i try to avoid celebrity mess-ups and paris hilton is the biggest. there is too much real news in the world to be concerned about a young-spoiled-attention-whoring heiress.

however, when things involve a perception of special treatment based on celebrity, well, i get interested.

this article sums up the story quite nicely, and it is good that everyone, including the defense attorneys are up in arms. however it seems obvious that sheriff lee baca (isn’t baca or bakka japanese slang for stupid? seems appropriate.) is either being paid off or is trying to raise his own “Q” rating.

ah, southern california, where it’s all about self-promotion.
