On July 18,2008 Khloe Kardashian from reality show "Keeping up with the Kardashians" turned herself in to police custody because she violated her probation. March 2007 Khloe had a DUI and was placed on 36 months of probation and to enroll in a alcohol program. Khloe was not attending her alcohol program nor doing her community service. On July 18 Khloe was suppose to start her 30 day sentence in county jail. Due to over crowding, Khloe only served 30 minutes in county jail.
Many people see the consequences that celebricites have to deal with after having a DUI charge and think that a DUI is a minor charge. Many celebrities have been charged with DUI's and did not have major concequences. Khloe, daughter of superstar lawyer, Robert Khardashian, for example didnt even do half of her sentence. She only did 30 minutes in jail. If you were charged with a DUI today, would you only do half of your jail sentence? If you violated your parole, would your parole requirements be waived? Chances are, you would be doing your jail sentence. There is a greater chance that if you violalated parole you would be punished. Many times celebrities are not punished the same way that regular people are.
Why is is that celebrities come out scott free from a situation? Besides, Khloe is only popular because of her sister. Honestly, I would not consider her a true celebrity, but good point that was brought up.
ReplyDeleteYea I agree. Celebrities get away with everything. It's sickening. They never learn their lesson because they are never punished through the law like regular citizens would be. On the other hand though.. Someone like Lindsay Lohan is actually heading to jail for the mess that she is in. So maybe not EVERY celebrity is squeezing by the law.
