Paris Hilton's flack falls on his sword, takes the hit

Now that Paris Hilton is destined for 45 days in the hole, news comes that the man that Paris partially blames, publicist Elliot Mintz, is falling on his sword and taking the blame for her "not understanding" she cannot drive on a suspended license. Mintz has been fired by the hotel heiress, and spokesperson-less Paris Hilton has commented on the jail term on her own, describing her punishment as cruel and unwarranted.
Paris Hilton wept as she was sentenced to 45 days in jail in a suburban Los Angeles lock up.

Her mother voiced her displeasure at the judge and legal system that targeted her daughter, according to her.
At the hearing, Paris Hilton laid blame on Elliot Mintz who she said told her that it was okay to drive for work-related reasons.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Sauer rejected the claim that Paris Hilton thought she was allowed to drive and ordered her to turn herself in by June 5th.


Saturday, Hilton spoke to photographers, and according to Reuters, Hilton said: "I told the truth. I feel that I was treated unfairly and that the sentence is both cruel and unwarranted. I don't deserve this.

"
The Associated Press reports that, at the hearing, Paris Hilton tried to convince the judge that she only followed the orders of her publicist.
Paris Hilton told the judge, when asked if she read the mail sent to her about the license suspension, "I have people who do that for me. I just sign what people tell me to sign.

"
Powerhouse attorney Howard Weitzman has already filed an appeal to try and get the sentence handed down to his client reduced.
Elliot Mintz took the stand to testify on behalf of Paris Hilton, but, according to Reuters, his testimony was rejected as worthless by the judge.
Mintz told TMZ on Sunday that he was deeply and profoundly sorry for giving Paris Hilton bad advice.

He told the site, "Due to this misunderstanding, I am no longer representing Paris. For the record, I have nothing but love and respect for Paris and her family. Paris is a wonderful person and does not deserve the punishment that was handed down by the court.

I only wish her my best."
In September, Paris Hilton was arrested for DUI and, after pleading no contest in January, Paris was sentenced to three years probation and had her license suspended.
One month later Hilton was popped driving at night without her headlights on.

When she was pulled over, police impounded her blue Bentley and charged her with driving without a valid license, which violated her probation and landed her the 45-day jail sentence.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Drive drunk ~ pay the price you spoiled brat!

!

If she signed a legal document without reading it, she is stupid.
If this were someone without money, it wouldn't be an issue.

They'd go straight to jail without passing go.
The law applies to everyone, including the privileged.
Poor little rich girl got what she deserved and in true Paris form, blames everybody else but herself.

I wonder if any of the other drivers who were on the same road as the drunken tramp were on their way to stay at the nearest Hilton?
Hopefully she will grow up while in jail..

...

naw, she won't.

that girl has all the money and no class. she has the power to make a difference in the world but uses her wealth to be an example of how not to be.

what a waste. perhaps one day she'sll grow up and become wise..

.

She is spoiled, and stupid. See when you party every night of the week and then drive you're bound to get busted.

Everyone saw it coming except her. I am glad to see the legal system act fairly despite her wealth. She should just consider herself lucky they didn't take a urine sample cause all the drugs would have shown up.

Enjoy your youth and beauty now Paris, cause in 10 years your going to be a very weathered and burned out hag.

Hey ParisMay 7th, 2007 - 15:39:36
GIVE HER THE DEATH PENALTY! :) Honestly though, I have a few friends who have gotten D.

U.I.'s and have suspended licenses.

THEY DON'T DRIVE BECAUSE IT'S ILLEGAL! It's about time she served some time. The little brat deserves that sentence.


What about the word 'suspended' doesn't she understand???


Paris Hilton better watch her back in the Century Regional Detention Facility, visitors who were at the jail yesterday warned.
'If you act like you're all high-class and uppity,' Denise Chavis said, 'you're done.'
About 150 men and women were waiting outside the jail yesterday - along with Chavis - to see family and friends.

Many said they believed the 26-year-old Hilton was in for a strong dose of reality.
'My ex-wife got beat up and got a black eye in this place,' said a man, who declined to give his name out of fear of retribution against the woman.
And Hilton better hope the inmates don't remember the videotape broadcast widely on YouTube that shows her mocking Jewish and African-American people.

'She better learn to bite her tongue,' he said.
If she does report to the jail, Hilton will likely be living in a one- or two-person cell and segregated from the general population for her safety as a high-profile inmate.
A woman who gave her name only as Melanie and whose mother is in the jail on a narcotics charge said Hilton better thank her lucky stars for the extra security.


She said the general population showers together and that a large group of 'very masculine lesbians' prey on them.
'This is bad,' she said. 'She's not going to make it.

'
Hilton will have to say 'goodbye' to dye jobs and cosmetics and 'hello' to five-minute showers once a day.
Her friends and family will only be able to talk to her through glass and her phone calls will be made on the jail's closely monitored pay phones.
Purse-pooch, Tinkerbell, will not be allowed to visit.

And forget those designer duds she bought on Rodeo Drive.
In the big house, Paris will have to make two pairs of socks, one bra, two pairs of panties and two blue jumpsuits last for a week.
'You have to take your underwear and wash them out in the shower,' said Chavis, whose sister has been in the jail for the past month on a stolen car charge.

'The only thing you're allowed for makeup is a lipliner.'
Hilton also won't find any 600-thread-count sheets or chocolates on her pillow.
Instead, she'll get a stainless steel cot topped by a thin mattress, one thin sheet and one scratchy wool blanket.


'The bedding is very minimal,' said Debbie Day, whose 25-year-old daughter is locked up on a counterfeit bill charge. 'And my daughter says the food is disgusting.'
Paris would start her days in jail with a hard-boiled egg, a bowl of cold cereal and a small carton of milk.


And for lunch?
'They get baloney and bread with either mustard or mayonnaise, sometimes an apple and some watered down juice,' said Chavis. 'For dinner, they do get a hot meal.

'
Suzanna Twaite, who was at the jail to visit a friend, said she hopes Paris gets no special treatment. 'I think she should be housed with the general population,' she said. 'I think she should find out what it's like in here.

'
Nick DiOrio said that his 40-year-old girlfriend is currently in the jail. 'She says she'd rather be in state prison than be here,' he said. 'This is worse.
