LOS ANGELES -- Paris Hilton was released from a Los Angeles County jail early Thursday because of an unspecified medical problem and will fulfill the remainder of her sentence in home confinement, a sheriff's spokesman said.

The 26-year-old hotel heiress was sent home shortly after 2 a.m. fitted with an electronic monitoring bracelet. She had spent five days at the Century Regional Detention Facility in suburban Los Angeles for violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.

"I can't specifically talk about the medical situation other than to say that, yes, it played a part in this," said sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore.

Hilton had been sentenced to 45 days behind bars, but had been expected to serve 23 days because of state rules allowing shorter sentences for good behavior.

Whitmore said that under the new agreement, Hilton would be confined to her home for 40 days.

"Because she has agreed to this through her attorney, her sentence is now back up to the 45 days. She has served already five days so that's 40 days," he explained.

Hilton checked into the Century Regional Detention Facility just after 11:30 p.m. Sunday. She had surrendered to authorities with little fanfare after a surprise appearance at the MTV Movie Awards, where she worked the red carpet in a strapless designer gown.

"I am trying to be strong right now," she told reporters at the time. "I'm ready to face my sentence. Even though this is a really hard time, I have my family, my friends and my fans to support me, and that's really helpful."

Hilton was housed in the "special needs" unit of the 13-year-old jail, separate from most of its 2,200 inmates. The unit contains 12 two-person cells reserved for police officers, public officials, celebrities and other high-profile inmates. She didn't have a cellmate.

After she checked in Sunday, Whitmore said Hilton's demeanor was helpful.

"She was focused; she was cooperative," he said.


[font=Comic Sans Ms] I'm guessing she paid the jail lots of money to get out and her illness is probably from not eating. I also heard she got special treatment and was housed in a different part of the jail. gosh some celebrities!

lol did we ever think it'd last?

NOOOOOOOOOOO! MAKE HER GO BACK IN!

Yep, I read that too. I knew she'd somehow weasel out of jail. Must be miserable she's going to be under house arrest in her swank mansion. -_____-

tht pisses me off.
just because shes a celebrity doesnt mean she should get such special treatmeant.
ugh!

I bet she'll spend all her time writing a book about her 3 days in jail.

hahaha,agreed.

nice , i bet it's true

Ha, I just saw this on tv and I was like "I bet there's a thread about this on smosh!"

That makes me so angry. I mean house arrest for her? Not exactly the worst punishment in the world is it?

Either that or have Tinkerbell write a book about how much she missed her "mommy."

HaHa...

Haha. Unfoutunatly, those will both probebly be realeased.

THAT IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING. Just because she is a celebrity they are letting her out of jail? I really hope she gets into like real bad trouble and is forced to stay in jail for like 20 years. Then there would be no Paris for 20 years!

Unfoutunatly, we would defently get a book if that happened.

'' because of an unspecified medical problem''

Roughly translates to 'because of herpes'.

Hah.

i hate paris hilton

BULLSHIT!!

20 bucks says she breaks the home confinement and is found at a party 5 days from now.

Yea... I agree, just give it time.

I'm in.

either that or shes having parties of the year up in her house.

I hope a bear will get into her house and since she cant leave he will eat her.

does it look like i give a shit

I'm still waiting for the replies from the Paris Hilton fans...

LMAO, like she said at the MTV awards 'I'm getting through this, I couldn't do it without my family and fans supporting me'.

i hate her! il bet she is going to figger out a way to get that ankle braclet of and she is gonna start goin to party and such

How can she have fans...what does she even do?
"Hey Paris, I'm a big fan of you banging that one guy...yeah that's pretty much it, I love you Paris!"

Ha yeah.
I was being ironic

Irony: it's sarcasm written down.

This irritates me. I mean, if the Paris Hilton was the name of an average citizen with average children in an average house, they wouldn't be released. They'd have to sit in that jail cell and rot until their sentence was over.

But of course, Paris Hilton gets out of jail. And she learned absolutely nothing. She'll probably mess up again.

Anyway, lol. We were talking about this in school, and someone yelled, "Her parents should have spanked her more often! GAWSH!" right in front of the teacher. Hilarious.

looooooool yeah i hope she gets eaten XD

Simple Life.

But the thing is she really does have a lot of fans. Strangely there are plenty of people out there who love her. Did you hear about the online petition that was going around to keep her out of jail? That warrants a good laugh.

Edit: Mt. Mega made a good point, I kinda forgot about Simple Life

She was housed in a different part of the jail, but it makes sense why. If you were a tough mean person in jail and all of a sudden you say ditsy Paris Hilton, don't you think you would beat the crap out of her?

But letting her out IS BOGUS! Seriously, that really pisses me off that they let her go home!

I'M A FAN OMG PARIS THAT'S HOT!

Dude, how can you listen to Stars Are Blind and not want to scratch your eyes out not be an instant fan?!

I bet -N- signed that petition...

and dont forget she put out a cd. not a very good one but one nonetheless.

edit: or was that the name of the CD?
im not big on all this paris information

I don't really mind her actually... I think she's funny in the Simple Life coz they're so stupid...

Aah yeah and also : her CD. and perfume...

her music is pretty BAD though.. can;t imagine her having fans through that...



It's just funny there was a petition... shoudln't make a difference

This isn't about her being famous, this is about her being rich. All inmates would be treated the same if they could afford the same lawyers and make the same arguments on their behalf.

As it turns out, most of these criminals had state-lawyers who couldn't give a rats ass about busting them out of jail.

You mean, paying someone to write it for her.

i think it was called...paris. my friend burnt me a copy of hers so i have it on my computer.

she also put out a book, shes a model, she does alot of useless things.

MOTHER FUCKERS!

Oh no, it's true...

Stars Are Blind...more like Stars Are Deaf. I agree with the herpes comment, she got out because they're flaring up.

I find it ironic how everyone felt the need to voice their own personal opinion on why she's famous. Obviously, people like talking about her.

There you have it. I forgot about how she brought beauty and excitement to my life.

OKAY!

so the reason is. she refused to eat or sleep or do anything like that and she got her shrink to come in and diagnose her with some lame disorder.

im trying to get the source right now.

lol

Huh, I thought she might be pregnant or something...

Hello? She's not a fan because of modeling, tv, books, cds.

Think Paris Hilton sex tape.

typical.
