Crying Hilton sent back to prison.

Crying Hilton sent back to prison. : "Hilton was led out of the court in handcuffs and crying 'Mom, Mom. It's not right' as she was taken away to serve the remainder of her 45-day sentence for violating her probation in a reckless driving conviction."
I am sure her medical problems will be dealt with in the same way as the medical problems of other people who find themselves in gaol. That's the whole point. If you do not want to be there, then you do not do the things which bring you there. It isn't right. She has led a life of such advantage and yet cannot use that to benefit herself in the right way. Having had all she has had, she needs to be able to direct that into positive outcomes for herself rather than the thought it means she can do anything and get away with it. It's hard for us to have laws and justice if there is a group of privileged who can escape them. It means laws and justice are for the non privileged and that makes a mockery of one of the biggest foundations of our current society. Doing her time means she will show she is not above the law and can show others, well, I've paid for it, now I'll get on with my life. In that sense she is still advantaged because she has a life and status to go back to. Other people have to crawl up from the bottom again when they do time.
