Arnold Schwarzenegger, Paris Hilton Petition



May 9, 2007 -- The Governator has vowed to take "seriously" a bid to spare Paris Hilton a stretch behind bars. He'll personally review any petitions or letters the office receives on Hilton's behalf, said Aaron McLear, a spokesman for California. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

"The governor will certainly pay attention to it and act accordingly," McLear said. "He will treat it seriously, like we do all other requests for his help."

Schwarzenegger's office said it has not yet received the petition launched by Hilton fan Joshua Capone calling for the governor to pardon the pampered heir-head.

It has already garnered more than 1,000 signatures.

"Should we receive the request, we'll take action," McLear said. "At this point, we have not received a formal document, so it's premature because she needs to exhaust all her judicial remedies first."
