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.
Police Officer Marcus Martin characterized the cocaine as a "small amount," or a package of the size usually associated with personal use. Police would not specify the weight of the cocaine or whether any marijuana was confiscated.
Hilton was arrested on suspicion of felony cocaine possession. If convicted of the low-grade felony, she would get probation, but any violation of that probation would be punishable by up to one to four years in Nevada state prison.
Waits, 34, was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Misdemeanors are punishable by up to a year in county jail. Police said he owned the 2009 Cadillac.
Hilton and Waits were booked into the Clark County jail, where Sheahan said Hilton was kept handcuffed on a booking room bench, fingerprinted, photographed and released without bail about 2:45 a.m. Saturday.
Waits' lawyer, Richard Schonfeld, said Waits posted $2,000 bail Saturday. Waits was released Saturday afternoon.
Sheahan said Hilton was not taken to a cell and received no special treatment on a busy Friday night and Saturday morning at the jail. He said release without bail was common in such cases.
Hilton, a prolific tweeter, didn't mention the arrest on her Twitter site, although less than an hour after she was released her account was updated with a posting that said the actress was in bed watching the television show "Family Guy."
It was unclear if the tweets came from her, were posted by time-release or were sent by someone else.
Hilton's attorney, David Chesnoff, told The Associated Press on Saturday morning that he was still gathering facts about the arrest.
"This matter will be dealt with in the courts not in the media and I encourage people not to rush to judgment until all of the facts have been dealt with in a court of law," Chesnoff said later in a statement. "There will be no interviews and no more comments at this time."
Schonfeld said he was "troubled by the circumstances" leading to the arrest, but declined to specify his concerns.
"As the case proceeds, a lot of facts are going to come to light that will ultimately lead to exoneration," Schonfeld said.
Court dates for Hilton and Waits were not immediately available. Clark County District Attorney David Roger declined to comment Saturday about the case.
A spokeswoman for Wynn Resorts in Las Vegas did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment.
Waits and his twin brother, Jesse, are managing partners of the Tryst Nightclub inside Wynn Las Vegas, Drai's after hours club at Bill's Gamblin' Hall & Saloon, and XS The Nightclub at Wynn's Encore resort. A spokeswoman for Harrah's resorts declined immediate comment.
Earlier this week, Hilton was in the news when a 31-year-old man allegedly tried to break into her Los Angeles home.
Authorities have said that someone carrying two big knives banged on Hilton's window Tuesday. She posted a photo of the arrest on Twitter and described it as "scary." Nathan Lee Parada faces a felony burglary charge.
Hilton was arrested this summer after the Brazil-Netherlands World Cup match in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, on suspicion of possession of marijuana. The case was then dropped at a midnight court hearing.
Hilton pleaded no contest in 2007 to alcohol-related reckless driving and was sentenced to 45 days in jail. After spending about 23 days in jail, Hilton told CNN host Larry King that the experience caused her to re-evaluate the role partying played in her life. She said she wanted "to help raise money for kids and for breast cancer and multiple sclerosis."
While most famous for her tabloid exploits and reality TV series "The Simple Life," Hilton has appeared in the films "Bottoms Up," "The Hottie & the Nottie" and "House of Wax."

Paris is simply a rich junkie.
Paris is supporting the violence in Mexico!
Or
Lets end the prohibition on drugs!
Whatever your opinion might be, I say lets end the prohibition and treat it as a public health issue!
Marijuana smoke coming from the car? That sounds like something out of "Up in Smoke".
Poor Tinkerbell, probably still high as a kite!
That's right mrjb, "Blood Drugs!"
Who was the other person(s) in the car?
So much for Vegas being a party town for the rich and famous. "What happens here, stays here" is all gone for good. This story has been on MSNBC already.
Paris got lucky she is still alive. She could have been killed pointing a rolled up $100 dollar bill at Metro.
This female piece of crap isn't worth all the publicity.
I remember last year, Paris Hilton was in Dubai and was paid a lot of money by them in return for her flashing her face and posing stupidly. And she said then (quote): "Wow. Dubai is much more classier than Las Vegas."
Then one month after that, she shows up at a nightclub at P-Ho drunk and passed out on the floor.
