As for overcrowding, "our jail is bursting at the seams" and some women inmates have been released after serving only 10% of their sentence, he added.

Last year, Lost actress Michelle Rodriguez was sentenced to 60 days in jail for violating probation after her drunken driving arrest in Hawaii.

She was released within hours because of overcrowding.

Paris’s time will be determined when she is booked into the county system, Whitmore said, insisting that the heiress will not receive any favours because she is a celebrity.

"She’s going to be treated like any other low-level security risk."

A call to Paris’s publicist seeking comment was not immediately returned.

The 26-year-old was sentenced to jail last week for violating the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.

A judge ordered her to report to the women’s jail in Lynwood by June 5.

Paris’s ’corpse’ on display - May 10 2007
Paris Hilton’s naked "corpse" will be used to warn students about the dangers of underage drinking, gallery chiefs have said.

A graphic sculpture of a tiara-wearing, autopsied socialite with removable innards will go on display at the Capla Kesting Fine Art gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, from Friday - complete with a model of Paris’s pet Chihuahua, Tinkerbell.

The interactive public service announcement featuring the sculpture has been produced by artist Daniel Edwards, whose earlier works included a heavily pregnant Britney Spears giving birth, to warn US teenagers against underage drinking.

Paris was chosen because of her involvement in an alcohol-related reckless driving case last year, and last week the 26-year-old was ordered to report to a county jail by June 5 to serve a 45-day sentence for violating the terms of her probation.

The Paris Hilton Autopsy shows a nude Paris laid out with twisted body and opened abdominal cavity on a coroner’s table, while still clutching her mobile phone.

The tableau also shows Paris’s legs splayed in stirrups for postmortem pelvic examination and a "double abortion" of foetal twins discovered in her uterus.

Gallery director David Kesting said: "Paris’s internals, which include her small intestines, uterus and fetuses, are removable to assist teens with an empathetic view of drunk driving tragedy from the coroner’s perspective."

He said the Campaign to Rescue Women of Youth includes support material from Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and counters "the disturbingly glamorised trend of Hollywood’s ’girls gone wild’."

Paris gets mixed reaction from party crowd - May 9 2007
Paris Hilton’s friends may be campaigning to keep her out of jail, but it seems not everyone wants the hotel heiress to go free.

Plenty of parties were happening in Las Vegas over the weekend - a popular stomping ground for Paris - but few people seemed to think Paris deserves a get out of jail free card.

At the Amp’d Mobile party at the Playboy Suite of the Palms Hotel, J-Lo’s ex husband Cris Judd said it was time Paris faced up to things: "You know what? You make your bed you sleep in it. You always have to keep on top of what is going on in your life. I don’t know if it’s deserving but, you know, you have to learn your lesson."

Professional skateboarder Ryan Allen Sheckler put all the drama down to her life in LA. "It’s bound to happen, everyone gets crazy here and there."
