Paris Hilton In Jail!

Following her appearance at MTV Movie Awards, Hollywood socialite and reality TV star Paris Hilton was, in a surprising move, booked into Century Regional Detention Facility in an industrial area about five miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles, two days early.

The Sheriff had apparently devised the plan of surrendering miles away from Lynwood, where Paris will be doing time, because the crush of paparazzi that had assembled at the jail created a potential safety hazard.

TMZ reports plans for Paris have changed. Although a woman had been designated her cell mate, for the time being Hilton will be in solitary 23 out of 24 hours every day. The one remaining hour she will be allowed to shower, use a phone and watch TV in a small pod adjacent to her cell.

Though a judge sentenced her to 45 days behind bars, Hilton is expected to serve only 23 days because of a state law that requires shorter sentences for good behavior. Hilton will be housed in the facility's "special needs" unit.
