Paris Hilton's former publicist, Elliot Mintz, has apologized to the brainless heiress for the part he played in getting her sent to jail. Said Mintz in a statement to People magazine:
The day after the hearing, I sent Paris an email expressing my sadness over the ruling of the judge and the irrational sentence he imposed. In that email [to Paris] I also offered my sincerest apology for any misunderstanding she received from me regarding the terms of her probation. To the extent that I have miscommunicated information I received from her attorneys... I am deeply and profoundly sorry.
I told her that I assume personal responsibility for my part in this matter. I believe when Paris stated in court that she believed it was ok for her to drive under certain circumstances she was being absolutely truthful. Due to this misunderstanding, I am no longer representing Paris.
Elliot Mintz - not only are you a sniveling weasel, you are also a pathetic groveling worm. Honestly man - what happened to your self-respect? Did you never have any, or did you decide one day that you couldn't afford it? You almost make me sicker than Paris herself.
And here's something else someone will have to explain to me one of these days - this shit about the "misunderstanding" over whether Paris was allowed to drive. How in the name of all that's holy could there be a misunderstanding about that? The bitch got popped for DUI, was given probation and had her license suspended. If a normal person has this happen to them, they understand that it means they're not allowed to drive. They don't need a lawyer to explain that to them. But apparently, Paris is so fucking stupid that she has yet to learn words like "suspended" and "probation." So that means someone has to use really small words to explain these concepts to her. And even then, she doesn't get it.
Elliot Mintz shouldn't be sorry - because the task set before him was an impossible one. If anything, he should be thankful to finally be away from those people.
