(CBS)  Although her stint in jail has been traumatic for heiress Paris Hilton, she at least has something to look forward to. Her father, Rick Hilton is reportedly planning a huge bash for her impending release.

The New York Post reports that Rick Hilton was looking for a venue for a party for his oldest daughter. He asked several Las Vegas clubs for $50,000 in cash — in addition to accommodations and flights — for the honor of hosting the party. A source told the Post that Pure and Hard Rock said no, but the owner of the Palms has not yet given an answer.

Paris Hilton was ordered back to jail last Friday after the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department released her on Thursday and put her under house arrest for an unspecified medical reason.

On Monday, the Los Angeles County sheriff Lee Baca met with Rev. Al Sharpton, who said that the Hilton situation highlights how the rich receive preferential treatment in the justice system. Star magazine news and style editor at large Jill Dobson said many of the magazine's readers feel Hilton should serve out her full sentence. In a poll the magazine conducted, she said 90 percent of people said she should not be released early.

"People just really feel like Paris didn't deserve preferential treatment," she told Early Show co-anchor Hannah Storm. "They feel like she got it. And they think she deserves to spend some time behind bars."

Hilton is rumored to have been going through several panic attacks and severe depression while being incarcerated hence the reason for her release from jail. The judge ordered her to serve the remainder of her sentence from the medical ward of a Los Angeles County Jail where she is being treated for her psychological problems while serving her time.

"We're reporting in Star magazine she's been taking sleeping pills for years and she didn't have those so she wasn't able to sleep," Dobson said. "Also, she wasn't able to eat or drink because she was concerned someone would take a picture of her and sell that picture. A lot of different physical and emotional issues."

Hilton was sentenced to 45 days for violating her probation for a DUI, but could serve only 23 days in jail because of state rules allowing shorter sentences for good behavior.

"We think she'll be there for quite sometime," Dobson said. "Possibly the duration of her time in jail. Because she was having so many problems at the Lynwood facility, she was kept by herself for safety. But that caused emotional issues because she was so isolated. Now in this medical ward there are other inmates around her and she's doing much better."

Hilton is rumored to be reading several self-help books including "The Secret." Sources say she is also reading the Bible and in a telephone interview with Barbara Walters, Hilton said she plans to change her ways when released from jail.

"I'm not the same person I was," she told Walters. "I used to act dumb. It was an act. I am 26 years old, and that act is no longer cute. It is not who I am, nor do I want to be that person for the young girls who looked up to me. I know now that I can make a difference, that I have the power to do that. I have been thinking that I want to do different things when I am out of here. I have become much more spiritual. God has given me this new chance."

Timeline: Paris' Predicament
"Hilton told Walters she was severely depressed her first three days in jail and felt as if she was in a cage. In addition she told Walters that she wants to take up causes such as breast cancer and multiple sclerosis —diseases that have afflicted members of her own family.

"I think that she's genuine for now. Whether she'll still feel the same way when she gets out and her friends are throwing her 'you're out of jail' party it remains to be seen," Dobson said. "She says 'God has released me.' I guess saying on earth she may be here behind bars, in the spiritual sense she's a freer person. …Whether she'll remain committed to religion and to these different causes that she says she wants to get involved in remains to be seen."

Put her on a chain gang. She won't be alone and she'll be too tired to worry about her sleeping pills.

And you wonder why she's got no moral compass or even a clue?

As I started reading my first thought was that any money spent in giving this spoiled brat a party would be better spent in a charitable way such as a donation to MADD or something. but only does this monkey's a$$ what to throw a party for his idiot offspring he wants someone to pick up the tab. Is this family down to thier last few hundred million?

Poor Paris has had such a hard time for the past few weeks. Now daddy is going to reward her for being a bad girl and making an *** of herself acting the spoiled brat she is...wow she is going to have a huge party in her honor to show the world it's okay to break the law and make an *** of yourself when it's all over mommy and daddy will invite all of your friends to come over and you can get drunk or high on anything you want and it's okay. I guess being bad isn't so bad after all when you know you will be rewarded in the end. SHAMEFUL PARENTS, SHAMEFUL DAUGHTER there's no wonder Paris is a mess she learned it from her parents.

