A lawyer by trade, Lisa says Paris got a “raw deal.”
“I made this bracelet because she is a loyal customer, she’s always been nice to me, she’s a nice girl, people don’t give her enough credit,” says Lisa. “She made a mistake and she learned her lesson. Suspend her license, put her in jail for a few days, but 45 days in a prison with murderers is NOT the answer. Even Martha Stewart went to a country club. I’m not saying she shouldn’t take responsibility—but the sentencing was harsh and used to make an example out of her.”
