Paris Hilton Transferred To Lynwood Jail

TMZ has confirmed that Paris Hilton was shipped back to the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood last night — the same jail where she allegedly teetered on the verge of a mental breakdown. Authorities decided she was OK to leave the medical ward at Twin Towers jail in downtown Los Angeles.

Sources tell TMZ that Hilton has been doing much better with the proper meds, and we’re told that there has been pressure on the Sheriff’s Department to move her back to the Lynwood jail when the medical facility was no longer necessary. We’re told that now Hilton has been deemed “medically stable.”

What remains to be seen is if the medicines Hilton was taking will continue to be properly administered .

A rep for the L.A. County Sheriff tells TMZ that Paris was taken from the correctional treatment center at Twin Towers “late last night” and was transported back to Lynwood. The last time she did time at Lynwood, she was in a solitary cell in a special needs unit.

The Sheriff’s Department has scheduled a press conference for 8:00 AM PDT. TMZ has learned that the news conference at 8:00 AM will last all of 30 seconds and won’t address any further issues.

UPDATE: A Sheriff’s rep tells TMZ that Paris will be in the medical clinic at Lynwood until they are sure she will remain medically stable. After that, Paris will move to the same cell she was in before she left the facility.

UPDATE: We’re told that Hilton was transferred last night around 11:00 PM.
