152. Hello??? So, she has been on these meds for awhile? I thought you should not PARTY drink while on these meds. HMMM...Ironic, don't you think?

153. Too bad but there are many other inmates in THE SAME SHAPE OR WORSE as the whole world knows now, thanks to Paris!

I can't wait to find out what the Board of Supervisors do about Sheriff Baca and his posse.

If Paris continues having problems, then maybe Sheriff Baca should take up his Sheriff friend's offer (the one in Arizona) to have her do her time in one of the tents where she could be out in the open!

154. She deserves every minute of every day she spends in jail. DUI, correct? You go in for alot longer than that where I live. I suppose that is where east coast and west coast differ.If she was detoxing from Xanax she would be given proper meds. You can suffer Grand Mal seizures from Benzo withdrawal.
If she was peviously on meds, this increases the danger she presented getting behind the wheel. Enough of this uneducated heiress.
By the way, #13, please learn the correct way to spell before you go on an incessant tirade.

155. #146 maybe you need to wake up and go to a REAL website not just take what the Enquire tells you as the whole truth...try the cdc website or madd website and read about drunk driving and common sentences.
she was sentenced to 45 to 90 days, suspended, for her first offense dui...
had she NOT violated her suspended sentence and probation she would NOT be in this mess to begin with. she thinks she is SPECIAL and ABOVE the law.
Upon being ordered to jail to serve her ORIGINAL sentence, which got reduced to 23 (or 21) days for good behavior PRIOR to even entering the jail...then was cut loose not b/c of overcrowding, but b/c her grandfather contributed to sheriff baca's re-election campaign fund and HILTON pressure, on ELECTRONIC monitoring.
IF it had been b/c of overcrowding/timeserved/good behavior...then the electronic monitoring would not have been ordered or necessary and the judge couldnot have ordered her BACK to jail. duh!?!?!
you might not like it, but it is the law, she broke the law not once, not twice but three or possibly even 4 times. it was past time to pay the piper. as they say, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me!
guess the judge finally had enough of her "But I am Paris!" b.s. routine.

156. I imagine that her detox from prescription AND party drugs has made her a little "unstable." No wonder she's so damn skinny!!! yuck

157. At first I thought, yes, she should serve all her time, driving drunk is terrible especially if she killed someone. But not, as they stated, she has already served more time than most people with similar cases... (I think like 60% or 80%)

I think she's done her time. Let her go and let's move on people!

158. The judge has sent Paris to her room, probably for the first time in her life. Like a 2 year old she tries to get out of her punishment by throwing a temper tantrum. If her tantrums have always worked before, they will increase in intensity. If she is let out of her punishment at this point she will only learn that throwing tantrums really do work and she can continue to do as she wants because she has learned there will be no consequences. If she is forced to finish her sentence (as difficult as it may be) she may learn definitively that rules are meant to be followed and DON'T DO THAT AGAIN! Maybe she will go forward and think before she acts because she wants to avoid this punishment again and she knows the judge means business. Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.

mommy: "go to your room"

child: "no, mommy, no!"

mommy:"stay here and think about what you did"

child: "mommy, please, waa waa! Let me out. I promise I'll be good. I promise I won't do it again! Waa waa waa! Mommmeee!!! I promise, mommy, I promise!" (sniff, sob, sniff)

mommy: "Ok, sweetie, if you promise not to do it again"

child: (to self) " Ha ha-Loser!!!!!

161. The term "panic attack" is so smitten with inaccuracies that it is a total joke. I have heard people use the term because they couldn't find a pair of shoes they wanted!

A true panic attack is a terrifying occurrence. I had one in 1969 that was so bad that I had to quit a great university job. It materialized into six months of classic depression. I know I had had panic attacks before (some people get them daily) starting at age 12, but this one was huge.

A typical panic attack will start instantly. How instantly? I will tell you what happened to me. I was at the dinner table with my husband (we were having pork chops, something I haven't had since) and watching TV (black and white), specifically the death total for the day during the Vietnam War. All of a sudden I jumped up and started to dash here and there around the room. I told my hubby to grab hold of me because I was headed to a kitchen drawer to find a knife to kill myself with. The feeling of terror and imminent death was that strong. Then I was shaking from head to toe and need to go to the bathroom to deal with instant diarrhea. But I was afraid to go by myself. I went to the hospital and they had no clue what was wrong with me (shameful) and for the next two days I went from doc to doc, mental health clinic, then went to my parent's home to stay for a week in another town. By then the depression set in (not always following panic attacks). For weeks all I could do is get myself out of bed to the bathroom and getting dressed was almost impossible. I was unable to make many decisions of everyday life or even for my own care. As time went by I pulled out of it, but not before losing my job at the college my hubby attended.

It wasn't until I myself entered college and the school physician diagnosed me with panic attack followed by severe depression that I found out what had happened to me.

My description of the fear involved with a panic attack. Imagine yourself in the middle of a six-lane freeway at night in a raging rain storm with all the headlights coming toward you and you know you will die.

I truly doubt Paris Hilton has experienced this. She bounced back too fast when she was sent home for that 36 hours. Take her "panic attacks" with a grain of salt. She suffers from extreme spoiled brat syndrome, and I will bet since she was a toddler she threw tantrums.

Panic attacks are dibilitating; you don't recover that fast, folks.

