The 3:22-minute long video appeared on YouTube, on Saturday, under the title, 'Flippa Mafia Speaks and Is Out On Bail In The United States'.

Slater faces up to seven years in prison on charges of reckless endangerment, criminal mischief and criminal trespassing. Prosecutors have said Slater could have killed or grievously injur...

In fact, Hilton's three-hour stay at the Clark County Detention Center was five to 21 hours shorter than that of someone else booked for the same offense.

"Yeah, she was treated differently so I don't have a disruption of my process here at the county jail," Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Deputy Chief Jim Dixon, who runs the detention center, told the Las Vegas REview-Journal. "When you bring somebody in like that, everybody comes over and tries to look at them. I'd have off...
