The domino effect in the Paris Hilton saga
The Sacramento Bee today says part of the blame for the early release of Paris Hilton from Los Angeles County Jail could be attributed to an overcrowded California prison system.
The Bee reports:
As of May 30, Los Angeles County was housing between 1,200 and 1,400 state prison inmates in its overcrowded facilities in which the 26-year-old Hilton is now residing. Tens of thousands of inmates, meanwhile, are getting early releases from the Los Angeles jails that are accommodating those state-sentenced inmates, whom the California prison system otherwise can't house.
