AceShowbiz - Paris Hilton has completed her first day serving her probation sentence. Checked in on the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood just after 11:30 p.m. Sunday June 3rd, just hours after she enjoyed her time at the MTV Movie Awards, the other inmates learned her being there at around 7 a.m.
Sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore revealed Paris was easy to work with, saying "Her demeanor was helpful. She was focused, she was cooperative." Detailing on her being in there, it is said that the socialite is placed in the "special needs" unit of the 13-year-old jail, separate from most of its 2,200 inmates. The unit, contains 12 two-person cells, reserved for police officers, public officials, celebrities and other high-profile inmates.
Paris' cell is 12-by-8-foot space and has two bunks, a table, a sink, a toilet and a small window. She's alone in there. On her daily routines, the reality TV star will have to take her meals in her cell and will be allowed outside for at least an hour each day to shower, watch TV in the day room, participate in outdoor recreation or talk on the telephone. Cell phones and BlackBerrys are not permitted for both the prisoner and even visitor.
Paris, accompanied by her mother Kathy Hilton and sister Nicky Hilton, were driven late Sunday by her attorney to the Men's Central Jail in downtown Los Angeles, where she officially surrendered to the L.A. County Sheriff. She was then driven to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, located in an industrial area about 12 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles.
Paris was arrested in Hollywood on September 7th last year and pleaded no contest to the reckless-driving charge in January. She was sentenced to 36 months' probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines. On date 15th of the same month she was pulled over by California Highway Patrol for driving on a suspended license and on Feb 27th she was charged with violating her probation.
