Paris Hilton's "simple life" has just gotten complicated. On Friday (May 4), a judge sentenced the hotel heiress to 45 days in Los Angeles County jail for violating the terms of her probation.
Hilton must report to the Century Regional Detention Facility in suburban Lynwood on June 5 or face a 90-day sentence. She will not be allowed work release, leaves of absence or an electronic-monitoring device instead of jail, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer ruled after a hearing.
The 36-month probation stint stems from Hilton's arrest in September for alcohol-related reckless driving. Paris’ attorney Howard Weitzman said he would appeal the ruling. "I think she's singled out because of who she is," he said. Weitzman said the sentence was "uncalled for, inappropriate and bordered on the ludicrous."
On January 15, California Highway Patrol pulled over Hilton, who was driving on a suspended license. At that time, she signed a court document acknowledging that she was not permitted to drive. Hilton was again pulled over on February 27 when authorities saw her car speeding with its headlights turned off, and she was charged with violating her probation.
