Assuming the facts as LittleNemo stated them are correct, then Hilton’s claim that she didn’t know her license was suspended is pure crock. She was in court in front of the judge/magistrate when her license was suspended. The judge says, “Your license is suspended for 3 years” and the court clerk gave her the paper with words to that effect on it. That was her notice right there.
This is what always gets me–she has a gazillion dollars. Why not hire someone to drive her? Then she can talk on her cell phone, kiss her small carry-on dog (if she has one), make out in the back seat, whatever she wants. Why drive on a suspended license when you can hire a new chauffeur every day, two on Sundays?
It reminds me of the scene from Clueless…
“‘Second notice on an outstanding ticket.’ I don’t remember getting a first notice.”
“The ticket is the first notice!”
:dubious:
Nitpick.
In CA your first offense will get you 6 months to 1 year suspension of license. The 3 years is her probation.
an nfl player’s license was suspended for drunk driving. his wife was heard to say words to the effect of:
“it was horrible.” “we had to take a limo everywhere!” “even to the grocery store.”
ah, yes, the poor dear. had to be in a comfy limo instead of mingling with the masses on public transport.
And I guess she still doesn’t get it. This is her alledgedly driving yesterday (Tuesday May 8th.)
Does anyone still think she doesn’t deserve jail time?
Believe it or not, there is now an on-line petition asking she be freed.
Yes, this story just keeps on getting better. The online petition says Hilton “provides hope for young people all over the US and the world. She provides beauty and excitement to (most of) our otherwise mundane lives.”
Hilton has allegedly responded to the petition, giving her endorsement and asking people to “please help and sihn it”.
New idea: throw the woman in a Supermax facility, no cameras or anything. Everybody will forget about her in a few months. Take the guy who started the petition and give him the 45 days in jail, and castrate him. Not chemically. I’m thinking more like “rusty Bowie knife.”
Doesn’t she have some sort of rare illegal monkey or marmoset or something now?

Does anyone else get a teensy bit of satisfaction that Paris is alone when she’s driving around? Like maybe nobody wants to hang with her?
So you think she should let the marmoset drive?
Maybe all her friends are in rehab.
You mean this? The deal to buy it fell through.
No, I mean some sort of actual live monkey creature. Am I making this up? I mean, I don’t really follow Paris Hilton, but surely my brain didn’t just create the “weird illegal marmoset lemur thing”, did it?
I know a guy who had the same sort of experience. DUI, multiple instances of driving while his license was suspended. After the third stop for driving without a license he did 90 days in the county jail.
He always used to say “you don’t need a license to drive, you just need one if you get stopped”. Seems as if Paris was operating on that same philosophy.
I can’t believe that she doesn’t just get a driver. How hard would that be? Doesn’t have to be a limo. Just someone else to drive her around in her car.
Now I’m picturing her as Veruca Salt watching a Quiznos commercial and stamping her foot, screaming “Daddy, I want a Spongmonkey! Now!”
She tried. No one else wants to sit on her seat.
