Paris in Peril

Posted Jun 9th 2007 2:05PM by TMZ Staff

Paris HiltonParis Hilton is "teetering on the brink."

Law enforcement sources have told TMZ that Hilton has been crying a lot, praying and extremely withdrawn.

Hilton is in the medical ward at Twin Towers, an L.A. County jail facility. She is in a room by herself with a glass door. For her protection, a sergeant guards the door at all times.

We're told Hilton hasn't eaten or slept since she arrived yesterday.

Sources have described her condition today as "fragile" and "despondent." One source called her "a train wreck" while another said she is "sullen and withdrawn."

We've learned her shrink, Dr. Charles Sophy, spent more than two hours with her this morning. Hilton's family can't visit today. In the medical ward, families can only visit on Sundays and Tuesdays.

We're told Hilton is receiving "appropriate medical attention." We're told she's being given psychotropic medication.

2. How is she receiving proper medical attention when she was yanked out of house arrest to send her back to the environment that is causing her the psychological problems? bizzare and absurd.

3. Babbs, perhaps you need some psychotropic medication.

4. Damn... so she's like the rest of us when thrown in the slammer-- depressed, BFD. Except that she gets pampered like a poodle. You wanna see someone who should be depressed, but instead rejoices life:

8. How many inmates get their very own special visit from private head docs?

11. God, enough already. Is this whole this not making anyone sick???? Not only was she treated WORSE because of who she is, now she's being punished in a pissing contest between the judge and the sheriff. The only one with any brains is the sheriff who let her out after 3 days. People get out of jail early ALL THE TIME. What kind of real justice is being served?? The woman isn't being punished, she's being tortured at this point. I've never seen such a blatant witch hunt. Hello!!! Convicted sex offenders are sent home with no jail, just home monitoring. The world as seriously lost it over this.

12. send Ms. Parisite to AZ where she would spend at least 90 days in a tent in the desert in 100+ weatherwith Sheriff Joe, and gladly stay only 40 days in an air conditioned jail. Mental problems explains a lot but is no excuse. Paris and friends need to grow up and deal with the consequences she brought on herself. Oh, and Paris.....get a real job.

14. WHO CARES ???????????


Why is this even being reported ? I am sure hundreds of thousands of prisoners have lived in prison (and nothing like Paris's) over the years feeling equally despondent and teetering on the brink.

15. Yes, if Paris Hilton has "severe mental health problems", keep her where she belongs, in the psychiatric yard, not at home in her luxury mansion. A few years ago, Paris said in a magazine: "I ate fast food for 30 days and nearly died". Is this what her medical condition is all about? She don't like the food served in jail? The jail officials should force feeding her like the psycho that she really is.