So, my point is this....
This is news?
She is over sexed, over used, over blown, under talented, over spoilt and....over here in Las Vegas.
We're stuck with her. Like a moth to a flame.
She was already released from the jail with no bail. On a Friday night, she is already getting special treatment
Who is Paris Hilton?
She probably got busted just to be in the news and steal the attention away from Lohan.
she's still alive? Which one is gonna kick it first,her or lindsay? damn shame about lindsay,she looked so hot in Mean Girls.
Anyone whos arrested on a Friday night stays in jail til Monday. Her car could have killed somebody. Wonder what she will call her new perfume now? It should have a prison scene.
what a waste of space
This is exactly why the weathiest 3% need more of their Bush tax cuts.
Attorney fees are out of control.
make her do the perp walk
"cinderelladream" is pretty clearly a jealous woman in classic attack mode. The user name says it all.
I don't hold any special place in my heart for Ms. Hilton (or any vapid celebs) but I don't let envy turn into anonymous hate, either. Some of my fellow humans are just pathetic. Nowhere in the story does it state that the driver was arrested for DUI, just Hilton for possession.
Legalize all drugs, let the chips fall where they may.
Sharp eye cop? What doe marijuana smoke look like?
At least Paris didn't become a mother and drop out of high school at the age of sixteen like the daughter of family values queen Sarah Palin.
Then again, Paris wasn't raised in a trailer part, either.
Well I guess the new "Camp Vegas" slogan is really drawing in the perfect crowd uh? Good job LVCVA!
I was really hoping that Miami was going to be the place this scum decide to hang out in, since they now have Jersey Shore, Bad Girls club, and the Kardashians, but until the casinos stop with the spring break style parties and clubs, this is what you get. I'm just glad they didn't kill anyone driving around high like that.
I hope she's still on probation, and they send her back to LA to do more jail time!
Paris Hilton...a hollywood brat? Not even close bud. You think the Hiltons are liberals?
Why are you not at the Beck-a-palooza? He likes to make up crap like that also.
I would trade coke for crack.
Cool, this means that we'll get to see her in a new tv series. She'll be starring in an episode of Las Vegas Jailhouse. Let's see how Officer Nicole Sittre implors her words of wisdom on Paris.
Paris is "totally hot".
Looks like Vegas is finally waking up!
Sentence her to the party pits.
Of all the people Metro shoots, why couldn't she have been one of them?
I'd just like to do a line between here ....
OMG! Some tourist are in possesion of cocaine in Vegas?
Say it ain't, Joe.
Paris Hilton: Poster child for why the inheritance tax is a good thing.
Vegas would be a much better place without the likes of Ms Hilton. Run her out of the state for good.
...and of course, if her name was Paris Schnmuckosky, as opposed to Hilton, the LVMPD would follow the bail schedule and force her to either post bail or enjoy CCDC's hospitality until a JP could see her on Monday.
What, no gun blazing SWAT raid on her SUV?
On a more serious note: Young men and women die everyday in Afghanistan so the wealthy 1% have an uninterrupted supply of "blood coke".
Another forgotten war, the war on drugs, which has been fought for 90 years and no end in sight. Read on here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_on_Drugs
As long as the Republican Tea Bag Party is voting no on drug policy reform and yes on big government Drug Law Enforcement Policies, more tax dollars will be spend and more blood will be shed.
The bitch will get off with a slap on the wrist. America has stooped to glamourize those that break the rules and punish those that try to live righteously.
Paris is just another spoiled little white rich girl who always gets mommy and daddy (and their money) on her side. She's the train wreck that we can't look away from. I'm just mad that she can commit so many damn crimes and get away with a slap on the wrist. Lives were at stake, remember when that one guy ran over a pedestrian? Yeah.
If it was ANY OTHER regular woman, her ass would be in jail, through the weekend, and facing a dozen or so charges and up to years in lock up. I'm waiting for a judge to throw the goddamn book at her.
they must have done a cavity search and found it.
Does she stay at the Vegas Hilton when in town? I hope she gets one year in jail.
