controlled for me by petty bureaucracy and bits of bloody paper - ignorant bloody petty rules and laws that just obstruct every tiny little action until you've committed a crime without even knowing it! I mean, you know, why can't life just be made a little easier for everybody, eh? Why can't it be more like the Continent, and then run down the street in front of charging bulls whilst letting fireworks off out of his bloody nostrils without anyone blinking an eye? Uh? Because it's probably a local holiday and nobody's at work because they all want to have just a little bit of fun and they're not intimidated by some outdated work ethic. I mean, there has to be more to life than just being safe ...
Judge: Is there a point to all of this?
Eddie: Yes, Yes! Why, oh why, do we pay taxes, hmmm? I mean, just to have bloody parking restrictions- and BUGGERY-UGLY traffic wardens, and BOLLOCKY-pedestrian-BLOODY-crossings?... and those BASTARD railings outside shops windows, so you can't even get in them! I mean, I know they're there to stop stupid people running into the street and killing themselves! But we're not all stupid! We don't all need nurse-maiding. I mean, why not just have a Stupidity Tax? Just tax the stupid people!
Patsy: [Stands up] And let them DIE!
Eddie: Yes!

michael, thank you for the information, that makes more sense.

xpost no one refers to "nicole richie" as "nikki" so that's completely bizarre to think that. also nicole richie is insanely famous.

I was wondering if some palms were greased in this.

as Dandy Don might say, you could bet your balls on it

i still think a couple of the men on this thread are insanely creepy, and also that ms misery is otm, again, about priorities etc.

hah i assumed shakey was joking. oh well

Nicole will likey be going to jail soon, too. Probably won't be much of a story b/c she'll take it a whole lot better.

oh just say kenan's name xxp

Isn't Nicole Ritchie half-Mexican, half-white? Adopted, right?

I'm going to hell for this...

can't we get a crying eagle in there somewhere?

(or maybe one of the Santorum children)

I think it captures the national mood perfectly well as it is.

nicole RICHIE ffs spell it right guys it's easy is adopted, yes

I believe Nicole is Hispanic and adopted into a black family.

It always boggles me when celebrities get DUIs. If I was rich one of the first things I'd do is hire a driver so I'd never have to think about going out and getting wasted again.

and then your driver would write a vicious tell-all book a year later (as has already been noted)

If I was rich one of the first things I'd do is hire a driver so I'd never have to think about going out and getting wasted again.

So very very OTM.

Let 'em blab! I'd probably have told everything on ILx by then anyway. . .

I'm not against schadenfreude but I'm not relishing her tears, I'm merely saying that she's actually so far got away with a lot more than my friend and several other posters's friends or selves have gotten away with and her sense of entitlement is not only offputting but it ain't gonna get her anywhere, now.

As Anatole France so pithily put it in La lys rouge, "The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread." However, it also sometimes treats wanton, self-important heiresses as cruelly as it treats the poor and the fact that she has had trouble finding the humility to own up to the crime and the time is, perhaps, sad but no more sad than when my friend went to jail and my friend and had the humility and the dignity to avoid any gestures that could seem like self-pity such as crying on the way in.

obviously humility is gonna have to be a learned character trait with Paris

Also, Sam so right about the driver thing.

Let 'em blab! I'd probably have told everything on ILx by then anyway.

hahaha hey you go girl. don't forget to wear underwear!

had the humility and the dignity to avoid any gestures that could seem like self-pity

you just described Bizarro Paris Hilton.

One thing for sure, she will be so terrified of going to jail again I doubt she will be drinking and driving or driving while suspended again.
It might actually change her for the better.

The other reason not to cry is that it merely inspires contempt in the worse kinds of asshole and as hard as fronting may be for her, being scorned, even in celebrity jail, is not a good way to start.

this is why i really enjoy having paris around - regardless of the rights/wrongs of the matter, so much of what she does ends up being so ridiculous. this is like britney and rehab, in out in out. and her sole action when at home yesterday was to...get luxury cupcakes delivered?? she should prob do her time even if she's being made an example of, but i don't think she's pathetic for trying to wriggle out of it or for crying. the people who get genuinely angered by her existence (the "AAARGH SHE IS AN ODIOUS HUMAN" types, i imagine the blood vessels in their forehead standing out whenever they think of her, ie like ALL THE TIME) are far more pathetic really.

she should get a driver though, yes.

if she'd been allowed to stay under house arrest, i hope she would have thrown a 23-day HOUSE PARTY.

michael all your reasons for not crying are good and true and the reason i, personally, don't cry, but i don't think it's a moral failing on anyone's part if they can't control their tears!

nothings more pathetic than an apologist

"you're pathetic!"
"no, you are!"

People, please, it's Paris Hilton. Can't we all come together as one, and enjoy a Simple Life marathon?

All this Paris nonsense has been detracting us all from a bigger story. . .LINDSAY! How long has she been in rehab now? When will she leave again to score?

WHEN WILL SHE STAB AGAIN

Yeah, see, the press sucks. Can't a girl just have some semi-violent drugged-up fun and not get shit for it?

http://www.slate.com/id/2167727/fr/flyout

oh lindsay. i would love to party with her but fear i'd be enabling her or something.

if i partied with lindsay, i would expect her to bring the coke. See? No enabling.

so lindsay's in rehab, paris is in jail, britney's lying low...who will step up in the next month for the celebutard cause?!

The real crime here is that the stupid Sheriff's office responded to it how they did.

Ms Misery so OTM it hurts.

lol at "celebutard"
