Paris Pleads Guilty, Avoids Jail Time

File photo of U.S. socialite Paris Hilton wearing a dirndl in Munich, September 25, 2006. Every year Bavarian women slip into their dirndl to celebrate the Oktoberfest, but in the beer festival's 200th year the traditional Bavarian dress is becoming something of a national and international fashion item. In Germany the popularity of the dirndl has spread from Bavaria, where it was traditionally worn, to Berlin and Cologne, whilst African and Indian-themed dirndls lend an international touch to the clothing traditionally made and worn in Bavaria.

Paris Hilton pleaded guilty this morning on two misdemeanor charges. One count of possesion of a controlled substance, and one count of lying to a police officer in relation to her recent arrest in Las Vegas for cocaine possession. In exchange for her plea, she was given a one year suspendended sentence, received a $2000 fine, and has to perform 200 hours of community service.