Cindarelladream;How is it in another post you are all gaga over the "Skank" Courtney Love" who has all the same problems as Paris and more?Oh well hypocracy is probably only another part of your "American Dream" you so well stated recently?
isn't this morons 15 minutes up yet? she is utterly classless.
So Metro did not apply their standard procedure here: Guns blazing and screaming; draggin' them out of their car; giving them a taste of the blistering hot, grimy Strip tarmac; reading the Miranda Act and handcuffing them while the crowed is cheering. Looks like by the report Paris and here companion got instead the white police glove treatment.
I wonder what would happen to me and my friend if Metro caught us in a MJ smoke filled car and I had a "small" amount of cocain on me.
She just better be happy she wasn't shot for a furtive movement.
What does marijuana smoke look like? Is it a different color?
Looked like Marijuana smoke....now that's a real stretch to use for a car stop.
Chunky says:
Spending a few weeks in jail must not have made a difference or she just realizes that when you can afford the best legal representation in the world it doesn't matter?
That's what Chunky thinks!
OMG Paris Hilton gets nailed with a small amount cocaine on the Las vegas Strip strip!!! We have got major crime in Las Vegas: killings, home enviasions, gang bangers, rapes and all happening every nite but lets arrest Paris Hilton for nothing.(that right go for it all you posters-absolutly nothing!!) "The entertainment for the poor is the misfourtunes of the rich".................
And I'm sure she'll do no jail time and be free to travel around the world as she always does. They should ban the useless slut from this town.
Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, OJ do you see a pattern here? The law doesn't apply to them.
She should also be charged with stupidity being hooked up that fool "Cy". When the SUV made the left onto the strip in front of the hotel the tourists were so lucky they werent in that crosswalk! I would like to say i hope they learn a lesson but unfortunatly that isnt going to happen. Is there a reward for calling the cops on a celeb? I could make some money!
Steve Wynn can't be too happy with Mr. Waits today.
Its never hers. Oh those aren't my pants, that's not my purse, WTF lock her up for a little while. She's a pig !
All that money and they can't even wait to get back to their hotel and get high...
Sounds like two idiots driving around in high school.
Two movie clips come to mind:

Paris is another spoiled brat but also she does or did earn money as a model and her own products. Maybe she needs to go back to work. She does need help with drug use. And she can pay for it. People this is Vegas where celebrats and the famous can be seen at their worst and their best. All talent come here to perform at one time or another and are great at it. This is one of the values of Vegas. And we have to take the good and the bad and work with it. They are people too and money and limelight does give lots of hightened blessings and huge lessons. She should be forced into rehab and people need to have compassion. Stop being jealous of the rich. Their lessons maybe different but they are God's lessons given to them just like ours.
Change the laws...we do not need any drug laws...one should be allowed to be stupid without penalty of a felony...what a waste of time and effort...
What is so bad in her life that she has to escape the reality of it. Inherited wealth is very bad for kids.
She's a hotty, and I would love to spend some time with her..
i wonder if mr. wynn will enjoy the xtra scutiny the twins have now brought to his casino.
Wait,
She gets released with a felony, yet her boyfriend is still in jail waiting for his bail to get posted and he is only facing misdemeanor charges.
Can't we go one day where the Clark County Justice system treats everyone with the same even hand?
released from jail with out bail. I NEED ANOTHER BEER !!
wizardofoz, no they wouldn't. Enough already. A flight risk? She couldn't walk across the street without someone noticing. Give it a rest already. It is someone to be released without bail. You all need to learn the law.
And Richard Schonfeld, you're an idiot. There is nothing that is going to exonerate him.
lastthroes: "Trailer part?" You must have dropped out in 12th grade. As for legalizing drugs, I'm all for it even though you must be nuts to get involved with them. Sooner or later they will control your life and that is not good. However, since the "War on Drugs" has proven to have been an expensive failure, the manpower could be put to better use such as enforcing traffic regulations and catching real criminals.
Could it be any more obvious that conderelladream is a bitter woman who can't get work in a Wynn nightclub?
Oh yes, the ol' "saw you blow pot smoke out your window" detective trick! What kind of crap is that?
And they searched the passengers why?
Beware GESTAPO 911.
