"I told the truth," said Hilton, according to Reuters (and as was first reported by TMZ.) "I feel that I was treated unfairly, and that the sentence is both cruel and unwarranted. I don't deserve this."
Hilton, however, did foretell of her punishment in an interview she gave beforehand to Harper's Bazaar, for its June issue. "I think I get in more trouble just because of who I am," she says, as reported in Monday's New York Daily News.
"The cops do it all the time," she is quoted as saying. "They'll just pull me over to hit on me. It's really annoying. They're like, 'What's your phone number? Want to go to dinner?' "
Despite her current legal woes, Hilton says that police rarely write her up. "They just pull me over, and the paparazzi, of course, take a picture," she complains. "All the time. I have so many cops' business cards."
