Paris update

Even though Paris Hilton was sent back to the slammer last week, she is still managing to get the special treatment. Since returning to jail, she has been housed in the medical ward (until Wednesday night, when she was moved back to the jail where she began her sentence), which costs $1100 per day to house an inmate, compared to the low hundreds of dollars it costs to house an inmate daily in the jail. In addition, Hilton's parents came under fire Tuesday after skipping the line to visit their daughter during lunchtime, causing other visitors to be sent away and asked to return later in the day. A recent KTLA report revealed the results of a study that looked at 1,500 similar cases to Hilton's, and the sentences they received. If Hilton remains incarcerated for her full 45-day sentence, she will have served more time behind bars than 80% of the individuals with her same offense.
