Paris Hilton Enters Plea Deal, Avoids Jail Time
Posted on Sat Sep 18th, 2010 12:13pm PDT By X17 Staff
Paris Hilton has plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of drug possession and obstructing an officer, and she will avoid jail time as a part of the deal. The heiress was arrested last month in Las Vegas after police found cocaine in her purse, and she will serve a year of probation, pay a $2,000 fine, complete a drug abuse program and participate in 200 hours of community service.
Hilton's attorney David Chesnoff told the Associated Press, "Ms. Hilton understands the seriousness of the situation and appreciates the chance she is being given. She has to stay out of trouble." Clark County District Attorney David Roger told the Las Vegas Review-Journal, "If she is arrested for anything besides a minor traffic violation she will spend a year in jail. There will be no discussion."
If only Lindsay Lohan had this kind of luck!
