'Vapor trail' leads to Paris Hilton's Vegas arrest

Quote :

"LAS VEGAS – Smoke wafting from a Cadillac Escalade on the Las Vegas Strip ignited Paris Hilton's latest legal troubles late Friday, when a motorcycle officer who suspected the smell was marijuana stopped the vehicle and police say a bag of cocaine fell out of the 29-year-old socialite's purse. It's the second time this year Hilton has been arrested on drug possession allegations, although authorities in South Africa dropped marijuana charges earlier this summer. In 2007, Hilton pleaded no contest to alcohol-related reckless driving and was sentenced to 45 days in jail. This time, the hotel heiress was with her boyfriend, Las Vegas nightclub mogul Cy Waits, who manages a club inside the Wynn Las Vegas and was driving the black SUV that the officer stopped nearby at 11:22 p.m. Friday. The officer "followed the vapor trail and the odor of marijuana to the Escalade," police Sgt. John Sheahan said. As other police arrived and a crowd gathered on the busy neon-lit Strip, Hilton asked to go into the Wynn resort for privacy, Sheahan said. "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."

I'm surprised the Tea Party isn't up in arms over this clear liberal agenda in violating individual's rights. LET THE COKE HEADS ROAM FREE AND LET THE COKE DEALERS COMPETE AND BRING DOWN THE PRICE OF COKE. WE NEED LESS GOVERNMENT REGULATION.

8/28/2010 7:04:07 PM

Not all cokeheads are skinny. (eg Maradona)

8/28/2010 7:41:18 PM

She's just dumb. Why go for your lip glass in your bag when you know you've got coke in your bag. Geebus.

8/28/2010 8:32:49 PM

^ Probably a mail officer and she wanted to beat the ticket.

you're getting your political ideology completely confused

8/28/2010 8:47:37 PM

^ Hardly. And those damn liberals want to ban Gay marriage.

"mail officer"

See, I never just did things just to do them. Come on, what am I gonna do? Just all of a sudden jump up and grind my feet on somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on. I got a little more sense then that.




Yeah, I remember grinding my feet on Eddie's couch.

we need legalize drugs. could spend the law enforcement money instead on prevention campaigns and treatment centers.

federal drug laws are unconstitutional anyways. there is no amendment like the one that was required to ban alcohol.

8/29/2010 6:28:21 AM

I, too, knew Paris Hilton was a coke whore.

8/29/2010 9:33:55 AM

This whole incident will get way more media coverage than any number of disasters and tragedies happening all over the world.

I think simple possession in Nevada carries a mandatory 1 year sentence. It will be interesting to see how she buys her way out of this one.

8/29/2010 1:13:04 PM

8/29/2010 1:21:29 PM

People still give a shit about her?

i would honestly rather hear about paris hilton being a stupid bitch so it would give me something to laugh about rather than depressing shit like disasters and tragedies that already fill the news anyway.

ignorance is bliss, huh?

8/29/2010 1:34:18 PM

she might be dumb, but at least she's good looking

maybe i should rephrase

while i think it's important to be aware of shit going on domestically and around the world, it just seems like a majority of what you hear is about some catastrophe that killed a bunch of people, or some atrocious acts of violence being committed somewhere, or how shitty and depressing the current economic status is. celebrities getting in trouble are certainly not very news worthy and pretty inconsequential compared to more serious matters, but hearing about lindsay lohan's 7th DUI is kind of a breath of fresh air at times.
