Cops: Paris Under House Arrest

Posted Jun 7th 2007 10:08AM by TMZ Staff

Paris Hilton has been fitted for ankle bracelet and reassigned to house arrest, after authorities decided to release Hilton from jail due to medical reasons, this according to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Dept. spokesperson, Steve Whitmore.

Reporters hammered away about Paris' medical condition during a press conference in front of the jail, where she was released early this morning, but Whitmore said that due to confidentiality laws, he could not discuss even the slightest health-related details.

Paris will be under house confinement in her West Hollywood home for 40 days, where she has a 3000-4000 ft. radius of freedom. Her jail cell was 96 square feet. After the 40 days are up, Whitmore says she will have "fulfilled her debt to society."

Whitmore made it clear that Paris was not released early -- she was reassigned. She is technically still in custody.

21. Medical reasons? Don't they have a prison hospital or a prison doctor? I don't know why I'm surprised she was let go early. I sent an email to the LA Sherriff's Department about how disgusting this is. I suggest everyone else does this as well.

23. Unbelievable, look what money buys, its not a black or white issue, it is the haves and the have nots. If I have their money, I would pay someone to put her back in jail, what a pathetic excuse for a human-being. She is a waste of space.

30. There goes justice... 45 days in Paris Hilton's house would be a vacation for me... with her chef and everything else. What a bunch of BS. I am sure there are plenty of people in jail right now with "medical issues" that want to be out on house arrest. Good to know that STDs count when it comes to "medical issues" and getting out of jail or was it a hang nail? callouses on her feet? I am not sure all I know is that the justice department should be ashamed of themselves and they woner why no one takes them seriously, PLEASE Next time I driive drunk I am going to claim the Paris Hilton defense... I don't feel well... whah
