Should celebs get special treatment from the law?

Is it only right that given the extra pressures they find themselves under, stars should be shown a little leniency in times of trouble? Or do you think celebrities should be made an example of - they are after all, role models for many people?

    no one should get special treatment from the law.
    celebrities should uphold the law setting an example to all those people who think for some reason that the celebrities are cool.
    if they try and blame their crimes on stresses of work
    why dont they go down the jobcentre and look for something that they can handle a bit better.

    They are only people, not gods or goddesses, or saints. Most of them have got where they are by being in the right place at the right time. No they should not be given special treatment just because they are famous, I think in some circumstances they break the law because they think being famous will get them off lightly.
