Paris Hilton Testifies in Court: In Favor of Utah Bill
Warning: The following article may cause emotional distress to readers.
Paris Hilton, 39, spoke in court on Monday, testifying about her traumatizing experiences of abuse in a residential treatment centre designed for “troubled teens.”
Hilton testified to provide her support for the Bill designed to require more government oversight and to document the use of restraints in youth residential treatment facilities and centres.
“They carried me out of my home as I screamed.”

While providing her harrowing testimony to lawmakers, Hilton broke down in tears. “They carried me out of my home as I screamed at the top of my lungs for my parents’ help. I was taken to the airport and separated from everything and everyone I knew and loved.”
This paints a contrasting image from the fun loving “The Simple Life” socialite that adorned the silver screen for much of the early 2000’s.
Hilton was institutionalized against her will when she was 16. Her parents signed her in to the Provo Canyon School in Utah. Two transporters arrived at her home and forcibly removed Paris from her bed while she was sleeping. “They asked me if I wanted to go the easy way or the hard way.“

In the 2020 YouTube original documentary ‘This is Paris‘, Paris details her experiences in the teen treatment centre, likening it to “hell itself on earth“.
