"Letting her go and then sending her back is unprecedented and cruel." Yes, letting her go in defiance of the court ruling was indeed unprecedented and contemptuous of the court. What is "cruel" is that Hilton's lawyers surely knew this, yet they proceeded, knowing full well it was possible she'd be sent back.

Furthermore, you're jumping all over the map here. Hilton's unauthorized release, officially, had nothing to do with her sentence being "extraordinary". It was supposed to be because of "medical reasons", right? Yet you're jumping from overcrowded conditions, to excessive sentence to whatever excuse you can come up with. If anyone is abusing his power it is Baca. And when you continue to whine about her excessive sentence, you illustrate that point because it is not the role of LE to make judgments on the appropriateness of a sentence, but to enforce the sentence.

The judge has to abide by the sentencing guideline and he did so. He could have gone as high as 90 days and still been within the law. So please spare us the "abuse of power" whine. Incidentally, I didn't see the judge give a single press conference -- though I saw plenty of Baca. What channel are you watching? Are you sure you don't have him confused with the court spokesman or the prosecutor?

Man....this little girl really gets to some of you gals doesn’t she?

I don’t whine dear.

You are the one suing Iraq horrors as your backdrop for comparison, not me.

I would like some candor as to why you and several other women on this thread despise Hilton so much and get such glee out of this.

For the record, I don’t find her attractive particularly, I think her folks raised her poorly but I have nothing against her being rich.

I’m glad to be on the opposite side of this issure from Al Sharpton btw...

The bottom line is her sentence is extraordinary and you know it but don’t care for whatever reason....you seem to revel in it actually.