As her punishment, I say they send her to Mexico. And not the touristy part either. I hear it's lovely this time of year.
I wish she had made a furtive movement.
Paris has corrupted Las Vegas forever. What will we do?
The "it's not mine defense" didn't work for me when I was 12 and my mom found some Playboys under my bed. I certainly hope that the Las Vegas courts hold the same standard.
She has nothing to do with the Las Vegas Hilton. That name is only leased to keep them in business. Without that sign the place would dry up and blow away...kind of like Paris. Without the name, she would be nothing. I am tired of hearing them scream at employees when daddy isnt looking. I'm sure Richard and Kathy are not very happy with her. They are great folks but that child is horrible!
Cy will be safer in jail than dealing with Mr. Wynn right now.
legalize it
Well, at least Metro didn't "mistake" her coke spoon for a handgun and shoot her . . . . .
""Both were booked into the Clark County jail, where Martin said Hilton was released without bail about 2:45 a.m. Saturday. Sgt. John Sheahan said Hilton received no special treatment during her brief time at the jail, and that release without bail was common in such cases.""
What such case is that,John?
I'm sure if I was busted for felony coke posession,i would be out without bail.
Metro Police just released two mug shots. They have been added to the story.
Chunky, once again, you are the words of wisdom.
Just as a side note.....
If that is a valid mug shot of Paris Hilton after her arrest, she appears to be taking the whole thing in stride and doesn't seem too concerned at all.
From the look in that mug shot, it appears she seems to be not serious about this whole thing and is looking at it rather as a chance to gain further publicity.
I really hope that mug shot is shown to the judge she will appear in front of and he takes note of it.
If found guilty, that mug shot is not going to look good for her if she tries to profusely apologize and contend some kind of remorse.
She can continue to practice that stupid profilin' and stylin' the world is my stage thing in a desert prison somewhere. Maybe that will sink in.
She got prison one time before for something else and cried her eyes out, playing that pity thing. Looking at that debacle from before in hindsight compared to this new nonsense, they were indeed crocodile tears. Guess that wasn't enough to send a message to her. This time it's going to be worse. No remorse this time. Throw the book at her.
Shaky police work. SEE marijuana smoke? Stop vehicle. Search a passenger's purse? Much ado about nothing, resulting in harrassment. Be safe!
'where Martin said Hilton was released without bail about 2:45 a.m. Saturday. Sgt. John Sheahan said Hilton received no special treatment during her brief time at the jail, and that release without bail was common in such cases.'
What a crock of sh*t. Wasn't she out on bail before?
Just what would happen if it we you or I this happened to?
'Of all the people Metro shoots, why couldn't she have been one of them?'
Yes, they would've done the world a favor. This girl is just a worthless POS. She needs to be put in her place, preferably JAIL, and not some namby pamby jail like the last time. a REAL jail with REAL criminals, like her!
Neither she, nor Lindsay or OJ are above the law.
Nixon found that out.
Paris STOP!!!! Yes STOP!!!! Look around you girl go to any mirror take a good long look. What you are looking at is a loser, someone with so much but not a brain one to use any of it to make themselves better. Get away from your loser friends they care less about you than you do yourself. Hook-up with some winners the world is full of them and become something, make something or do something with your families wealth. Your future will be brighter than it is now. Trust me you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. YOUR MOVE!
To Aaronboy
You urge Ms Hilton to go to a mirror; perhaps she spends too much time with her nose too close to a mirror.
Well, she should consider herself lucky that Metro didn't shoot her. If she had been a nobody from North Las Vegas, it would be a different story. But more than this, how many times can she plead the, "It wasn't mine," defense and get away with it? The girl clearly has issues - with drugs, with honesty, and with an overblow sense of entitlement. Please Paris, just go away.
It's insulting how stupid Metro thinks we are.
"Sheahan said Hilton was not taken to a cell and received no special treatment on a busy Friday night and Saturday morning at the jail. He said release without bail was common in such cases."
Release without bail in three hours? On a felony case? With an out-of-state defendant? Really? Come on guys at least try and make your lies believable. Waits posted bail at 8 a.m. but wasn't released until after 3 p.m. with one misdemeanor charge.
