    I just can't muster any sympathy for her.

    There's a lot of people in the world that do deserve sympathy, but Paris Hilton is not one of them. There's plenty of people in jail that don't like the food, or are depressed because they can't hang out with their friends, but they have to do their time, or if they don't, it's not because they pouted and cried.

    The fact is she's a grown woman that drove drunk and could have easily killed someone, and this is a woman that has access to millions of dollars, she could easily just hire someone to drive her and her friends around from club to club, but she chose to drink and drive. She, and her family, were already planning a big house party for her after her 3 day stay, which they were calling 5 days because that's what she got credit for. She needs a good dose of reality, maybe next time she'll hire a driver.
