Do you think she's finally getting what she deserves? Or, do you believe her when she said she's finally learned her lesson? Let everyone know how you feel about this heiress and her troubles right here!

I don't think she should have been out drinking and driving in the first place, there was no excuse for it, after all, she's filthy rich, she could have easily paid for a driver. So, I can't honestly say I feel sorry for her. Jail probably seems worse for her than some people simply because she's been pampered her whole life, and being in that small cell, which is probably smaller than the smallest broom closet in her mansion(which, she's probably never seen)is probably making her feel pretty cramped and claustrophobic. I'll be surprised if she learned her lesson. I'd say if she got to to stay out for the remainder of her sentence, she definitely wouldn't have learned her lesson, at least now there's a slim chance she will.

It's fine hun and thanks for posting!
I agree with your last sentence. She MAY get what she needs to learn her lesson by actually serving her time. We can only hope!

Simply put, its like the two year old that keeps trying the same thing regardless of punishment. Emotionally she is two, and will never ever learn, especially with how money can open so many doors.
She already knows she fooled the sheriff for a while. She knows she just needs to flaunt the money and play people off each other to get what she wants most times.
I don't think she really thinks she has ever done anything wrong. And all this will be is a wake-up that she can't win every legal battle... Not the message she should get which is that some behaviors are actually wrong.

I think you're exactly right. I like how you compared her to a two year old. I was just thinking about something similar earlier today. My 18 month old kept getting into his diaper bag and dragging everything out of it. I redirected him numerous times and finally it seemed he got the idea. Yeah, he got the idea to move the diaper bag into another room where he thought I wouldn't hear him tearing stuff out of it! LOL They learn to do things where they don't get caught, not the actual lesson. I think Ms. Hilton is the same way. Sad, but true.
Thanks so much for responding!

I have head ache when My mind has to give attention to people who are so rich and they suffer disgrace and the whole world is paying attention to their stupid behavior. People are wasting time listening to them. See how the rich spent their fortune in useless activity. Can we give more attention to important issues for a day?

I agree. I had just hoped to get people talking about our flawed justice system and give their opinions on the whole mess.
So what do you think would be a better topic?

Exactly! Honestly, there is no excuse for ANYONE to be out drinking and driving. If you can afford the booze, you can afford a cab home. If not, then bring a friend. There are always other ways home.
I'm sure someone in Ms. Hilton's position had more than enough ways to get home without driving herself.
You do the crime, you do the time. Period. I'm sure it's heartbreaking for her, but you play, you pay!

My question is does her parents or the people surrounding her not know the law?!?! Or do they think just because their filty rich and used to paying people off and getting what they want that they could get away with breaking the law while people that actually follow the rules and maybe made a big mistake still have to pay the price like us down to earth folks!!