If Metro wants our respect and trust, then they shouldn't lie to us about such trivial matters.
Believe it or not, due to the overwhelming number of people taken to CCDC each night, simple possession of narcotics may be a "walk-thru" and if you do not have a violent history, you my qualify for being released "OR."
This is actually pretty standard, due to the capacity of CCDC and the amount of people booked there daily....
And yes, the guy booked for DUI is gonna be there a while longer, than a possession charge, there are mandatory hold times for DUI arrestees.
If that had of been anybody(non celebrity) or public figure We would still be sitting in jail.The comment that was made Miss Hilton received no special treatment is garbage had she has a record to boot.In jail maybe 3 and a half hours heck they processed her asap and let her go anybody else we would still be sitting there as i said before.
Wee may have even been shot then said we were acting violent.No special treatment my rear end
Why is she together with "Waits"? That guy is so ugly. Somebody as good looking as Paris Hilton can most certainly do much better. She should be able to find someone as good looking as Leonardo Dicaprio. Instead she is going out with such ugly guy who thinks he's above the law to drive under the influence of some substance.
The Gaming Control Board is going to have their hands full this week.
A famous athletes underage son at Haza in City center and the Managing Partner of XS and Tryst arrested for DUI.
How long is the GCB going to allow these outside operators to damage the reputation of the Las Vegas gaming operators.
Here's hoping GCB member Sayre gets involved to help flush out this type of behavior.
You guys REALLY think she's good-looking?? With a chin that rivals Jay Leno's??
Wonder how Wynn will like one of his "representatives" on his property (although not an employee, Cy represents a Wynn property)being arrested for drugs
As for Paris, a slap on the hand by some judge like Lohan's 2nd judge...when wil lany of these Judges slap the book at these spoiled brats to teach them a lesson? If it were me and I did that, I'd be in jail for the full time...ggeezz..
WOw what a shocker. She should run for the republican candidate for governor of Nevada if she lived here. And her boyfriend could have run on the democratic ticket..Any body see the similarities in this comparison? See Steve7952's post and gettocards post.. In my day this was unheard of..
To FRM,
Point well taken. She is probably using the mirror to cut a line anyway. ha. Most never learn, what a waste of space, looks and money.
Those who spend their time figuring out tactics to tax the rich should jump all over this one.
Hilton qualifies for a - Gross Stupidity Tax.
She should forfeit 50% of every dollar made and inherited (in perpetuity) to a fund designed to act as an education endowment for less - over privileged - children.
Her looks are going downhill now. She needs to stop doing drugs, but you know those ultra-rich types can't give up their cocaine. Thanks to people like her, I kind of don't regret not being well-off. The money doesn't really doesn't make you happy. Most ultra-rich people I ever knew were absolutely miserable.
What if that cop had been traveling behind a carload of burrito eating tourists? He would certainly be a smart feller.
Vegas just lost thousands more of potential customers as this further sends the message that "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" is over ...
...And , to all of you who are critical of Paris , let me say this -
If Paris invited you to hang with her and run some lines , you'd be there in a second !
"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."
You ever hear of such a thing?
And it takes almost three hours to get through the first booking room at CCDC, and until then you can't use the phone. So, how did she call her attorney to arrange an O.R?
If I was working at the Jail, I would have pushed her through as quickly as possible too, just to avoid the headache. But, why lie and say that is special treatment? You guys have credibility problems already.
Be honest Metro. We are already impressed that you guys finally can differentiate between a weapon and lip balm.
Baby Steps!
Umm, I'm pretty sure everyone with an IQ over 70 already realized that cocaine possession is illegal, even in Vegas. Newsflash: other things that are illegal in Vegas as well - arson, murder, littering, rape, jaywalking.
@TangiersHotelCasino, I don't know the practices of law enforcement in Vegas in the past, but I would expect the laws on drug enforcement are the same there as in anywhere else. Blatantly blazing on the strip is a good way to get nailed.
Its a shame she didn't get shot when she exited the vehicle. I would call it justified.
'Well, at least Metro didn't "mistake" her coke spoon for a handgun and shoot her . . '
How sad....
