In the end, they got Al Capone for the comparatively petty crime of tax evasion. Whilst unlikely, we can at least dream that drink driving will be the catalyst leading to Paris Hilton's downfall.
The professional celebrity was charged yesterday with driving under the influence. She was stopped on September 7 whilst commandeering her Mercedes-Benz SLR.She was scheduled to be arraigned on September 28 to face the charge of driving with a blood-alcohol level of 0.08, the minimum which warrants an arrest in the state of California.
Hilton claimed she had only one margarita at a charity event prior to her arrest. For all we know, the single margarita may have been the size of a flower vase. Whilst denying driving dangerously during her late-night hamburger run, Hilton did admit she was possibly speeding.
At the most, Hilton faces six months in jail and a $1000 fine, which is believed to have been her allowance whilst in kindergarten.
