The truth of the matter is that, celebrity or not, it's rare to be treated with absolute fairness by the criminal justice system. It depends on who you are and who's your attorney and who's the prosecutor and what judge you happen to end up in front of. Things even out, but only in the abstract. Case by case, someone's always getting treated too harsh or too leniently. Justice is surely not blind. The best you can hope for is that she's squinting a bit when you're on the dock.
