Medical problem my arse, its a celebrity status cop out.

[Grumpmeister]

Just because this talentless pointless vapid waste of space has a billionaire father and has managed to somehow acquire celebrity status. Had a regular member of the public been banged away for the same thing she was you can pretty much guarrantee that house arrest wouldnt have been made an option for this si called 'medical condition'

Celebrity heiress Paris Hilton has been released from jail after serving just three full days of her sentence.
But she will be kept under house arrest and must wear an electronic tag for another 40 days.

The decision was made as a result of a medical problem, but officials refused to give details of the condition.

When Hilton was originally sentenced to 45 days for violating probation on a drink-driving conviction, she was told there was no prospect of early release.

The sentence was later cut in half after being given credit for good behaviour.

Hilton has now been "reassigned" to house arrest 20 days before her revised jail term was due to end.

She will be "confined to her home" and must wear an ankle bracelet, according to Steve Whitmore of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

He said she would not be allowed out for parties or social functions.

I notice nothing has been said about her not being allowed to have social functions at her place though

Her full sentence - including the house arrest - has now reverted to the original 45 days.

 
Paris Hilton was in a special unit reserved for high-profile inmates
The authorities said she had officially served five days in jail - including Sunday night and the early hours of Thursday morning - meaning 40 days of house arrest will complete the sentence.

She had been held at the Century Regional Detention Centre in Lynwood, California.

The 26-year-old Simple Life star was separated from the main prison population in a block containing 12 cells, each holding two people.

It is reserved for celebrities, public officials, police officers and other high-profile inmates.

The heiress-turned-pop singer was arrested for driving under the influence last September and was issued probation, which she violated several times by driving with a suspended licence.

Before turning herself in to authorities on Sunday, she told reporters: "I'm definitely scared, but I'm ready to face my sentence."

Hilton was accompanied by her mother as she arrived at the jail. She was then fingerprinted, photographed, medically screened and issued with the jail's regulation orange jumpsuit.

After her first night in jail, her lawyer said she was doing well and would "reflect on her life, to see what she can do to make the world better".

Richard A Hutton said his client was "really being punished because of her celebrity".

Steve Whitmore, of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, said after she was admitted: "Her demeanour was helpful. She was focused, she was co-operative."

3 to 1 says she's "up the duff" and will sadly lose the baby shortly after the "house arrest" ends. Cynic? Moi???

[Barman]

Completely outrageous. 

[Grumpmeister]

Nah, if the penal service over there let her get off on that excuse they'd be lynched as soon as it hit the media.

Alright Darwin, get it out of the way, I know you want to make that into a double entendre  

[Misunderstood]

The proposed 'colour diary' isn't going to amount to much then is it?

I suspect she'll only get a few million for it.....   

[Grumpmeister]

Bouncer, you are a genius, that's it!!

She's eaten the crayons they gave her to write with and its upset her stomach

Most certainly not!

This is a serious topic and the poor girl is obviously a victim of the pressures of our celebrity-obsessed culture.

It would be quite inappropriate to make cheap jibes simply because your thesaurus failed to prevent the use of words like "penal", "get off" and "lynched".

The young lady is clearly unwell and looking for a reason to go home, obviously some kind-hearted judge has given her one.

[Grumpmeister]

The young lady is clearly unwell

Have those heartless swine been forcing her to listen to her own CD's? 

That racket is enough to make anyone feel unwell 

[Grumpmeister]

  I see the Shawskank redemption was booted back behind bars to serve the full sentence at the weekend. Wonder if we can judgenap him as he sounds like the kind of guy we need over here.

[Barman]

Let her out again then...

I heard on the news earlier that she had said her 'dumb blonde' image had just been an act and it was time to stop it now for the sake of her young fans who think she is a rolemodel. Acting? Bloody hell, that's an oscar performance if ever I've seen one.
