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."

62. Her bitter lesson is what? That she isn't loved by the masses as she was deluded to believe?
The focus in this case was the miscarriage of justice in releasing you, not that you are any more special than Nicole or Lohan will be when their time comes. Watch the coverage when Nicole's case comes up, having been allowed to drive since her citation. Someone really blew it there.

63. Paris has nothing but class. I know she can get through this. I'm praying for you beautiful!

Btw, does anyone have the address for where letters can be sent to her?

Thank you.

64. Finally, she listened to her Publicist and not her parents.

The long road to redemption begins. Actions speak louder than words. I am sure she will emulate our illlustrious President's daughters and contribute to the "War on Terror".

Oops. Another fantasy.

(grin)

65. hmmm never understood where those blood for oil comments come from.

Where is this oil we are supposed to be stealing? Sure hasn't helped gas prices.

66. The only "reflecting" she's been doing, is looking at anything shiny in her cell for the sight of her own face to comfort her..

67. Does anyone out there believe this actually came from her? Trust me, it came from someone else trying to make her look better for the public's eye. Probably her parents. You see, they think the majority of people ( not in their circles ) are easy to feed a bunch of crap. DON'T BUY INTO IT. It wasen't a statement from her. Her parents can't even talk to her until tomorrow. Sun and Tues. only while in the med ward.

68. Does she think we are retarded?!?! How was she able to write coherently while being doped up? Didn't they say she was despondent??? Whatever pills she's taking I want some!

69. I somehow don't think that Paris wrote that message. Too bad she would not learn from Martha Stewart, she went into prison without any fuss.

71. To #78: Just stick it up ur dumb a$s, cuz theres more of a chance that she'll read it if it's there than if you send it 2 her.

72. Hahahaha, you know she didnt write that! She's still overwhelmed she lost her battle and now sitting in a jail cell to server her sentence. . . .after the way she acted yesteday I bet she's still way to upset to even think anything like this up. . .this is the work of her lawyer who knows they wont win any appeal. . . . . have fun eting your jail food Paris! :)

73. I hope Paris learn something from all this because not a dollar came from the Hilton wealth it all came from the poor law biding tax payers. Which the city should take all expenses from the Hilton fortune and not the tax payers.

74. Oh Puhleeeze....

Like she was cognizant enough while doped up with anti-depressants that she could even form a coherent sentence...

With the dribble coming out the side of her mouth and eyes rolling backwards I’m sure she authored this beautiful revelation of humble reverence.

Her lawyer undoubtedly wrote the entire release with Paris’s approval going something like this…

LIKE… WHAT-EVER! JUST GET ME OUT OF HERE!
I NEVER HEARD OF AFGHANISTAN... IS THAT IN SOUTH AMERICA??
MOMMY!!!
