Quest is a dickhead
CNN reporter Richard Quest will avoid jail despite being arrested in Central park on drug charges.
Quest, 46, was arrested early Friday morning with a small amount of methamphetamine.
The CNN International travel reporter agreed to undergo drug counseling and therapy in exchange for avoiding time behind bars.
The New York Post reports that Quest was found with a rope around his neck that was tied to his genitals, and a sex toy in his boot. The paper quotes unnamed law-enforcement sources in its report.
Quest was approached by police because he was in the park after 1 a.m., which is the official closing time for the Manhattan landmark.
The reporter is represented by Alan M. Abramson. He says his client was simply returning to his hotel with friends and didn't realize that the park had a curfew.
CNN is not commenting but its Web site said, "He has become one of the network's highest profile presenters," and his "dynamic and distinctive style has made hima unique figure in the field of business and news broadcasting."
