 It’s finally happened, Paris Hilton has gone into Lynwood’s Century Regional Detention Facility to begin serving her sentence for violating probation.
The 26-year-old heiress checked into the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood just after 11:30 p.m. Sunday. She’s expected to serve three-weeks for violating her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.
Hilton surrendered to sheriff’s deputies after making a surprise visit to the MTV Movie Awards in the afternoon.
Just hours after attending the MTV Movie Awards Paris fronted for her 23-day stay.
She avoided the waiting media throng and her attorney Richard Hutton released a statement on her behalf:
“This is an important point in my life and I need to take responsibility for my actions. In the future, I plan on taking more of an active role in the decisions I make.”
Like other inmates in that unit, Hilton will take her meals in her cell and will be allowed outside the 12-foot-by-8-foot space for at least an hour each day to shower, watch TV in the day room, participate in outdoor recreation or talk on the telephone. No cell phones or BlackBerrys are permitted in the facility, even for visitors.
The jail, a two-story concrete building next to train tracks and beneath a bustling freeway, has been an all-female facility since March 2006. It’s located in an industrial area about five miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles.
