Paris Hilton has been jailed for 45 days after being found guilty of violating her probation for a drink-driving conviction. A Los Angeles judge ruled she must start her sentence on 5 June and has no prospect of an early release. Paris told the judge she was very sorry and that she would "pay complete attention to everything" from now on. She said she did not know her license had been suspended when caught driving without headlights in February. According to papers filed in Los Angeles' Superior Court, Hilton was stopped by California Highway Patrol officers on 15 January and informed she was driving on a suspended license. The 26-year-old then reportedly signed a document acknowledging she was not allowed to drive. On 27 February, she was stopped by Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department for speeding on Sunset Boulevard with her car's headlights off and charged with violating her probation. She was also accused of failing to enrol in an alcohol education programme by a court-ordered deadline.
