Michelle Rodriguez Released From Jail

Michelle Rodriguez was released from jail early after serving just 17 days of her 180 day sentence.  The judge who sentenced her for a DUI-related probation violation had ordered that she fully serve her 180-day sentence. 

Law enforcement sources say the Sheriff felt he had to treat Rodriguez the way he treats every other female inmate.  Because of severe overcrowding, the standard is to release everyone after they serve 10% of their time.  Even though the judge drew the line in the sand and demanded the full nine yards, the Sheriff felt equality was more important.

Do we have another Paris Hilton case on our hands?  Sheriff vs Judge?
