Paris Hilton Takes Plea Deal, No Jail Time
Socialite Paris Hilton will 'fess up to the drug possession charges against her, stemming from an Aug. 28 arrest in Las Vegas, but the heiress won't see any jail time for it.
Hilton appeared before Las Vegas Justice Joe Bonaventure on Monday, where she will plead guilty to two misdemeanors and be sentenced to a year of probation, with mandatory community service and a fine, reports the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
"We fashioned a resolution which would give us complete control over her future. If she does not toe the line and stay out of trouble, she will do one year in the Clark County Detention Center," said Nevada's Clark County District Attorney David Roger.
Hilton must also successfully complete a substance abuse program, pay a $2,000 fine and perform 200 hours of community service.
Paris is familiar with jail time, having served three weeks in 2007 for violating probation in a drunk driving case.