C'mon, how else do you expect her and her boyfriend to stay up all night and party, a little blow goes a long way.
I hope Wynn fires both of the twins and they wind up driving Chevy Vega's in Chula Vista going to their jobs at 7-Eleven working the graveyard shift!
Paris Hilton is an idiot. The bigger idiots are the ones who pay $$ to go insids a packed club where she is cordoned off in private area, surrounded by security no doubt, and then tell their friends "I partied with Paris Hilton in Las Vegas". Why anyone would even care what this talentless spoiled brat drug addict criminal is doing is beyond me. They need to lock her up. How many of the others busted for cocaine posession in the past year were released in a couple hours without bail? Special treatment indeed. Throw her in general population with the various prostitutes, drug addicts and drunks and maybe even those 10 female gang members. That would wake her up in a hurry!
And for the record, she's not attractive in any way. Remember when "stars" had real class?
a controled substance and lip balm in here hand, If yant was still on the street, Paris would have more holes in her than a wiffle ball
That's hot.
Bakersfield, SO TRUE!
No special treatment? Ok then, demand the police department to swear under oath that Paris did not receive special treatment, that the majority of people caught with similar quantities of cocaine in their possession have been released without bond so quickly, and that anybody suspected of cocaine possession would be allowed to be questioned inside a nearby resort rather than on the street. The police should have no trouble whatsoever in swearing under threat of perjury that they are telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
But we all know that is a lie.
Charge the police department with wasting the taxpayers money. These charges will never stick, they know it. So why go through the expense of pretending that they might? End the investigation now, don't waste any time or money on this and let everybody go on with our lives. Paris Hilton is above the law. I know you. You know it. The police, the prosecutors and the judges know it. Paris lives it.
Good police work.
Among all the smells wafting on the Strip, Paris gets nabbed by one of our finest who used his acute olfactory receptors to distinguish between vehicular exhaust and pot.
Also, did driving a government made 2009 Cadillac Escalade partly trigger this traffic stop? Would circumstances differ if it had been a Ford Fusion or Toyota Avalon?
I believe Paris Hilton was setup by Steve Wynn...
Steve Wynn: Cy, I want you to drive down the strip with hoebag in your Caddy and light up a hooter with the window rolled down, which will be the signal for this cop a reason to pull you two over and take the fall for it.
Cy Waits: Huh, How come boss ?
Steve Wynn: So that you can help lure in all the stupid richie wannabe kids while packin in the club, free publicity man.
Silver eagle, that just might be true. Steve Wynn could used the pub. Lastly, Rush and Beck go to prove drinking and doping is not restricted to the left wing socially elite, it cuts across the spectrum.
She can't be too bright,if i was pulled over and had a bag of ya-yo on me,i'de swallow it or stick it down my pants before the cop got to my window.
"This time, the hotel heiress was with her boyfriend, Las Vegas nightclub mogul Cy Waits, who manages a club inside the Wynn"
why does everyone in this town perpetuate everyone in this town as being someone worth a sxxx!
so now a guy who is a manager at a nightclub is a "mogul" rofl what a joke
when the economy was better a 21 year old with any kind of tact and a smile could be a valet and take home 150,000
is he/she considered a "parking mogul"?
the posers in this town continue to amaze me,and now the local paper
the escalade is owned by wynn casino,and is used for VIP transfers/transportation
nightclub mogul! what a joke
peace out
The article calls Cy Waits and his brother Jesse managing partners.
What does that mean?
With Victor Drai being bought out, does that mean they have equity in the clubs?
If so, yes that could be (sorta) mogul status, if not, no.
I always thought they were managers, maybe with bonus's, etc. Who knows?
Columnist Norm refers to him having a top operations job with the Wynn.
Then he has whatever deal he has with Harrah's.
I don't wish him anything bad, it was just stupid to get in this situation.
Such is that club life, I guess.
life's a joke, a good one, huh, paris?
Because of the high profile indiscretion, odds are that Mr.Wynn will sever his ties with the young nightclub mogul.
Kinda strange so many people HATE her so much. Yes, she's a rich and talentless bimbo - but I would not waste so much energy hating her for that. Paris actually has a sweet personality - not found with 70% of D-bags of similar social, financial and demographic comparison!
