She violated her probation, twice I think. Down here in Florida, if you violate your probation you go to jail. Violate it a second time after you were given a second chance (which is rare) and you sit in jail without bail while you await sentencing.

I thought it was once on a 1st offense dui. If twice, 40 days or so doesn't seem unreasonable.

Ernesto, (BENZ-LGB), once again, would be the last word on this. It's California law, and he's a criminal prosecutor in Los Angeles County, and probably handles Probation violations, like this one, or has close friends in the office who do. Maybe he'll feel like weighing in, as the real expert here.

From what I recall, though, once they are proven, the Judge usually hands out jail sentences from 30 days to 6 months on them. When it's a revocation of probation the DA wants, and the Judge agrees, then it's off to State Prison on the felony revocation.

Many typical minimum California State Prison terms begin with 16 months/2 years/3 years, depending on prior convictions, mitigating/aggravating circumstances, and what's in the presentence report from the Adult Probation Department. The Judge selects the term, and usually states the "reason for sentence choice"
and is required to do it when the upper term is imposed...

The judges are well aware of time reductions for jail overcrowding, credits for good time/work time, and early release, in County Jail. Those things are entirely within the purview of the LASD. Probably the judge thought about them before he gave her 45 days.

Lordy, the British will have a field day with this one.

There should be an uproar in the US too. What a role model for millions of 8 to 20 year old girls. Thumb your nose at jail food, and you get a free pass with an apology and a ride home in the mayor's limousine.

NEVER, EVER thought I would agree with anything Al Sharpton said.

She's not home free, yet, though. Got to wear the ankle jewelry for the probation term, and comply with all terms, and I'd doubt after 2nd or 3rd probation modifications, she can keep out of State Prison if she violates again.

Even though LASD let her out, the spotlight is going to be on the Judge, next time. If she picks up ANOTHER beef, stick a fork in it.

Ernesto que piensas?

Favoritism to the rich and famous?

NO WAY!!! SAY IT AIN'T SO!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!! WHAT A SURPRISE!!! WHO WOULD HAVE THUNK IT!!!
Come on people did you really believe this girl would stay in jail for longer than a week?

I know one person who is probably really pissed.... Martha Stewart lol

She's probably calling her lawyer to say "Why the hell didn't you think of that...you're fired!"

Well, it doesn't take a "real expert" to know that nobody is talking about felony revocations or the State Pen here.

Roll Model- say it ain't so.....

I will add that if you ask most people if they would take their jail sentence like a man they will say yes I would until they are faced with the actual possibility, then they do everything in their power to avoid the place. My $hitbox, homes and other wasteful trinkets are a testament to this hypocrisy

I'd lock a chain to her ankle and make her do some work.

A skinny, weak, stuck up waste of skin.

This incident shows just how weak she is.

One wonders what her next legal stumble will be and how quickly she'll get off on that one.

too bad she didn't stay and make a "covert" girl on girl jail sex video: she would have made a fortune on the sales.

Justice wasn't served. Perhaps the Warden was serviced?

Damn, you are good!

DUI + driving on a suspended license + violation of a court order + violation of her terms of probation + failure to enroll on an alcohol or drug program + etc.

The original 45 days was a gift.

Cutting it short to 23 was a downright bonanza.

Letting her go on a promise to wear an ankle bracelet -- a sick joke.

A few years ago, Mr. Andrew Luster (he of Max Factor and GHB fame) was allowed by a judge to wear an ankle bracelet while his trial was pending.

That did not stop Andrew from:

1. Leaving his house for certain "approved visits."

2. Having visitors at his place, so technically he could still continue to bring young women to his beach shack and ply them Exxtasy and GHB.

3. And, when things got too boring sitting at his beach shack, he simply ditched the monitor and took off for Mexico.

Ankle bracelets are a joke.

Over 50 years ago Hitle declared "Paris is burning!"

Today, when people wear "Paris is burning" tee-shirts they are referring to an entirely different kind of "burn.

Sorry JD, but she is an ugly, buttless, boobless skank.

Not even with a ten foot pole!

More on this later.....

..

See post 17

I did google for an article but could only determine that she was dui/s. I think you would agree that driving while suspended for the first time on a first offense dui would be very discretionary to the judge and often would not result in any jail time at all. I didn't see the secondary and tertiary collaterals people are referring to, thus post 17.
