The
Simple
Life
star
Paris
Hilton
is
to
be
tagged
with
an
alarm
to
protect
her
from
fellow
prison
inmates.
The
hotel
heiress
will
be
provided
with
a
panic
device
giving
her
a
24-hour
link
to
prison
guards
in
case
she
encounters
trouble
when
she
begins
her
prison
sentence
next
month,
according
to
Britain's
The
Sun
newspaper.
Hilton
must
report
to
Century
Regional
Detention
Centre
in
Los
Angeles
by
June
5
after
she
was
found
guilty
of
driving
with
a
suspended
license.
As
well
as
being
tagged
with
an
alarm
The
Simple
Life
star
will
be
kept
in
the
prison's
'special
needs'
unit,
which
is
reserved
for
police
officers,
public
officials,
celebrities
and
other
high-profile
inmates.
The
26-year-old
has
made
it
known
she
is
"really
scared" by
the
prospect
of
going
to
jail.
Her
sentence
has
already
been
cut
from
45
to
23
days
for
"good
behaviour",
despite
the
fact
that
she
has
yet
to
begin
serving
it.
Hilton's
mother
Kathy
called
her
daughter's
imprisonment
"horrendous" but
added:
"Hopefully
young
people
who
look
up
to
Paris
will
learn
from
this."
The
socialite's
representatives
last
week
announced
that
she
was
dropping
plans
to
appeal
against
her
sentence.
