Paris Hilton was taken from a courtroom screaming and crying Friday seconds after a judge ordered her returned to jail to serve out her entire 45-day sentence for a parole violation in a reckless driving case.

VoDGuy, the sobbing pic is particularly strokeworthy.

Serves the dumb bitch right.

I get the feeling things went like this: Judge finds out Sheriff's Dept are ignoring him. Judge calls DA and yells. DA calls Mayor and screams, Mayor calls Sheriff and goes apeshit. Sheriff calls officers and pops a blood vessel.

Yeah man, that's my favorite. I really hope someone else got a better shot though, totally strokeworthy.

The dumb bitch could have avoided all this if she just didn't drive her car while on probation.

She's rich enough that she could've hired someone to drive her for the, what was it, 2 months her license was suspended. When I had my license suspended for 1 year for a dwi you can believe me I didn't do any driving. Lots of walking, taxis and bumming rides.

Not only that - I still wonder what might have been had she actually been in court on time. Judges HATE late defendants. And why didn't she get herself to court this morning, just to be sure? She needs every bonus point she can get with this judge, and appearing to actually make an effort of some sort would be a Really Good Idea.

(gotta wonder where her personal attorney was - dude has got to understand this - if Paris won't listen to her lawyer he ought to withdraw)

Ever wonder why co-workers sometimes start riding bicycles to work? It's not always for the exercise...

The Sheriff added to her problems. The Sheriff's dept initially refused to pick her up (remember she's still officially in custody while under house arrest) and stated that she would call into the proceeding. The judge heard that on the radio on his way to work and went nuts. She was caught in the middle of a turf war between the Sheriff who runs the jails and who stays and goes and a judge with a hardon for a bimbo who thinks she's above it all. Remember, she got caught driving twice on a suspended license and oh by the way, something that hasn't been in the press lately, she was suppose to attend an alcohol eduction program within a certain number of days and blew that off too.

The chickens are roosting and she can do her time.

My friend has the cupcakes Paris gave to the media last night in celebration of her release before she got sent back to the clink today. We're throwing said cupcakes over the fence into the hills. Maybe a coyote will eat them. I apologize for the one that landed in the pool behind us.

And you get to keep your avitar for at least three more weeks.......wooooohoooooo.

I can't find a bigger version of this one.

This is as big as I can get it without distortion.

I think she should be sent back to jail but only for the twenty something days she was originally required to stay there. The stuff up was the sheriff's fault so she shouldn't have to serve extra time in jail

So you don't consider bribery a fault?

Quote:

That is the question of the year. I really can't see the sherif playing Capt. Save a Ho, especially since its prolly going to cost him his job. What was in it for him to not only release her, but do it without notifying the court or DA?

But I think its still only 23 days. And I think the judge is going to tranfer her to a psych ward next week.

Sheriff under fire in Paris Hilton case
By MICHAEL BLOOD, Associated Press Writer
Fri Jun 8, 9:19 PM ET

LOS ANGELES - This is not the first time that Lee Baca, the sheriff who opened the jail door for Paris Hilton, has had his judgment questioned.

He's been accused of using his authority to benefit friends and supporters. Since taking office he's accepted thousands of dollars worth of freebie meals, sports tickets and trips.

Now Baca is facing accusations of favoritism after making the decision that allowed Hilton to leave jail Thursday to serve out her sentence at her West Hollywood home.

He dismissed that criticism, saying Friday that Hilton had been ordered to spend an unusually long time behind bars.

Under his department's early release program, Hilton would not have served any time in jail and would have been put on home electronic monitoring, Baca said.

"The special treatment, in a sense, appears to be because of her celebrity status," he said. "She got more time in jail."

After ordering Hilton back to her cell Friday, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer said he "at no time condoned the actions of the sheriff."

The union representing deputy sheriffs demanded that Baca "put a stop to his special treatment for celebrity inmates." And county Supervisor Don Knabe said he was stunned to find out Baca released Hilton without consulting the court.

"I would have thought he would have better judgment than that," Knabe said.

The county Board of Supervisors will demand a report on Hilton's release and Baca's decision-making in the matter, Knabe said.

For Baca, 65, who has led the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department since 1998, the blowback is not extraordinary.

When Mel Gibson was arrested for drunken driving, the department withheld video and audio tapes of the arrest, asserting they were exempt from open-government laws.

There were questions about favorable treatment for Gibson after a sheriff's spokesman initially said the arrest occurred "without incident" and made no mention of the superstar's now-notorious anti-Semitic rant.

