What a Farce

Early May'2007 Paris Hilton gets a sentence of 45 days for violating a probation for a DUI case of last year.

Even before sentence starts its reduced by half to just 23 days......!

Official Reason: On the last day of her case, she appears in courts only 10 mins late..not more..which she could have easily if, say she had a hangover from previous night's party!
Also she was very regular for her hearings..never missed one....
Judge considers this very "good behaviour" and does not hesitate for a second to slash her sentence by half.

3 days back her sentence starts and she goes to Jail and comes out this morning (in fact hours before)!

Official Reason (yet to be posted):
Some says medical condition..she was not eating Jail Food and was not Sleeping? Did she read Mahatma Gandhi?

Some are saying Unnecessary Media attention..which Jail authorities couldn't handle....but it can't be official.

So a deal was struck to give her 40 days of Hilton Home Stay "arrest" instead..which Hiltons agreed.
I am sure Britney and Nicole are packing their bags now to move over there for next 40 days!

Yes..it is happening in today's USA and a liberal and intellectual state like CA and city like LA.
Money and Fame can buy anything for sure..including Justice...How Disgusting!

I hope there is a big outcry/protests for this because "Injustice Anywhere is a THREAT to Justice Everywhere". Had MLK lived today he would have modified his quote as "Insult to Justice Anywhere is THREAT to Justice Everywhere". Can we afford that?

UPDATE on 8th June 2007:
She is being sent back to Jail, after Court overruled Sheriff's decision to let her be on House Arrest instead of being in Jail. So...after much said and done it seem finally the Justice System Prevailed!
