Paris Hilton could be sentenced to 90 days in jail · 2007-03-30 12:05
Prosecutors have asked a judge to revoke Paris Hilton’s probation for reckless driving, which could lead to jail time for the celebrity socialite.
A hearing has been set for April 17 for prosecutors to argue that Hilton, 26, violated the terms of her probation by knowingly driving with a suspended licence, stuff.co.nz web site informed.
Paris Hilton was sentenced to three years probation in January after pleading no contest – the equivalent of a guilty plea – to alcohol-related reckless driving.
Five weeks later, police pulled Hilton over again in the city of West Hollywood for driving without headlights and impounded her car, a $US190,000 Bentley, when they discovered her licence had been suspended, authorities said.
“We are confident that we have sufficient evidence to prove that her licence was suspended, and that she had knowledge of that suspension,” a spokesman for the city attorney said.
Hilton could be sentenced to up to 90 days in jail, he added.
