My reaction was similar to yours at first, but then I stopped and wondered what the medical condition is. Without knowing it is impossible to get the full context of the decision. Still... |

When you consider that there were almost a thousand cases of Methicillin-Resistant Staph in the L.A. County Jail in 2002, it’s a laugh and a half to talk about "context" in this case.
The street-level take-away will be exactly what Bruce says in his final line. |

Paris couldn’t sleep and had become a sniveling mess. No, no, no. You people just don’t get it. This was to prevent her having a burdensome effect on the other prisoners. The noise of her persistent crying and whining would have made for "cruel and unusual" circumstances for everyone else. [/speculative_sarcasm] |

There we go. I told you that context was needed and this clearly demonstrates that there was an essential health reason for switching to house arrest. >rolls eyes<
As Keith pointed out at least the time for house arrest has been upped from the (amended) prison-time sentence. I guess they figure that twice as long confined to your luxury mansion with an electronic tag is equivalent to 20 days in prison. |

In the interest of equality, everyone else serving 45 days or fewer should have been given the option of spending it under home confinement...in Paris Hilton’s house. |

Joe Miller is right. Paris is a genius. She’s solved our Prison crowding problems. Ankle braclets for all. |

What has Paris apparently disturbed is the fact that she hasn’t been able to sleep as her cell is "freezing cold’, and has not been eating properly because she has lost her appetite. So McQ, were you summer or winter Ranger? |

Correct me if I’m wrong, but most decent sized prisons have at least an infirmary with nursing staff if not one or more actual MDs. Is there any law precluding a prisoner transfer from county jail to a state prison in order to provide them with (secure) access to medical facilities? |

WHiney bitch didn’t eat the icky food, and wasn’t comfy...
I did 48 hours in county here in central IL once, and after the first night I couldn’t STAND my back hurt so much. What the hell is HER complaint?
Thankfully when she screws this up it’s 90 day, no ifs, ands or buts... |

So Paris is let out of jail because the food isn’t prepared by a chef and beds aren’t equiped with goose down. Meanwhile Keith Henson, a 60+ year old engineer on heart medication, is sitting in a Riverside County, CA. jail for a misdemeanor charge of interfering with a religion (scientology of course). The interference consisted of Mr. Henson picketing outside scientology’s Golden Era Studio in Hemet, CA. I guess the general message California wants to send is it’s ok to drive intoxicated, but you better not say anything bad about our cults. |

Bad food? No sleep? Missing pillows?
Gee, I must be in jail. My kids are always waking me up and taking my pillows. Oh, and unless I’m going to work, I rarely even step outside the house. I’ve got a little boy with severe allergies who pukes up all his food every time I take him outside to play on a sunny day. In addition, with two in diapers, I’m constantly up to my elbows in one or more of three bodily excretions that start with P. I’m on my third change of clothes today.
I think next time, the judge should sentence Paris Hilton to come take care of my kids. |

I’m almost of a mood to hang out near her place, and see what I can take pictures of... Think anyone else has had the same Idea?
I mean, it’s not the pics would be worth any money to TMZ.com or the Inquirer... |

Well, yes they do. However, if you want to see a doctor you generally have to put in a written request and they’ll get around to letting you see someone, usually a nurse, when they feel like it. Medical care in prison is not exactly world class.
They should have let her continue to cry and whine. I’m sure she wouldn’t have been the first, and her colleagues would have taken care of that soon enough. Prisoners tend to take care of problems in their own, usually very effective, way. |

abwtf, in Tazwell county, IL, they serve REALLY small portions, proccess you in after meals (even though you get there early), and the ONE sheet (not blanket, sheet) you get in the middle of a winter storm in Feb barely cuts the chill...
If women can take the pain of childbirth, she can tough this one out... |

House arrest? So that means she is confined to her home. Is she forbidden to have guests? I wonder how many parties she can throw in 40 days.
"Winter."
Ah, you missed the unbearably sultry southern summer and got to enjoy those temperate and cool southern winters in the scenic Georgia hills. There is nothing quite like waking up after a good nights sleep to a crisp, cool sunrise, greeted by the smell of woodsmoke, coffee and bacon and the sound of cheerful comrades, appetites whetted by life in the great outdoors, preparing a hearty breakfast to prepare them for the invigorating hike ahead. (humor alert, just in case). |
