Her fiery screams and sizzling tears were not enough to melt the cold, cold heart of justice.
In a real-life drama that could easily be mistaken for scenes in a day-time soap, Paris Hilton was sent screaming and crying back to jail on Friday after a judge ruled that she must serve out her sentence behind bars rather than in the comfort of her Hollywood Hills home.

Paris Hilton is seen crying inside the police car taking her back to jail in Los Angeles.
“It’s not right!” shouted Hilton, who violated her probation in a reckless driving case. “Mom!” she cried out to her mother.
Hours earlier, the 26-year-old hotel heiress was taken handcuffed from her home in a black-and-white police car, paparazzi sprinting in pursuit and helicopters broadcasting live from above. She entered the courtroom disheveled and weeping, hair askew, without makeup, wearing a fuzzy gray sweat shirt over slacks.
She cried throughout the hearing, dabbing her eyes, and her body shook constantly. Several times she turned to her parents, seated behind her in the courtroom, and mouthed, “I love you.”
Hilton’s entire body trembled as the final verdict was made for her further incarceration. She clutched a ball of tissue and tears ran down her face.
Seconds later, the judge announced his decision: “The defendant is remanded to county jail to serve the remainder of her 45-day sentence. This order is forthwith.”
Hilton screamed.
Eight deputies immediately ordered all spectators out of the courtroom. Hilton’s mother, Kathy, threw her arms around her husband, Rick, and sobbed uncontrollably.
Deputies escorted Hilton out of the room, holding each of her arms as she looked back.
Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer castigated Sheriff Lee Baca for the latter’s earlier decision to release Hilton three days into her sentence due to an unspecified “medical condition.”
“I at no time condoned the actions of the sheriff and at no time told him I approved the actions,” Sauer said. “At no time did I approve the defendant being released from custody to her home.”
Hilton’s attorney, Richard Hutton, implored the judge to order a hearing in his chambers to hear testimony about Hilton’s medical condition before making a decision. The judge did not respond to that suggestion.
Another of her attorneys, Steve Levine, said, “The sheriff has determined that because of her medical situation, (jail) is a dangerous place for her.”
Hilton’s twisted jailhouse saga began Sept. 7, when she failed a sobriety test after police saw her weaving down a street in her Mercedes-Benz on what she said was a late-night hamburger run.
She pleaded no contest to reckless driving and was sentenced to 36 months’ probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines. In the months that followed she was stopped twice while driving on a suspended license. The second stop landed her in Sauer’s courtroom.
What to do with poor, poor Paris? There should be a compromise that would not violate or demean the law but at the same time keep Paris from suffering from unnecessary emotional distress which could affect her wellbeing.
The law, no matter how harsh, would not want people to suffer needlessly.
So, any bright idea out there on what compromise need to be done in Paris’ case?
For me, well, since house arrest has been ruled out, may be allowing her most precious possession to join her in jail could alleviate her misery. So … let the doggie out of the house and into her prison cell!
Arf! Arf! Arf! See, the doggie is already excited to join the hotel heiress!

One of the biggest things I’m raving about here in the USA are those tech gas pumps. You know what I’d mean if I say their pretty secure, fast and easy to use. I remember in Asia when I’d pull into a gas station how I’d hand over my credit card to a gas attendant [...]
Like many young people, I never thought I would find myself facing serious credit card debt. In my early twenties, I told myself that I would never fall into any debt trap. I had heard so many horror stories, and I just knew I would not live out one of those.
Boy, was I [...]

We’re right smack in the middle of the Winter Olympics. Have your kids gotten into the spirit of it all yet? It saddens me that today, some kids would rather play sports via the PlayStation (or any other gaming console) than actually go outdoors and kick some butt. With the Winter Olympics [...]
Every house has a first aid kit. That is basic knowledge. But do you have an emergency kit that will help keep you alive just in case you experience a natural disaster? At this point, many families in the Philippines are creating their own disaster emergency kits, if they haven’t got one [...]

10|Jun|2007I knew this was too good for you to pass up! ^_^
I actually feel sorry for Paris. I’m not saying she deserves it because she does. I would have hated it if they didn’t send her back. I feel sorry for her though because she was raised the way she was. Some are disgusted at her for being spoiled I am mad at her parents for spoiling her. This might be a good wake up call for her though. I hope it does put some sense in her. She just isn’t grounded at all. She needs a reality check. Hope this is it.
She doesn’t need her misery to be alleviated by the way…I think what she needs is to understand what misery is all about. Maybe then she’ll realize that the world doesn’t revolve around her.

10|Jun|2007You hit the bullseye with your comment, Hannahgrace! Yes, Paris doesn’t need her misery to be alleviated. OK, bring the doggie back to its cage inside her palatial house.
I do think she’ll come out a better person after this. The latest news is that she’s accepted her fate and that she would not anymore press for special treatment.
See, the lesson of pain and suffering is slowly sinking in.
Probably this is the reason why there’s pain and suffering in this world. But I’m going off-tangent already.

12|Jun|2007i read the snippet on AOL. would you believe that your article, Jay, is more comprehensive?! i am thoroughly impressed now! way to go jay!
as for poor paris.. i actually feel for her. but i know, you guys are right. she needs this to wake up. i wouldn’t have woken up if God did not expose me to pain either.
i just hope the chaplain or some prison ministry missionaries would get to her and tell her of hope in Jesus. ever since i saw her bathtub video, i saw the vulnerability in her eyes and how she knows she’s being used and yet she continues to live in excess; why? she is looking for something we are all looking for.. but anyway. :p

Pour her another drink!
That dumb cunt drove her car drunk on MY streets where MY children play and MY husband and I drive.
Fuck her. She deserves jail and she needs to know that writing a check can’t fix everything.
She could have killed someone not just injured them (like she does every time she passes along her Herpes).
