Paris Hilton Released From Jail after 3 Days
Paris Hilton was released from jail after just three days, and went home with an electronic monitoring device. Authorities have been tight-lipped about the reasons for the change in the terms of Hilton's sentence, but confirmed that it related to a medical condition. Hilton, who was originally sentenced to 45 days in jail, was expected to serve only 23 days under the state's good time credit provisions. She will serve the remainder of her sentence on house arrest, without comparable day-for-day credit.
Lest you think that Paris Hilton is getting an unfair break because of her celebrity, remember that Michelle Rodriguez served only hours of her sentence, and she didn't even have a medical condition to complain of!
