Paris Hilton sentenced to 45 days in jail

A shocked Paris Hilton was ordered on Friday to spend 45 days in jail after a Los Angeles judge ruled the hotel heiress and socialite violated her probation for alcohol-related reckless driving.

Superior Court judge Michael Sauer said he believed the 26-year-old reality TV star knowingly disobeyed the law by driving while her license was suspended and ordered her to report to jail on June 5.

"I think she has wanted to disregard everything that was said and continued to drive no matter what," Sauer before passing sentence.

He added, "The probation is revoked. Forty-five days in jail."

Sauer made the decision after a two-hour hearing during which Hilton insisted she was unaware that her driving privileges had been suspended when she was pulled over for driving without headlights on February 27.

Hilton said her publicist Elliott Mintz had told her she was permitted to drive for work-related reasons.

"I did not want to break the law," she told the judge "I did what I was told. I would never drive just because I want to. I follow the law and I respect the law. From now on I want to pay complete attention to everything."

"I just want to say I'm sorry," she said before being sentenced.
