Steve Remige, the president of the Association of Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs (ALADS), claims the hotel heiress has only been allowed to serve the rest of her sentence under house arrest because of her celebrity.
He tells Web site TMZ.com, "There appears to have been preferential treatment. This is not the first time that this has happened. Remember Mel Gibson.
"On any given day, a thousand female inmates are in custody. Why is one case, out of the blue, treated any different than them?"
Hilton was serving a 23-day sentence in Los Angeles' Century Regional Detention Center for violating her parole following a 2006 drunk-driving arrest. She was sent home earlier today after just three days behind bars.
Hilton's sentence has been returned to the 45 days initially agreed in court. This will be served at her home--Hilton has been fitted with an ankle bracelet--and under the supervision of the Los Angeles Probation Office.
The time she has spent counts as five days, so she has 40 days remaining.
