Famous bimbo arrested for coke possession in Vegas
2010-08-28
Famous bimbo Paris Hilton was arrested on the Las Vegas Strip late Friday after police saw a cloud of what they suspected was marijuana smoke wafting from the windows of a black Cadillac Escalade driven by the latest guy to bang her her boyfriend, then found a small amount of cocaine in her possession.
Yes, let's cruise the strip in my Escalade trailing a cloud of pot smoke. I'm sure the cops won't mind...
A crowd quickly gathered near the stop on Las Vegas Boulevard near the Wynn Las Vegas resort at about 11:30 p.m. PDT Friday, and Hilton was taken into the hotel "to keep her safe" during the initial investigation, police Lt. Wayne Holman said.
Begorrah, Muldoon! Get her inside! There's a lynch mob forming!
The 29-year-old socialite and Las Vegas nightclub mogul Cy Waits were booked into the Clark County jail, police said. Hilton was released early Saturday morning without bail.
Ah. "Socialite". Is that what they call it these days?
Officer Marcus Martin said police found that Hilton had a substance that tests later showed to be cocaine, but he did not say how much of the drug was found. She was arrested on a felony cocaine possession charge. If convicted of the low-grade felony, Hilton would get probation, but any violation would be punishable by one to four years in jail.
Yes, of course it will...
Just like Lindsey Lohan ...
Hilton's attorney, David Chesnoff, told The Associated Press on Saturday morning that he was still gathering facts about the arrest. "But I caution people not to rush to judgment," he said.
Oh, certainly not...

#10  More juicy details...

The officer "followed the vapor trail and the odor of marijuana to the Escalade," police Sgt. John Sheahan said.

Vapor trail???

"Miss Hilton pulled out a tube of lip balm," Sheahan said. "At the same time ... a bindle of cocaine in a plastic bag came out of her purse" in plain view of police in the room.

Whooopsie...
I'll bet Paris Hilton's lip balm supplier makes more than her coke dealer.

Asking her to keep her legs closed places an undue hardship on the poor girl.

#7  The Hollywood party set could do whatever they wanted in their mansions and nobody would know differently (I suspect previous generations understood that mostly) and the paparazi and cops would be denied opportunities to get involved in their lives.

The fact that they don't says they are entitled and stupid and starving for any attention whatsoever.

#6  NS, your unknown black dude smoking crack only keeps his supplier employed, a public defender, and maybe the team producing 48 Hours. However, Ms Bimbo keeps legions of print and broadcast tabloid media, not to mention the family law retainers, and her supply chain employed in this recession. Like GM, Chrysler, the UAW and Teachers Unions, she's too big to allow to fail. /sarc off

#5  What would she get if she were some unknown black dude smoking crack? Our jails are needlessly filled with such pathetic folks while sluts like Paris learn how to get away with more and more. Show her the slammer.

#4  they'll drop it to a misdemeanor with 90 days of public service:

#3  Oooo...a felony. Good luck traveling internationally after that. Visa applications are kind of hard to fill out, and don't they take your passport after you've been convicted? I say she gets out of it without a felony conviction.

So as not to be confused with the more honorable 'working ladies' of Las Vegas.
