She sounds like somebody with a really low IQ. I am wondering if that is the “medical condition.” She partied right before going to jail and looked healthy. If she was so seriously ill she could not be kept in jail, she should have been sent to a medical facility, not home.

“She sounds like somebody with a really low IQ. I am wondering if that is the “medical condition.”

Just thinking out loud here: Suppose she has a serious medical condition—physical or psychological—which does make her an inappropriate subject for standard custody? Suppose further that the Hilton family wants this information kept out of the media because it might end Paris’ “career” or worse, expose her and the family to liability in case it is an infectious physical ailment. If they had argued the matter to the judge, it would have been part of the public record. So perhaps, instead, they chose to wait until Paris surrendered herself to the custody and jurisdiction of the sheriff and then pressed their case. The evidence convinced the sheriff that release was appropriate (credibly or not) and she went home in the dead of night. Case closed and confidentiality maintained. Except Judge Sauer wasn’t involved in the decision and hailed both the sheriff and Paris back to court. The sheriff promised to produce documents to back up his decision but perhaps the Hiltons refused to allow the documents to be brought before the judge. So the sheriff takes the fall (perhaps to be cushioned later) and Paris ends up serving her time but at least the public doesn’t get to discover her secret(s). Again, just speculating but it seems to me a plausible explanation for the fiasco.
