Paris Hilton describes jail time as ‘traumatic’
Poor little Paris. Apparently she thought she was above the law. I did too. Didn’t realize that drinking and driving, and then driving on a suspended license was that big a deal. Maybe not in her world, but in most of ours it will kick your ass to get busted for those 2 things in the same year. Fans were great to her though as always. Kind words were given and probably some fancy Peach cobbler recipes and other well wishes. Wonder if anyone sent her a file in a cake…ha!
“I’ve been through a lot,” said Hilton, her blond hair cascading across her forehead. “And it was a pretty traumatic experience, something that I really have grown from.”
Paris said she got hundreds of letter from “fans” that at times reduced her to tears.
Asked why she was going public about her experience, she told King, “I just want to let people know what I went through.” It was her first broadcast interview since being released.
“I was walking in there assuming I was just going to get community service,” Hilton said. “That’s what my lawyer said at the time. So when he sentenced me to that much time in jail it was shocking because that doesn’t happen, ever.
“It wasn’t for DUI, it was for suspended license,” she said of her case.
Asked whether she thought she got a “raw deal,” she said yes. Still, she vowed never to drink and drive again.
“I’ll never make that mistake again,” she said.
Raw deal? Get over yourself, Paris.
