Paris Hilton’s burglar sentenced to two years in prison.
The man who tried to burglarize Paris Hilton’s Los Angeles home last August has now been sentenced to two years in state prison. Nathan Lee Parada was found guilty of felony attempt in the first degree burglary in April.
The prosecution said Parada came from the Redlands to L.A., then bought a star map in order to locate Hilton’s home. He then walked to Hilton’s home armed with two knives.
When Parada was arrested he claimed that he was planning to “get money to go live on a deserted island”. During his attempt to break into the home, both Hilton and then boyfriend, Cy Waits, were at home. Both Hilton and Waits testified in court against Parada.
“I drew the gun on him and I screamed at him to drop the knives,” Waits told the court. He went on to say that Hilton ran to get the phone when they heard him trying to break into the window.
In 2008 the infamous teenage ‘Burglar Bunch’ stole millions of dollars in jewelry, handbags and other luxury items from Hilton before hitting other homes.

When the paramedics arrived at the star’s Maida Vale home, he was found “slumped” over on the floor. Meyers refused medical attention so the paramedics called the police.
“Officers were called by London Ambulance Service following reports of a man refusing treatment,” Scotland Yard confirmed. “The man was taken to hospital.”
The 33 year old was taken by ambulance to the hospital for medical attention. A source later told the Sun, “This is very sad. It was the opinion of those present that he tried to take his life.”
Wednesday morning the hospital discharged Meyers, but had “no comment” when asked about his condition.
Sources say Meyers has been battling his drinking problem for years and in June he went into a South African rehab facility for his fifth round of treatment.

Emily Maynard and Brad Womack are over.
Last March ‘The Bachelor’ Brad Womack got down on one knee and proposed to Emily Maynard on the season finale. But once the cameras stopped rolling and things went back to normal, the two were not able to keep the love alive.
Maynard told People, “We’re no longer engaged.”
There have been a lot of rumors floating around that the two were no longer together and now Maynard is talking about the failed relationship to end all the “media speculation”. The 25 year old wants to “move on and get back to normal.”
It has been difficult for Maynard to protect her six year old daughter, Ricki with all of the spotlight. Ricki was less than excited to meet Womack during the hometown dates.
Maynard does not blame Womack for the breakup, but he is taking full responsibility for the break up. Womack, 38, told People, “The demise of our relationship was completely my fault”.
Maynard says it is neither of their faults. She says the two still have a great amount of respect and love for one another. She added, “Just because we love each other doesn’t mean we’re right for each other.”
Chris Harrison will sit down and talk to Maynard on July 11. Maybe she will be the next ‘Bachelorette’.

Linda has a new book out that she is currently promoting called ‘Wrestling the Hulk: My Life Against the Ropes’. In the book she writes that Hulk “tore my shirt. He threw lamps. He held me down on the bed with his hands around my throat during arguments, slamming doors, pounding walls. I was always afraid he would kill me in one of his rages.”
Linda went on to say that Hulk “did not feel remorse. And to this day he hasn’t apologized for any of his actions.”
Linda went on to say that she never turned him to authorities. She went on to say, ” Had I said something, the carpet would have been pulled out from underneath his career. … It’s scary. You don’t know how far they will go.”
Linda says 10 years into their marriage, she found out that Hulk was having an affair. She went on to say that she thought drugs were a factor into his behavior. She added, “The drugs were always around,” and that there was a “constant flow of pain pills.”
The two had a very public divorce in 2007. She told Lauer, “There are a lot of women out there in the world that are going through the same thing that I went to. if they can learn something from what I wrote, I hope I can help people.”
Hulk is not sitting by without making comments to his ex-wife’s new book and comments. He called into a radio show and said Linda’s remarks were “delusional” and that the abuse talk was “a cold, blatant lie.
