Paris Hilton Ordered Back to Jail!

Paris Hilton is returning to jail.
L.A. Superior Court Judge Michael Sauer ordered Hilton on Friday to return to the Century Regional Detention Facility in suburban Lynwood, just one day after sheriff's officials released her to house arrest. The judge also ruled that Hilton will have to serve the remainder of her 45-day sentence in the jail facility.
Following the decision, Hilton was escorted from the courtroom by two deputies as she screamed, “Mom! Mom! Mom!”
"This is cruel," Kathy Hilton told Usmagazine.com after the ruling.
A court spokesman told reporters that the "medical issues" that jail officials had cited as a reason for her early release "were not addressed"
in the hour-long hearing.
Fox News contributor Greta Van Susteren, who sat in the courtroom just a few feet from Hilton, reported afterward on Hilton's appearance: "She shakes, she twitches, she quivers. She's sick. There's something wrong with her. ...This is a woman who needs some medical attention."
Earlier in the day AT 10:15 a.m. PST, L.A. County Sheriff's officers reportedly handcuffed Paris Hilton at her Hollywood Hills home and transported her in a patrol car to a downtown L.A. courthouse. Hilton could be seen sobbing as the car pulled from her home.
Shortly after Hilton's arrival at the courthouse, her parents, Rick and Kathy Hilton, entered amid a media frenzy.
Less than a day after Hilton left jail to serve the rest of her 45-day sentence at home, Judge Saur ordered Hilton to appear in person at a scheduled courtroom hearing on Friday morning where it will be decided if she will have to return to jail. Though Hilton was initially going to be teleconferenced in to the meeting, Judge Sauer demanded that the L.A. County Sheriff Department fetch the heiress from her home and ferry her to the courthouse.
In addition to asking the court to send Hilton back to jail, prosecutors also sought to hold L.A. County Sheriff’s officials in contempt for releasing her early.
At 2:09 a.m. on Thursday, sheriff's officials released Hilton from the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood, California, due to an
undisclosed “medical condition." She was then fitted with an electronic monitoring ankle bracelet and sent to finish out the last 40 days of her
sentence under house arrest at her four-bedroom, three-bath home.
(Hilton was originally ordered to serve a 45-day jail sentence for violating her probation, but last month the term was reduced to 23 days on account of good behavior before she had even set foot in jail. While she only spent a little more than three days in the slammer, she was credited with having served five days of her sentence.)
The decision by Sheriff Lee Baca to reassign Hilton to house arrest angered prosecutors and Judge Michael Sauer, who specifically
ruled during sentencing that Hilton was not allowed to serve house detention.
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.
"What transpired here is outrageous," county Supervisor Don Knabe told the Associated Press, adding that Hilton's return home "gives the impression of... celebrity justice being handed out.”
Baca dismissed the criticism, saying the decision was made based on advice from medical professionals.
"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.
"My message to those who don't like celebrities is that punishing celebrities more than the average American is not justice," Baca said.
Hilton’s legal trouble began last September when she failed a sobriety test after police saw her weaving down a street in her Mercedes-Benz.
She pleaded no contest to reckless driving and was sentenced to 36 months' probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines.
In the following months, Hilton was pulled over on two separate occasions by cops who discovered her driving on a suspended license.
Hours after her release on Thursday, Hilton issued the following 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 know, there are some posts on this page talking about how if Paris was anyone else that she would not be serving time or at least not 45 days. Let me ask you, where are you from? In Kansas, a person will get 30 days on their FIRST DUI, the 2nd you get 90, and the 3rd you get a year. 3rd DUI and after is a felony. So, for Paris you serve a little time in jail for a DUI, I think, is warranted. A DUI? That is nothing to sneeze at. She could have hurt someone or even killed someone, including herself. I just don't get it. If I was a rich snobby celeb, I would pay someone to drive me around if I wanted to drink. DUH!!!!! I think that Paris is making more of a big deal about this whole thing. Poor Paris, please, she wasn't worried about anything at all when she was drinking and driving, then getting "caught" with driving on suspended TWO MORE TIMES AFTER A DUI!!! This chick will never learn that she is NOT above the law. She has it made in jail anyways, private area away from population. Cry me a river!!! Please! As far as her medical condition.... her medical condition is probably that she doesn't have all of her accessories, or blackberry. She now has a hard bed with a thin pillow and a very well decorated bright shinny toilet. That is "HOT!!"

i think this whole situation was blown out of proportion. i know someone who only did a week in jail and another person who had 3 DUI's on a suspended license and only got the monitor for a month. they're just picking on her cause she's a celebrity and that's not fair no matter how much people don't like her.

