Paris Hilton Was Given a Cell Phone in Jail!

Oh, gee.... I almost went a whole week there without any news about Paris Hilton. Thanks for ruining it for me with this nonsense. Who gives a rat's posterior about Paris Hilton? She's a nobody! Stop covering her and watch how fast she straightens out.

Maybe she took it with her?

Gee, Dr. Bob. I'm sorry the Paris Hilton article ruined your week. It seems that if Paris Hilton news was in fact so repugnant to you, you wouldn't even have opened and read the article, much less taken the time out of your obviously busy and important schedule to post a comment about it.

What a world or rather country. You have a president that dumps a prison sentence for a man that harmed national security. Did anybody blog about that? NO..but a 23 day stay by Ms. Hilton still gets headlines. And you wonder why the rest of the world thinks the USA is a joke..

I think you missed the point of the article. It is not about Paris Hilton, it is about how unfair our justice system can be. Though I am not surprised that a celebrity received preferential treatment, I think it is up to the citizens of this country to show our displeasure to our elected officials. Articles like this put them in the hot seat.

i hope it was a camera phone i enjoyed her last video and would not mind a sequel

I had thought in jail or prison that all calls were monitored for security. Was Ms. Hilton's calls recorded or monitored or is there a record at least of who she called. I hope she had it on vibrate for incoming as not to disturb the other "guests". If any record was kept (which I doubt) or list of calls can be discovered, they should be published; public right to know. This simply gives jail and prison, and Ms. Hilton a bad name. My only hope is she wasn't ordering out for pizza, but them maybe she doesn't eat pizza. Simply shame on everyone.

Perhaps the question should be why can't the prisoners have cell phones? The cell phone would have a clear record if they were harrassing anyone and otherwise would be less stress for guards and likely leave prisoners in a better mood causing less problems for the guards. So Why Not let them have cell phones? If they harrass someone then they loose their cell phone? Might keep them behaving.

The reason for the payhones is that all of the calls are being recorded. It is a message that will come up when the collect call is placed. The telephone company makes big bucks from the calls because you can only make collect calls from there. The calls usually last only 15 minutes if you are lucky so then they have to call you back. Again it is just a case of another celebrity getting better treatment than the rest of the other criminals that are in jail.

Guess who "greased" who's palm??? Shame on the staff at the jail !!!

Such a shame to see that money can affect even the justice system. I thought it was just the lawyers so corrupted but the whole system there is corrupted by money.

So I guess she got more than one phone call?

Who really cares? She drank on probation... should she be in jail in the first place? It's like J walking. Who hasn't broken a law at one time or another. Too much hype over a simple thing. People seem more angry about this or at least just as angry at the O.J. verdict.

Having a cell phone in jail is a serious thing! If you are in a prison you will lose good time, recieve a "shot", and be transfered to a higher security facility. If Paris had a cell phone she should've had to serve the 40-something day sentence the judge gave her instead of 23 days. If she really did get a cell phone I'll be ticked!!!
