Where is the Justice in this?

Jailed socialite Paris Hilton has been released from jail after serving three days of her 23-day sentence after falling ill. The 26-year-old heiress checked into the Century Regional Detention Facility in suburban LA on Sunday to serve 23 days for violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.

The evening before she was jailed, Hilton made a surprise appearance at the MTV Movie Awards, where she worked the red carpet in a strapless designer gown.

    If you or me were ill in jail, they would laugh at you and you'd be lucky to see a doctor 3 days after you reported you were ill.

    We have handled a case in which a girl was in jail with meningitis and nothing was done for her, she didn't even get a Tylenol from the nurse for her headache. We had another girl who hung herself in her cell after having a mental breakdown on her ride to jail. I am sure there are many other stories out there.

    If I still lived in LA county I would make sure not to vote for that judge next time his term comes up.

    This is one more BLATANT proof that our criminal justice system here in the USA is a total joke. The rich, famous, powerful, and white get free rides and wrist laps, and the rest of the population gets the book thrown at them for the same offenses.

    And Paris, herself is a joke! Getting out of jail for whining and going on a hunger strike? They should have strapped her down and fed her intravenously until she decided to grow up.

    WATCH for American "justice's" NEXT magic trick. It's almost sure to be in the form of a pardon from our worthless Warmonger-in-Thief of a "president" to that worthless felon, Scooter Libby.

    It's time for Americans to DEMAND their Congresspersons and Senators to institute REAL reforms -- or get booted from office the next time they stand for re-election.

    Lady Justice is blind and can only see rich people.

    I bet you if is was me who went to jail they'll probably trow away the key.
