Paris Hilton's 2007 jail sentence

In 2007, this reality-TV fixture served 23 days in an L.A. county jail for violating probation — with news helicopters tracking every mile of the drive there.

The full story

Paris Hilton was sentenced to 45 days for violating probation in a reckless-driving case, briefly released to house arrest, then famously ordered back — ultimately serving about 23 days in 2007. She later reinvented herself as a DJ, entrepreneur, and advocate.

The clues we handed out

— Released early to house arrest, she was ordered straight back to jail two days later — cameras caught her crying in the back of a sheriff's car.

— The probation came from an alcohol-related reckless driving case.

— She trademarked her catchphrase: 'That's hot.'

— She and Nicole Richie milked cows on The Simple Life.

— Initials: P.H.
