Early Checkout At The Greybar Hotel

Poor Kiefer Sutherland...if only he were a woman. And a Hollywood celebutant.

The Sheriff's Department notes the Los Angeles County women's detention center in Lynwood grants 30 to 50 early releases every day to it's female prisoners. Which is why Lindsay Lohan served 84 minutes for her second drunk driving offense.

After checking in at 10:30 a.m. she was searched, fingerprinted and placed in a holding cell in the inmate reception area. She did keep her street clothes, so banish those prison shower fantasies.

In May, Lohan was arrested after crashing her car into a tree in Beverly Hills. She was arrested again in July after the mother of Lohan's former personal assistant called 911 to report that her car was being chased by an SUV. The chase ended in Santa Monica, where police arrested Lohan for being behind the wheel. In both cases, Lohan was found in possession of small amounts of cocaine. In August, she reached a plea deal on misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges stemming from the arrests. The judge sentenced her to four days in jail — the mandatory minimum for a second drunken-driving offense — but gave her credit for 24 hours already served. She elected to complete 10 days of community service instead of 48 hours behind bars.

Her total deal: enter a treatment facility, spend a day in jail and perform community service. So is this special treatment?

Well, she spent two minutes longer in lockup than Nicole Richie did in August for a similar offense. And Paris Hilton spent a whopping 23 days in the clink. But really, they're skating through the penal system (you can pun that if you like) due to their celebrity. Comparisons have been made that she spent as much time behind bars as the running length of the conveniently named Let's Go To Prison, and her latest opus I Know Who Killed Me was both longer and more painful to endure than her jail stint...and they're spot on. Halle Berry runs people down and Rebecca Gayheart killed a person with virtually zero legal reprocussions, so if you're an attractive starlet, you can do no wrong (but plenty of harm) behind the wheel.