If it was anyone else they would have gave them more time in jail just because she has money she is getting off easy. Her mom needs to sit with her behind bars. She acts like she did nothing wrong she could have killed someone.

this is an outrage that they put this girl in prison
when the truth is a regular person would never have gone to jail for this
i think the mocking and the fact that everyone is getting a thrill out of this is so disgusting , i feel so sorry for her and i think the system is terribly flawed
i hope she gets out on monday

yep, 11.31, her serious medical condition is that there's no full length mirror for her to fall in love with herself...I don't think it's illicit drug withdrawal, because they get that in jail anyway. I know someone who was in jail with a celebrity and a celebrity's brother, and they were always, ALWAYS getting special favors, and the brother, the celeb, was shipping in all kinds of drugs through the prison guards...because of that, i believe paris had access to her drugs. i think she just didn't want to be there and so they made up some mysterious medical condition only to say it's confidential to say what the condition is. if it's so confidential, then why are they even saying she has a medical condition?

Her spokesperson the Sheriff said that she had "secret" medical conditions, and that she did not want to take her medications, and wanted to go home, so they sent her home, Nobody cared that the poor judge had given her a sentence.

and what if she had the sherrif paid off to be released early? she should still be held accountable for just 23 days? I think not. I think 1. the sherrif should be fired, 2. HE should be indicted, even if he wasn't paid off, 3. she should have more charges of bribery brought against her if that is indeed what happened, and if it was not her but her family, then they should be held accountable for bribery.
5:41 PM Rather say this anonymously... Says:
Okay, while I think it's fair she serve 23 days in jail, why should she be penalized for what the sheriff officials did and be forced to serve the original 45 days that was later reduced to 23? They're the ones in control and they're the ones who let her out against the judges orders, so why is she being punished for their actions?

Ok - probable medical issue. paris threatens to end her life, and because she is a celebrity the sheriff doesn't want to be associated in case she dies or something - so therefore he is freaked out - because then the hiltons will hammer down and complain that the government killed their daughter...etcetcetc hence, he wants to get her out of his jail. even though people do this all the time, begging for mercy, not everyone is a socialite. just guessing.

paris's mother should be in jail to Says:
Paris when are you going to grow up?Stop whining,you messed up.Your deranged mommy and daddy can't buy you out of everything.I feel bad that your hurting and on the verge of a breakdown but think of the breakdown you will cause the family of someone you kill because you had to drink and drive.Get some backbone for christ sake,suck it up,accept your consequences,you don't want us thinking your not being treated with kid gloves yet you whine and snivel and carry on like you were being sentenced to death.It's sickening and sad at the same time and your mother should be right along side with you.It should be a crime for parents to turn kids loose in the streets to run wild,drinking and driving and no parental guidance.For a mother to practically celebrate"hey my daughter made a porn tape"!My god what kind of people ARE you?

I don't feel bad for her at all. This is what should happen to a person who repeatedly breaks the law. The L.A. Judicial System should have sent her here to AZ's "Tent City", then she'd really have something to cry about! 100 degree weather, jump suits, and yummy 15 cent green bologna sandwich's.

How naive is everyone is CA? If she is shaking, and twitching, and sick it is because she is in withdrawls. We all know she is a heavy drug user and she was in jail for 3 whole days...of course she would be in withdrawls. She probably went home and got a buzz ans now has to go back to jail...so I am sure she will be shaking even harder in a few days. Poor thing lol

Poor girl! I feel so bad for her... I think the judge is just doing this to make himself look better to those who think she should do her time. it was a honest mistake! if it was any other normal person she wouldnt be going through this and it wouldnt matter that she got let go early. but bc she is who she is it has turned into this. its very sad to me.

She made a fool of herself. You'd think she was being locked away for life. I wish she would go wacko, shut herself up in her mansion so I wouldn't have to look at her skinny butt in the news anymore.
Pathetic waste of life.

Ok, so if I ever get sentenced to a jail sentence in L.A, I know that shaking, twitching, crying and citing 'psychiatric' issues is enough for the Sheriff to let me go home. Good to know...
What kind of precedent does this set for the current Lynwood prisoners? If I were there I would be mega PISSED OFF and feel cheated, mistreated and insulted beyond measure.
If Paris Hilton genuinely does have psychiatric issues, she should serve out her sentence in a psychiatric jailing unit. THAT IS WHAT THEY DO IN THE REAL WORLD AND WHEN PRISONERS HAVE GENUINE PSYCHIATRIC DIAGNOSIS'. Frankly, it is disguisting and insulting to taxpayers and members of the mental health community that Baca is pulling the 'nervous breakdown' card for Paris. Was she so mentally distraught on the MTV red carpet just hours before presenting herself for her inital sentence? Doubtful at best.
Baca must have really 'appreciated' that campaign donation from the Hilton family last year. He has officially lost all credibility. Disguisting.
