Nicole Richie does 82 minutes hard time
'Treated like any other inmate' during prison hell ordeal
Requirements Checklist for Choosing a Cloud Backup and Recovery Service Provider
US reality TV "star" Nicole Richie is apparently none the worse for the wear after serving a hellish 82 minutes of a four-day drink-drive sentence, the BBC reports.
Richie, 25, was hauled off to the Lynwood celebrity hang-out jail - recently favoured with a quick visit from Paris Hilton - and duly fingerprinted. She didn't, however, get as far as the cells, since she was then released "based on her sentence and federal guidelines".
In an apparent attempt to prevent the US's prisons bursting at the seams with ne'er-do-well celebutards and Blackberry-chucking rapstresses, "inmates sentenced to less that 30 days for non-violent crimes are usually released within 12 hours", the Beeb explains.
Richie was nabbed last December driving the wrong way down a motorway. She subsequently coughed to a "driving under the influence of drink and drugs" rap, and was sentenced to four days' jail. The judge also handed down three years' probation and ordered her to attend a drug treatment programme.
Having escorted his client from chokey, Richie's lawyer Chapman Holley assured the awaiting press: "She was really treated like any other inmate." Reports that a weeping Richie added that her slammer ordeal "felt like a 100 minutes" are unconfirmed. ®

@ everyone
It's all sooooooo true.
The irony, of course, is that these spoilt fekkers are parading themselves around as "what you wanna be", and then if you do as they do... it's Josephine Average Public who gets thrown in the slammer for the duration and Spoilt Media Brat that spends less time incarcerated than it takes for the fekkin hangover to wear off. Maybe what's needed is a punishment system where your punishment is a multiple of your income, not a reciprocal.
Now then, why did I reply?
Oh yes... I blame the parents.
could but didn't
Yes you have to wait till someone actually does something
before you punish them for it it's required If I was jailed
for every time I thought about killing someone with my
bare hands I would never get out many of you probably
would have shared my fate no one will ever know how
close I came to being guilty of something as I never did it
just try and get me. All of this is because of that mothers
against whatever might be a threat crap same as terrorists
same as bird flu and all the other shit people try to scare you
with it's just a bunch of hysterical bullshit. More people
die in hospitals as a result of elective surgery than die from
any of the things I mentioned above and I don't notice anyone
placing doctors in the clink.
Poor little rich girl ...
The world is Soooo unfair to her, demanding a horrid 82 minutes of hellish jail. OMG!
Let's see, maybe next time it should be 93 minutes and 17 seconds. THAT would teach her!
What a sorry indictment of the best American justice that money can buy. And her attorney probably thought s/he was doing a good thing for her. I think that attorney just tilled fertile ground for somebody to die next time. Hopefully it's not an innocent.
