Hollywood reacts to Paris' transfer

Harvey Levin, managing editor, TMZ.com: "Here's what we've learned. The shrink she has been seeing yesterday and the day before convinced sheriff officials she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. This really complicates things for her because people aren't buying the nutcase defense. They saw her at the MTV awards and she looked sane. And she was able to help pull off that stunt to shake just about every camera in town except ours on her way to jail, but suddenly she is a basketcase? The irony is that yesterday I heard she was doing better than the day before--slept some and was adjusting to life behind bars. I think this has triggered a huge controversy that is going to last an awful long time for the sheriff's department and lead to an investigation of the circumstances surrounding her release. I'm not saying she wasn't or was a head case. I'm just saying a lot of people aren't buying it."
