Man I really can’t believe the way some of these stars get off! Paris was discovered with cocaine in her purse last month while being pulled over, and only has to pay $2,000 in fines, complete 200 hours of community service and complete what is being described as an “intensive” substance abuse program. This is in exchange for her “guilty” plea, which had she not submitted, she would have received a one year jail term.
TMZ reported that the judge gave Hilton a one-year suspended sentence in the case, which means that if she is arrested for anything besides a minor traffic violation in Vegas in the next year, she will have to serve the full one-year term. Hilton will also be on probation for one year.
In a quote from Paris’s lawyer, he says, “Ms. Hilton understands the seriousness of the situation and appreciates the chance she is being given. She has to stay out of trouble.”
Hopefully she won’t take a page out of fellow starlet Lindsay Lohan’s book. We all know how that’s turned out for her….
