I Committed The Same Crime As Paris - And Got No Special Treatment!

I don't know how the rest of the world feels about the situation, but I have to say that I am infuriated by the fact that Paris Hilton was let out of jail after serving on 3 days. The media keeps saying that her sentence was very harsh in the first place, but was it truly? I personally got arrested for driving while suspended in 1999, and I served exactly 45 days in jail for my crime, and that was 8 years ago!

The media claims that Paris Hilton's shrink came to see her at the jail and said Paris was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, so the sheriff decided to let her out on house arrest. This makes a mockery of the criminal justice system. I do not know of a single person who doesn't experience some sort of mental breakdown, anxiety, or other mental state after being incarcerated. Part of being in jail is having the time to sit there and think about what you have done, and learning from it.

Paris Hilton was released from jail because she is a celebrity, and she has millions. It is not fair to the rest of the citizens of the United States, that she is released after 3 days, when the rest of us have to sit there in jail and pay for our crimes. Many people, including myself, lost our homes and jobs while we were incarcerated due to not having a way to pay our bills while we were in jail. She didn't even have that to worry about. There is absolutely no reason why she should have been released 20 days early.

I am sure that Paris Hilton was about to have a mental breakdown, due to the fact that she did not have any servants, a plush bed, absolutely no luxuries, and she actually had to deal with her problem on her own. Even though she supposedly had no special treatment, the rest of the citizens of the United States would have been put in population, and not in a private cell of our own.