"When a celebrity is involved, that's when people pay attention," said Robert Stern of the Center for Governmental Studies, a research group. "The big question ... is why didn't the sheriff go to the judge" before Hilton was released.

Baca has dismissed criticism over the decision.

Last year, the Los Angeles Times reported Baca put one of his closest friends on the payroll as a $105,000-a-year adviser.

The newspaper also said he had accepted more than $42,000 in gifts since taking office, including some from those who do business with his department.

In 2004, he took more gifts than California's other 57 sheriffs combined.

Baca oversees an 8,000-officer force that has been vexed by low morale, tight budgets, overcrowded jails and the persistence of gang crime.

Jonathan Wilcox, a Republican strategist who teaches a course on politics and celebrity at the University of Southern California, said Baca may be caught between public expectations and the reality of the criminal justice system:

"Sheriff Baca needs to be very concerned with at least the impression that the final frontier — the law — is now as affected by celebrity as almost every other aspect of our lives."

Remind me again when country sheriffs started reviewing judicial sentencing decisions?

If the sheriff gets into a contempt order from the judge and appeals he's just cost himself a bunch of points with whoever he has to convince that he has the right to reduce a sentence because he looked at the trial court's sentence and decided it was unfair.

okay, i just saw this, and i spat out my peanut butter sandwich: The pal said: “It’s so cruel what has happened to her. She wasn’t allowed to wax or use a moisturiser. Her skin is so dry right now.”

While it is certainly not the sheriff's place to overrule the judge, the concensus of CA attorneys was that her sentence was out of line with the norm. Not one of the few attys who supported the sentence could cite another case where such an amount of time was given for a similar offence.

I've noticed quite a bit of variance in the response from LA Lawyers I've seen on the various news shows. Robert Shapiro made it very clear that the sentence was ridicuously high for DUI. HOWEVER, she was not sent to jail for the DUI, but for repeated violations of the probation she got for the DUI.

A retired judge on CNN last night was very clear that the sentence was not out of line for someone who appeared to be wilfuly flouting the judicial system.

I don't have any idea of sentencing guidelines but I get a certain amount of satisfaction in the fact that she is back in jail mere hours after throwing herelf a dinner party while on home detention.

Looks good on her to be on international TV looking like shit.

If she completes the sentence just think of the "street cred" she'll have.

Yes, wonder which jailhouse Tatt she's going to get??

For the rest of her life people are going to shout out "Mommy Its Not Fair" wherever she goes.

That sheriff is too "big time" to sell out for just 1K!

Of course he wouldn't sell out for 1K. Who said he did? This is just circumstantial stuff. You know a "fix" when you see one... nobody is going to post "evidence" for you to look at and say - aha! That's the nature of the beast. But, my rule of thumb is: If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it probably is a duck.


I never thought I would have to quote this horrible paper: New York Post

June 8, 2007 -- PERHAPS it was her dedication to positive thinking. Or maybe it was her prayers at the Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Beverly Hills.

But if you believe that, then the wheels have fallen off your trolley.

The fix was in!

And it was all the work of Paris Hilton's scheming lawyer, Richard Hutton, and her superbly ruthless spinmeister, p.r. agent Elliot Mintz.

Now let's get the facts, Jack. If mood and body language are any guide, Paris was burning last week on Thursday when I talked to her as she worked out at the gym. She was so deflated, she acted like she was facing 25 years to life of hard time.

But on Friday night, when she was spied at Area nightclub, she breathed enough air kisses to blow up a balloon.

Self-absorbed? Absolutely. But more importantly, happy!

That's because she knew then that "the fix" was in.

No bribery occurred, of course. But attorney Hutton knew there was wiggle room in L.A. County jail procedure. He worked on securing a sweet deal with the sheriff, as Mintz choreographed her surrender.

Think about this: Paris turned herself in the last hours of Sunday, L.A. time - too late for nearly all the East Coast newspapers, which are more interested in this story than the L.A. Times.

Getting out of jail early yesterday morning was another masterpiece. Reporters left the scene about 2 a.m.

Shortly afterward, Paris splits the slammer. No pictures of her with straggly hair or no makeup.

But honestly, what can we expect from a company town?

How come O.J. Simpson and Robert Blake skated on legal thin ice and breathe fresh air today?

Would Detroit, a company town, hang a Ford executive in effigy if he committed the same offense as Paris Hilton? Of course not.

Do we throw eggs at Dick Grasso, formerly of the New York Stock Exchange, for his grotesque remuneration? Of course not.

So why would we expect anything from La La Land, which long ago replaced God with craven images - celebrities like Paris Hilton.