What is noteworthy of this story - is this trifecta of pot incidents in as many months. There is no doubt this queen of lodging is a pothead - no big deal, but carrying that little "bump" in her Gucci is a serious indicator she might be well into a habitual lifestyle of more dangerous substances. Paris is pushing 30, so that means she has been doing this stuff for 12-15 years already - if you use the California scale of bad parenting.
You can't "party" with coke for such an extended period and not develop an addiction.
Bldblu: you said..."the escalade is owned by wynn casino,and is used for VIP transfers/transportation". No it's not a Wynn escalade. The keys are not just given out to employees and/or execs. Cy isnt allowed in a Wynn car anymore.
She is such an inspiration to our young people....
When are americans going to wake up to the stark truth.
"WE ARE NOT ALL CREATED EQUAL" and take back the government from the politicians?
Enough is enough: VOTE OUT every incumbent at the polls. Start fresh
Britney Spear's Mom : Where's Britney, she was just here ?
Jaime Spears : She's where the drugs are, Mom.

Lindsay Lohan's Mom : Where's Lindsey, she was just here a minute ago ?
Lindsay Lohan's Father : She's where the drugs are, of course.

Paris Hilton's Mom : Nicky, where did Paris take off to ?
Nicky Hilton : Where the drugs are.

See a pattern here ?
I still like the hell out of Paris though, least she isn't doing meth and stealing like a damn tweaker, but remember this: your body is your temple.
But yeah, now America is gonna know who Cy Waits is, as Wynn will score big time business wise on publicity here.
Who cares about this woman. Surely there are more important things to write about.
Every parents pride and joy... fake boobs and a cocaine charge.
I wonder what grandpa Hilton thinks about her dragging the Hilton name through the gutter?
As posted above:
Believe it or not, due to the overwhelming number of people taken to CCDC each night, simple possession of narcotics may be a "walk-thru" and if you do not have a violent history, you my qualify for being released "OR."
This is actually pretty standard, due to the capacity of CCDC and the amount of people booked there daily....
And yes, the guy booked for DUI is gonna be there a while longer, than a possession charge, there are mandatory hold times for DUI arrestees.
At CCDC if you are locked up for simple possession, there is NO NEED to get a lawyer involved to qualify for an OR release....
Yes it is a felony, but if you have no prior violent history, you may qualify for an OR, and could be released in a couple of hours if you are cooerative.
Weed smelling cops, what next? Dogs going through Las Vegas hotel rooms. Let's destroy the economy of Sin City more. This reminds me of a 60's bust.
If the cop smelled weed, where was the weed? My guess is that the cop saw Paris through the window and reconized her from her porno that he has in his collection. After pulling over the car, he then got to do a body search for "ahem" drugs and weapons. He was doing such a good job of body searching that he allowed Paris to get into her purse and remove her lip balm. After seeing the lip balm, the cop rushed her over to the wynn thinknig that she was going to bribe him. After checking room rates and his credit card were denied, he had no choice but to arrest her.If Cole and Scott looked like Paris, they would both be alive today and furtives moves would have been incouraged.
Is picture no.1 the cop who stopped Paris doing her body search for drugs and weapons.
Look at her smile in the picture. She knows she's going to beat the rap.
She is just a rich woman that no one cares about any more so she finally did something stupid again and it made news whoopie. This woman is old news and I forgot she existed until this news article. There are people missing and it don't make the news and this woman who is nothing to society takes up precious space in the news. What a world!
she's gotta be a member of the tea party, makes angle look smart,
Now she's claiming the purse wasn't hers.
Busy ditch. I sentence you to life without parole of zero media coverage.
Socialite and hotel heiress Paris Hilton cannot keep herself out from the headlines. We all know what she does best. She is a sheer professional in terms of being arrested for substances.
This arrest wasn't for DUI. Apparently she has learned the virtue of a DD or a cab, but not how to not having unlawful substances on her person. She got busted for possession of cocaine in Las Vegas. You've to be doing something fairly clear if that happens. This makes the 3rd time she has been arrested for drugs in the past year, having been twice arrested for possessing marijuana.
