Is her sentence too harsh?

I have watched all the news programs.  It seems many say Paris Hilton is being made an example of and that no one else would have had a 45 day sentence.  I also heard when she yelled, "This isn't fair!", it was in reference to not being allowed to hug her mother.  Personally, I think house arrest would have been sufficient.  Jail is no place for a young woman when there are more severe criminals out there.  I know she is rich, but if she is stuck up, it is her parents fault.  She told her lawyers not to appeal her sentence, that she would try to serve it.  Yes, she did wrong, but to punish her more than non-celebrities would have been punished seems wrong to me.  There is a whole website dedicated to freeing Paris.  But, are they capitalizing on this, or do they really care?  I don't know.
