Paris Hilton asking Arnold Schwarzenegger for help

Helpless Paris Hilton is turning to California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger for help.

Hilton backers are circulating a petition on the Internet urging Schwarzenegger to pardon her. The petition notes that other celebrities have had much worse driving mishaps and avoided jail time.

“Paris Hilton did not hurt, injure or kill anyone or anything, and yet she must do jail time,” the petition reads.

The petition also praises the governor: “Let me first begin by saying that I grew up as a child enjoying all of your wonderful films. You really are the truly great action hero for our time. You are doing a great job in the great state of California.”

The governor’s office said it would consider the request but suggested that Hilton should not count on a last-minute reprieve.

“Typically, he only acts in very extraordinary circumstances,” spokesman Aaron McLear said, adding that pardons are usually considered only when a defendant has exhausted all other legal remedies. “Should we receive such a request, we will treat it no differently than any other of this nature.”(source : anythinghollywood.com)
