Nicole Richie quickly sprung from jail after more than 1 hour

LYNWOOD (AP) - Nicole Richie was released from jail Thursday, just 82 minutes after the pregnant TV reality star checked in for what started out as a 90-hour sentence for driving under the influence of drugs.

The reality show star, who checked into jail in this Los Angeles suburb at 3:15 p.m., was released at 4:37 p.m. "based on her sentence and federal guidelines," Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Maribel Rizo said without elaborating.

When asked whether Richie spent her brief sentence in a jail cell, Rizo replied: "No further comment."

Richie's release was first reported by theinsideronline.com.
