Celebrity Justice
Paris Won't Appeal

Paris HiltonParis Hilton has issued the following statement:

"Today I told my attorneys not to appeal the judge's decision. While I greatly appreciate the Sheriff's concern for my health and welfare, after meeting with doctors I intend to serve my time as ordered by the judge.

This is by far the hardest thing I have ever done. During the past several days, I have had a lot of time to reflect and have already learned a bitter, but important lesson from this experience.

As I have said before, I hope others will learn from my mistake. I have also had time to read the mail from my fans. I very much appreciate all of their good wishes and hope they will keep their letters coming.

I must also say that I was shocked to see all of the attention devoted to the amount of time I would spend in jail for what I had done by the media, public and city officials. I would hope going forward that the public and the media will focus on more important things, like the men and women serving our country in Iraq, Afghanistan and other places around the world."

31. That does NOT sound like a woman who "is on the brink". They knew the appeal would be rejected and most obviously have struck some other deal...including moving her to "spail" (spa + jail)

33. wow, she sounds pretty coherent for someone who was allegedly 'teetering on the brink'... not much of a brink then.... only a little teeter....

35. This is so degrading. The village idiot allowed herself to have a prison record. Frightful. My father is the grandson of a well-known east coast banking family and none of us would be allowed to act like Paris. Paris has said on tape that “poor people” are beneath her. Well, to most of us with class and breeding, having a prison record is beneath our social circles. Paris and the HIlton family are really icky. Money doesn’t buy class and breeding, Paris darling.

38. This spoiled child should be made to travel to Darfur, donate all of her money and possessions to those poor people, and learn a REAL lesson in suffering...

39. Why is she surprised at the amount of time devoted to her? She is use to the media attention, and let's face she loves it...when it works in her favor.

40.
I thought she was too sick ...I doubt very much that she wrote it.

42. If she is so worried about the troops, maybe she should serve her 45 days in Iraq...the Iraqi insurgents will be begging to get sent to abu gharib!!!!

44. Your ok in my book Paris. The crime should fit the time, not the persons fame. This time it dosn`t

45. Maybe a glimer of hope but the truth will be in how she conducts herself in public once out. Pity she couldn't spend sometime w/ Prince William or Harry to learn the art nobility & good pr. :-)
