Paris Hilton and New Drug Offenses

Posted on: September 21, 2010 at 5:40 p.m.

Paris Hilton, America's favorite celebutant, was arrested recently for drug possession in Las Vegas, and was once again in need of a skilled Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney. Paris Hilton was pulled over in Las Vegas and over the course of the investigation, police found her to be in possession of cocaine. She pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges, allowing her to avoid jail time. Under the deal, she pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors, will serve one year of probation, pay a $2,000 fine and serve 200 hours of community service. Her Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney worked hard to make sure she got the best defense possible. Under her plea deal, Paris Hilton went from being charged with a felony to being charged with misdemeanors.

Paris Hilton admitted to lying to the arresting officer when confronted about the cocaine found in her purse (she suggested it was her friend's purse, not her own). The judge gave her a scolding and sent her on her way. She was arrested on August 27 with her boyfriend, CY Waits, while driving a black SUV. They were stopped when police smelled marijuana and the police lieutenant found .8 grams of cocaine on Paris Hilton. Her Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney was immediately called in to take care of the situation, defend her in court, and make sure she didn't spend any more time in jail than she had to.

A skilled Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney can help defend you against all sorts of drug offenses, from drug possession to drug trafficking. Each drug offense has serious consequences if you are convicted, including jail time, mandatory counseling, huge fines and much more. People who are convicted of felony drug offenses are in danger of spending decades in jail and of being targetted by law enforcement for the rest of their lives.
