Paris Hilton's Simple Life...
So I came across this article about Paris Hilton's arrest following a cocaine possession and the treatment she recieved in jail. Needless to say...I am not surprised. In this article they claim that after she was arrested, her stay in jail was anywhere from 5-21 hours shorter than that of someone else who is booked for the same offense. To me this is simply not fair. If anything, I think she should have stayed 5-21 hours LONGER. The girl hasn't had a taste of the "real world" since the day she was born, and her reality show "The Simple Life" does not count... I don't think it is fair for someone to be treated differently just by their name or their celebrity "status". I'd like to see a show where a celebrity volunteers to have a makeunder and then goes into a jail acting as someone else, I bet the results would be much different than if they had went to jail as themselves.

Keep in mind that having Paris Hilton in jail for less than a day longer would still have cost the jail and the taxpayers thousands of dollars more, because Paris Hilton's fame makes her comparatively more at risk in a jail's general population. While it may be unfair, the jail might have thought that keeping her there for a few more hours wasn't worth the amount of money it would cost them.
