"(AP) LOS ANGELES A judge has sentenced Paris Hilton to 45 days in Los Angeles County jail for violating her probation in a reckless driving case--putting the breaks on the hotel heiress' famous high life.
Hilton, who parlayed her name and relentless partying into worldwide notoriety, must go to jail on June 5 and she will not be allowed any work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or any electronic monitoring in lieu of jail, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer ruled after a hearing.
The judge ruled that she was in violation of the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.
"I'm very sorry and from now on I'm going to pay complete attention to everything. I'm sorry and I did not do it on purpose
at all," she told the judge before announced the sentence.
She was then ordered to report to women's jail in suburban Lynwood.
Hilton pleaded no contest in January to reckless driving stemming from a Sept. 7 arrest in Hollywood. She was sentenced to 36 months probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines.
She was pulled over by California Highway Patrol on Jan. 15. Officers informed Hilton she was driving on a suspended license and she signed a document acknowledging she was not to drive, according to court papers. She was pulled over by Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies on Feb. 27 for speeding and driving without her headlights, at which time she was charged with violating her probation.
Hilton's spokesman, Elliot Mintz, said at the time that she wasn't aware her license was suspended.
Prosecutors say by signing the document Hilton knew she was not allowed to drive. They also note that as of April 17 she had yet to enroll in the alcohol education program.
"These violations demonstrate Hilton's disregard for the vehicle laws of this state as well as for the conditions of her probation," the court filing said. "This court should ... include imprisonment as a condition of reinstating her probation." - Associated Press
Pardon my language, but about fucking time.
I love this quote from her,
"I'm very sorry and from now on I'm going to pay complete attention to everything. I'm sorry and I did not do it on purpose
at all,"
Idiot.
