Dressed in a short-sleeved jacket and jeans, the blonde heiress stepped out smiling at the pack of photographers and ran to hug her mother Kathy Hilton, who was waiting in a car to whisk her away.

The 26-year-old reality television star and heiress to the Hilton hotel empire was jailed for violating probation over a conviction for alcohol-related reckless driving, drawing frenzied media attention.

She had came out on June 7 after three days citing unspecified medical reasons, but on a judge's order was put back in the Century Regional Detention Facility in the Los Angeles suburb of Lynwood a day later.
