Po lil Paris, she gets a taste (1.00 / 1) (#31)

of the real world and whines mommy, mommy, mommy.  Y should she be treated any differently than anyone else who's broken the law?  What about the millions of inmates who are serving long term sentences on petty drug crimes.  Maybe her mummy promised the Sheriff head of security in exchange for overruling the judge's order.

I'm sure her incarceration will serve her career well as the porn pics did for sent her to the forefront of celebrity status.  what a pitiful condition this country has been reduced to.  Enjoy the SHU.

a defendant being sentenced who gets whalloped, and yes, some of both sexes do cry "Mom," you'd know it's a hearbreaking scene, not one to make fun of.

If it is Paris Hilton, and ... (1.00 / 1) (#50)

we are talking about a light sentence of something a little over 2 weeks, then it is certainly something to make fun off. We are not talking about someone who is going to go away for years here.

In particular, the whinning about mommy is funny. Martha Steward voluntarily went to jail for SIX MONTHS before exhausting all her appeals to put the whole thing behind her. Now that is dignity.

And I doubt Paris mind people ridiculing her as long as she got to be on front page news. And she has lots of practice anyway.

I was incarcerated w/Martha (5.00 / 1) (#53)

at Alderson and you're right she served her time w/dignity and with one special privilege...housing.  She was allowed to remain in the orientation cottage versus living in a range unit.  When Martha was an inmate she was an inmate treating everyone with respect and in turn received respect.  Paris didn't just get 45 days for sake of getting 45 days, she violated her probation showing no acceptance of responsibility for her actions.

I don't. But maybe you really were incarcerated w/Martha and the formally incarcerated are mini-police officers, or prosecutors, or judges nowadays. Or maybe the better question would be why were you in the orientation cottage? That could explain it.
