Nearly a week after being returned to jail from a 24-hour stint under home-imprisonment, Paris Hilton was transferred late on Wednesday from a Los Angeles county jail's medical ward back to the detention centre where her incarceration saga began 12 days ago.
An outraged judge had sent the celebrity inmate back to the downtown correctional treatment centre last week after her brief release to home confinement caused an uproar.
Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore said on Thursday that Hilton was transferred back to an all-women's jail because her medical condition was stable after nearly a week-long treatment at the health clinic of the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, a Los Angeles suburb.
"Her condition will continue to be monitored," Whitmore said.
Hilton's troubles began in September when the socialite was arrested for drunken driving. She was charged with driving under the influence of intoxicant and driving with a blood alcohol level over California's legal limit of .08. Hilton had pleaded not guilty of drunk driving in January, and was sentenced to 36 months’ probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines.
The high profile celebrity blonde, who checked herself into Los Angeles jail late last Sunday night (June 3), one and a half day before her deadline, was released from the county jail Thursday (June 7) by Sheriff Lee Baca because of an unspecified medical condition.
After spending three days in the slammer, the 26-year-old willowy hotel heiress was sent to her $2.1 million mansion with silk sheets, servants and a pool in the hills above Sunset Strip, with an electronic ankle bracelet to monitor her movements. Hilton was told she could finish her sentence under house arrest, meaning she could not leave her four-bedroom, three-bathroom home in the Hollywood Hills until next month.
But, Judge Michael T. Sauer called Hilton back to his courtroom last Friday and apparently unmoved by the pleas of her three lawyers to send her back to home confinement due to an undisclosed medical condition (later defined as psychological), ordered heiress to report back to jail to complete her sentence for violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.
The reality TV star was then taken to the downtown Twin Towers jail, the world’s largest facility which houses male inmates and the county's medical treatment center, where she went through medical and psychiatric tests to determine where she should be held.
Adding more to her woes, Endeavor, a major Hollywood talent agency which represented her for two years, said Tuesday that it has dropped the reality show star.
Parents of young actress and model Paris Hilton visited their daughter Tuesday. After the 30-minute visit, Hilton’s mother Kathy said: "It's tough in there. It's cold." She added: "It's just good to see her."
Hiltons’ visit came shortly after the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors ordered Sheriff Lee Baca to respond by next week to allegations of favoritism for reassigning Hilton.
After spending the hard days in prison, the real estate dynasty, whose trademarks are her blue colored contact lenses and the quotation "That's Hot," will again don her hard-partying lifestyle once she gets out of the jail. According to the New York Post, Hilton's parents are planning a huge "get out of jail" party for their daughter who is scheduled to be released on 26th June.
The life of the damsel has been in media spotlight ever since she entered the entertainment industry and has been subjected to criticism for her hard-partying lifestyle by almost everyone. Labeled as the “Party Girl”, the star of a hit television show “The Simple Life” is noted for her glitzy lifestyle and high media coverage relationships.
The young billionaire has a best-selling memoir- Confessions of an Heiress, a signature perfume line, a nightclub in Orlando, Florida -Club Paris and handbag collection.
Is this the most important thing that the World has to worry about? Move on.
