Do wealthy celebrities deserve to spend more time in jail than an average person? Should the judge take into account a persons wealth or status in sentencing? In my opinion he should not, you do the crime you do the time. You can't have the same cases with same previous history (in Hilton's case first offense misdemeanor violation) and sentence her to 45 days and another person to 10. Then you stick her in an overcrowded jail that's hard to control even without a big name celebrity and you're SHOCKED the sherriff's department wants her out. As for remorse, what do you want? A televised tearful apology for driving without her license?
Hopefully she just gets a limo driver for now on, sick of hearing about it.
