In all reality, he probably never even saw the actual prison. His 24 hours were most likely burned up inprocessing, outprocessing and if anything, in a holding cell by himself. It takes most prisoners days, sometimes weeks, to get inside to the actual general population.

Arpaio: no special treatment for jailed US Air chief

U.S. Airways CEO Doug Parker completed his drunk driving jail sentence Sunday, but his 24-hour stay was hardly business as usual.
Parker was released at 6:30 a.m. Sunday from the Estrella Jail next to Tent City in Phoenix, a 1,200-inmate facility where the population is nearly always women.
Parker, who remained in his street clothes, was the only male inmate during his short stay, which began at 6:15 a.m. Saturday, according to sheriff's records. Other inmates serving very short sentences also are not required to wear uniforms.
Parker sat in a cell by himself in an unused area of the jail.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, insisted Parker did not receive special treatment and the move to place him a women's jail was to protect him.
"The reason why I did it is because he is a high profile and I wanted to make sure he was safe," Arpaio said.
Parker, 45, pleaded guilty last week to driving under the influence after he was pulled over in January for speeding after leaving the Birds Nest party at the FBR Open golf tournament in Scottsdale.
"My responsibility was to take him in my jail. He held himself responsible for his actions. He pled guilty and he did his time in jail," Arpaio said. "He paid the penalty."
Arpaio said Parker was served two "15-cent meals," which included a bologna sandwich for lunch and a hot dog without a bun and two cold veggie sides for dinner. Parker's beverage of choice was water.
"He wasn't lucky," Arpaio said.
