I read the charges, in the court document, of Las Vegas vs. Paris Hilton to find out what the true story was about her arrest, last weekend. Curious about what the media manipulation was doing with information it was feeding the public. One of the claims is that the correct arrest procedure was not done and that it was her ticket out of the felony drug charges.
Interesting that the news media had not read the arresting officers' information in the court documents, for if they had, they would know that Las Vegas Police followed correct procedure, even though they had a VIP on their hands. Had they not been so accommodating, in agreeing to allow her to go to the bathroom to put some lip gloss on, agreed to get her off the street, at her request, because the big bad crowds were frightening her, she could have gotten off home-free, without her cocaine stash and Zippy marijuana roller papers, falling out of her purse, into the hands of the police officer, when he told her to open her bag and remove the lip gloss. She screwed up and she was probably so stoned, and probably had a few drinks, like her drunk boyfriend, she spilled the coke out into his hands. Ha! Karma is a bitch.
After seeing pictures of her Chanel purse, on her arm in France, and her Twitter comments about how excited she was about her new purse, purchased in July, in France, I realized that she was just another celebrity, lying through her teeth, to save her butt from a one to four year jail term.
One thing about Las Vegas, the city fathers like to keep it clean and safe for all of us, who visit once in a while, so we keep coming back.
I saw the size of the little purse, and there was no way she could have missed the coke pack, when she took it that night, since there is no way you could miss anything in that purse. And really, she did not miss it, since she said she thought it was gum.
Thought it was gum? A powdery, white substance? Wonder if she thought if she got into the bathroom, without a police matron escort, she could throw it away? Ha! I loved reading the arresting police officer's report as it clearly showed she was treated respectfully, and beyond the norm that would be allowed for anyone else, except a VIP. 2 standards in arrest procedure are in effect, it seems, in many places around the US. Except, maybe in Mariposa County, Arizona. There the American ideology of, equal treatment under the law, applies to all citizens, and non-citizens alike.
The drug-using VIP's, I consider somewhat worthless individuals, now. At one time there was a certain cachet about their privileged lives. Now, not so much, and more than likely that comes from the 2 standards of punishment assigned for crimes to the VIP herd. Seeing the impoverished enter prison for a couple years, over the same type of crime that Paris Hilton committed, makes my blood boil now. Hopefully, they will send her to prison for a year or two, without being placed in a special, Barbie-type accommodation.
After having spent a few years of my life working in the legal field, I have never gotten over what a Prosecutor has to give up for a Defendant, when the money is stacked against him, even though the Prosecutor and the Defense Attorney both know the accused is lying through her teeth. Paris is guilty.
I declare it, without hesitation, and the idea of innocent until proven guilty has escaped me for the moment, as I listen to the whine of a woman who is doing drugs, been caught or held a few times, in the past few months, and has absolutely no desire to stop her drug use, and feels she is above the law. If one is above the law, then innocent until proven guilt cannot be used as a defense in arguing that people do not have the right to think otherwise.
Of course, Paris will end up in a $30,000 a-month rehab house with Lindsey Lohan, where they can discuss their next reality TV series, and make a few more million dollars on the photo ops.
I really hope that the legal system, and good cops, who do a fine job keeping drunks, like her boyfriend, and drug users, like Paris Hilton, off the streets and out of nice hotels, like the Wynn-Las Vegas, do a great job in getting them off the streets for a while.
Kudos to the police officers and handling the situation in a humane and upright way. Book 'em, Dano!
