Paris Hilton inadvertently becomes a prison reformer
Paris Hilton has inadvertently become a prison reformer. The prison authorities, rather than treat Paris Hilton the same as they treat other prisoners have decided to treat other prisoners as well as they treat Paris Hilton. I think that the same would happen over here if the likes of Jeffery Archer and Jonathan Aitken had not been given special privileges then the prison authorities would have had to raise the standard of living of the general prison population. The idea behind this is that the prison authorities don't like the public knowing how bad the conditions really are. They prefer them to think that prisoners are living in hotel conditions. I would advocate that more celebrities are subjected to prison as this would force through genuine prison reforms.
Nicky Hilton is forgetting that Paris Hilton was done for DUI in the first place and that is why her driving licence was suspended.
As for the District Attorney's wife getting a more lenient sentence, it was her first time whereas Paris Hilton is a repeat offender. I think the more pertinent question is, surely the DA was aware that his wife was driving whilst under a suspension?
The entire Paris Hilton episode has underlined – for any quaint soul on the planet who still doubts it – that in the infotainment age, celebrity is the coin of the realm. The most obviously catastrophic misfortunes could befall you since God smote Job with the boils. But if you haven’t a celebrity on your side, you haven’t a hope of being heard. It’s a lesson we know all too well at Peace X Peace. Oh, and factor in the varying degrees of celebrity while you’re at it. And then there’s the level of commitment by your cause’s celebrity. You need someone who is not just high on the radar, and wealthy and connected. They better have time and energy on their side. Because the truly stubborn issues of our time are not about to change any time soon. It’s not as if the beautiful people haven’t mattered before. It’s just that right now, if a celebrity takes a shine to your cause, it goes from zero to 60 at Mach 1. Pity the cause that is adopted by well-meaning but unconvincing or poorly informed celebrities. And pity the poor deserving cause even a bit unprepared for its good fortune. All you folks in the world’s trouble spots (Burma and the ‘Stans in the former Soviet Union, for example), all you who are still waiting for life to return to normal after Katrina, all you who served in Iraq but cannot seem to get your country to care about you, all you impresarios awaiting your celebrity tie-in ….. are you ready if Paris calls?

perhaps you can back up with facts how Jonathan Aitken and Jeffrey Archer received preferntial treatment as higher profile prisoners. Sadly this misguided commenting does prisoners and their families no favours and just perpetrates untruths that further undermine a struggling and flawed justice system.