Who really cares... seriously...

When she gets out she will be doing the exact same thing... going out and getting drunk with her friends.... hey fine... do what you want... but don't insult the reust of us by saying you found god.. or that you are going to change...

people like her don't change... it is not like she is going to become some rich kid who does it all on her own... she likes the attention and the light too much...

just go out and party it up with your little friends Lindsey and Brit... cause that is all they are good for... let serious people deal with the serious issues....

FYI... the father is no better... just living off what his father built... and look at the mother... she is probably drunk all the time...

I find it ironic that we treat celebrities as royalty and Gods and track every movement they make as if they walked on water but if one of them lands in jail, everyone wants to see blood. What's wrong with this picture?

How is she ever going to learn from this experience if her dad is going to reward her bad behavior by throwing her a party?!? Gee her parents should be b*tch slapped. My parents sheer disappointment in me would have been enough to straighten me out but that is just me and my family values. She is such a poor example to the youth of America and her parents just don't see it. Whatever happened to TOUGH LOVE?!?

Let's see how sincere her comments were about discovering herself and growing up. Talk is cheap...actions speak louder than words. I suspect that the spoiled little rich brat will remain just that; and her father is assisting in the perpetuation of the image.

OMG-Her father asks for $50k and someone to pick up to tab for the "honor of hosting"! It's easy to see why Paris is a train-wreck. So much for helping your daughter get her life together. He would rather gain publicity for the Hilton name by putting her back into the environment that caused her to get into trouble in the first place. For the first time, I feel sorry for Paris. Daddy wants you to party so he gain gain publicity for the Hilton name off of Paris' exploits. HE IS THE EXPLOITER. And the abuser of his own daughter.

The parent's of Paris Hilton are apparently a large part of the problem. When parents have a child sentenced to jail-time, one would think that giving your child moral support is appropriate, but to have an extravagant party for your child is inappropriate. I assume that alcohol will be part of the celebration too. Isn't that what got Paris in this situation in the first place?

I especially like the second paragraph of the article. Her father is so rich that he wants the hotels to put up $50k, flights and accommodations just for the honor of hosting the party....Hey how come he's going to throw a big get-out-of-jail party and he didn't have a big party for the premiere of her *** tape?

Her father is giving her a party for getting out of jail on a dui, driving with a suspended license. What will he do the next time she drives drunk and someone either gets killed or seriously injured, rent out the Madison Square Garden.

And I'm sorry but all inmates get "enlightened" and "find God" once they are thrown in jail...it makes them look good for the parole board so they get a sentence reduction for "good behavior".

I want to start by saying, I am not a mean person, just observant. Didn't Paris have a *** tape or something? And she's worried about someone getting a pic of her using the toilet? This kind of doesn't add up to me. If people have seen it all, what more is there to show? And about the Hilton money, if all of these people who have gotten all this money from their parents had it taken away, they wouldn't be able to last a day in "the real world" How are we gonna eat today, get to work, pay for perscription...this is what the "real working Americans" go through everyday. Take a minute and think about it, the harder we work, the less we get. People who don't work at all seem to get it all. Imagine how good the children of this world would be if teachers got paid as much as Paris Hilton.

Paris Hilton has become a caricature of all the worst celebrities rolled into one. She has so real talent except to showing up on a red carpet and doing her pouty pose for the cameras. She has nothing to contribute to the entertainment world, except for living like an overpaid cartoon. It is too much to hope, that she spends her time in jail reflecting on the life she is squandering. Too bad she doesn%u2019t use her fame to shed light on problems and issues of the world instead of what outfit looks right for what club that night.
As for the party, I hope every casino and hotel tells the Hiltons %u201CNo!%u201D
