Paris Hilton may go back to jail
Not so fast there, missy...
LOS ANGELES - Paris Hilton is headed for a courtroom showdown Friday that could put her back behind bars, as prosecutors sought to hold sheriff's officials in contempt for releasing her early from jail.
Oh, well, Let's get her back in so they won't have room for us...
Hilton was ordered to report to court at 9 a.m. and will be brought in a sheriff's vehicle from her Hollywood Hills home, said Superior Court spokesman Allan Parachini.
Does the sheriff's department have limos?
The frenzy began early Thursday when sheriff's officials released Hilton because of an undisclosed medical condition and sent her home under house arrest. She had been in jail for three days. Hilton was fitted with an electronic monitoring ankle bracelet and was expected to finish her 45-day sentence for a reckless driving probation violation at her four-bedroom, three-bath home.
Maybe she'll go swimming with it on an electrocute herself...
No such luck, it's the low voltage model ... | The decision by Sheriff Lee Baca to move Hilton chafed prosecutors and Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer, who spelled out during sentencing that Hilton was not allowed to serve house detention.
Maybe he should've spelled it in Spanish...
Late Thursday, Sauer issued the order for Hilton to return to court after the city attorney filed a petition demanding that Hilton be returned to jail and to show cause why Baca shouldn't be held in contempt of court. Baca does not have to be in court, and it was unclear who would represent the Sheriff's Department.
You! Hack underling! Get down there and take one for the team!
The move also was met with outrage from the sheriff's deputies union, members of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, civil rights leaders, defense attorneys and others."What transpired here is outrageous," county Supervisor Don Knabe told The Associated Press, adding he received more than 400 angry e-mails and hundreds more phone calls from around the country. Hilton's return home "gives the impression of ... celebrity justice being handed out," he said.
Noooooooo! How could anybody think that?
Far better to imprison some lower working class mope who did a DUI and let the celebrities go free. They're special you know, they bring joy and happiness into our otherwise dismal lives. | Baca dismissed the criticism, saying the decision was made based on medical advice."It isn't wise to keep a person in jail with her problem over an extended period of time and let the problem get worse," Baca told the Los Angeles Times on Thursday.
Ewwww. Wonder what her "problem" was?
She was depressed. She was in jail. You'd be depressed too ... | "My message to those who don't like celebrities is that punishing celebrities more than the average American is not justice," Baca said.
Damn straight, sherrif!
Yeah! You tell'em, OJ!
See! Even Baretta agrees with me! Free Phil Spector! Free Phil Spector!!
In the hours after Hilton's release, it was a madcap scene outside her house in the hills above the Sunset Strip. As word spread that the 26-year-old poster child for bad celebrity behavior was back home, radio helicopter pilots who normally report on traffic conditions were dispatched to hover over her house and describe it to morning commuters. Paparazzi photographers on the ground quickly assembled outside its gates.
Sounds just like when Paris orders pizza...
Maybe a chopper would crash into a nest of paparazzi, and we'd get a two-fer ... | Shortly before noon, Hilton issued a statement through her attorney."I want to thank the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and staff of the Century Regional Detention Center for treating me fairly and professionally," she said. "I am going to serve the remaining 40 days of my sentence. I have learned a great deal from this ordeal and hope that others have learned from my mistakes."
You'll never take me alive coppers!
Like how to cry her way out of jail ... |