162. gingergreat - then I as a parent should sue as well - as my adult child suffered mental stress in jail as well, as well as his family. So we should sue LA County in all "fairness", right? I believe my child was a scapegoat, who will listen to me? I felt my adult child was dealt with unfairly and was transferred from here to there as well. What do you say, I should sue as well? They both broke the law - you with little brains and logic. They put themselves in the system and suffer the injustices real or imagined. What an idiot you are.

163. A Latino woman dies while in custody after being arrested by the LA County Sheriffs Dept meanwhile Paris Hilton still recieving special treatment while in Jail!

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- A woman who lay bleeding on the emergency room floor of a troubled inner-city hospital died after 911 dispatchers refused to contact paramedics or an ambulance to take her to another facility, newly released tapes of the emergency calls reveal.

Edith Isabel Rodriguez, 43, died of a perforated bowel on May 9 at Martin Luther King Jr.-Harbor Hospital. Her death was ruled accidental by the Los Angeles County coroner's office.

Relatives said Rodriguez was bleeding from the mouth and writhing in pain for 45 minutes while she was at a hospital waiting area. Experts have said she could have survived had she been treated early enough.

County and state authorities are now investigating Rodriguez's death. Relatives reported she died as police were wheeling her out of the hospital after the officers they had asked to help Rodriguez arrested her instead on a parole violation. Sheriff's Department spokesman Duane Allen said Wednesday that the investigation is ongoing.

In the recordings of two 911 calls that day, first obtained by the Los Angeles Times under a California Public Records Act request, callers pleaded for help for Rodriguez but were referred to hospital staff instead.

"I'm in the emergency room. My wife is dying and the nurses don't want to help her out," Rodriguez's boyfriend, Jose Prado, is heard saying in Spanish through an interpreter on the tapes.

"What's wrong with her?" a female dispatcher asked.

"She's vomiting blood," Prado said.

"OK, and why aren't they helping her?" the dispatcher asked.

"They're watching her there and they're not doing anything. They're just watching her," Prado said.

The dispatcher told Prado to contact a doctor and then said paramedics wouldn't pick her up because she was already in a hospital. She later told him to contact county police officers at a security desk.

A second 911 call was placed eight minutes later by a bystander who requested that an ambulance be sent to take Rodriguez to another hospital for care.

"She's definitely sick and there's a guy that's ignoring her," the woman told a male dispatcher.

During the call, the dispatcher argued with the woman over whether there really was an emergency.

"I cannot do anything for you for the quality of the hospital. ... It is not an emergency. It is not an emergency ma'am," he said.

"You're not here to see how they're treating her," the woman replied.

The dispatcher refused to call paramedics and told the woman that she should contact hospital supervisors "and let them know" if she is unhappy.

"May God strike you too for acting the way you just acted," the woman said finally.

"No, negative ma'am, you're the one," he said.

The incident was the latest high-profile lapse at King-Harbor, formerly known as King/Drew. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is investigating claims of recent patient care breakdowns, including Rodriguez's case.

Federal inspectors last week said emergency room patients were in "immediate jeopardy" of harm or death, and King-Harbor was given 23 days to shape up or risk losing federal funding.

Dr. Bruce Chernof, director of the county Department of Health Services, which oversees the facility, has called Rodriguez's death "inexcusable" and said it was "important to understand that this was fundamentally a failure of caring." He has said conditions are improving, though.

A call Wednesday seeking comment about the 911 tapes from the department's communications office, which handles information about the hospital, was not immediately returned.

Dr. Roger Peeks, the chief medical officer at the hospital, was placed on "ordered absence" Monday, the Times reported. Health officials declined to elaborate, saying it was a personnel matter. Dr. Robert Splawn, chief medical officer for the health department, was named interim chief medical officer, the newspaper said.

I guess since her Grandfather could'nt afford to pay Sheriff Baca off she did not deserve necessary medical treatment prior to going to jail! If she were a white, rich, celebrity she would have recieve excellent medical care and lived instead of being dragged off to jail without being seen by a doctor!

164. Paris Hilton does not mean zilch to me. What she does and doesn't do means zilch to me.
All I know for sure is if you lived in my state the sentence she got was light. There would have been a fine ( of coarse thats no biggie for her) and community service on top of the jail sentence. Also in this state we have a Sheriff and a Jailer........the Jailer runs the day to day operations of the jail BUT he does not release anyone unless he gets a judges order OR the person needs emergency medical attention and they are then sent to the hospital to be treated.
Panic Attacks sound so inconsequential to people who have not had the chronic type, but, they can ruin your life. Everyone thinks depression is the No 1 reason of suicide in mental patients. Guess again. Its Chronic Anxiety w/ Panic Attacks. For 1 1/2 years I did not step outside my house because of this condition and being under medicated. I hate it when people say they 'think' they had a panic attack. Let me fill you in here. Panic attacks are like orgasms............you KNOW when you had one. Imagine setting calmly at home reading a book and suddenly you can't breathe, you're hyperventilating, sweating, and scared out of your mind. Think of what the worst fear you have is and for no reason that fear has hit you. If you have kids imagine losing site of your 2 yr old in a large park for an hour. If you don't have kids imagine your parents are on a flight that just crashed. That is the fear that hits you out of the blue, for me, up to 25-30 times a day.
The only thing that concerns me is Paris' drinking which just makes it worse. It's time she stops play acting and being what other people want her to be. She just needs to be Paris.
I'm 50 with a son her age. I really do wish she could come live with my small family for awhile without anyone knowing who she was.....and that is quite possible. Don't know how she would adjust to a 1,000 sq foot house with one bathroom, but, with the spotlight off and lots of caring and compassion I think she would come out of it a better person.
