Khloe Kardashian’s brief stint in jail may have spawned one of the Kardashians’ most-quoted lines, but list fans may have forgotten the ins and outs of her arrest.
The Kardashians new show has recently launched on Hulu after Keeping Up With The Kardashians was shelved, but fans still remember the topic from the very first season.
Here’s everything you need to know about Khloe’s arrest, which spawned Kris Jenner’s iconic quote: ‘Kim, would you stop taking pictures of yourself, your sister is going to jail.’
Why did Khloe Kardashian go to jail?
Khloe Kardashian was arrested for DUI (driving under the influence) in 2007 in California after she was pulled over by police and failed a series of sobriety tests.
The reality star was initially ordered to do community service and complete an alcohol education course as her punishment.
She did complete her community service but ended up violating her parole by missing several sessions due to her hectic schedule getting in the way.
Khloe was then sentenced to 30 days in jail and to complete an alcohol treatment program.
How long did Khloe Kardashian spend in jail?
While Khloe was supposed to spend 30 days in jail, the actual time she spent behind bars was much shorter.
Khloe actually ended up spending less than a day in jail and was released after less than three hours due to overcrowding.
This is not uncommon for jails to release non-violent offenders if they are short on space, however Khloe’s representatives confirmed she had been willing to serve her full sentence.
Her rep said at the time: ‘Khloe is ready and willing to serve out her sentence, no matter how long and where, and have this resolved.’
