Paris Hilton Up Against Highly Motivated Prosecutor on Cocaine Charges

[ChattahBox] – After her third brush with the law in three months for alleged drug possession, reports say reality ’star’ Paris Hilton may soon face reality head-on – in jail.

The 29-year old socialite is now facing a charge of ‘Felony: Drug possession’ that carries a prison sentence of 1-4 years. She’s also due to go head-to-head with the same high-profile DA who put O.J. Simpson in jail.

And he’s up for re-election.

Sources tell Radar that Las Vegas’ District Attorney, David Roger is unlikely to even offer a plea deal;

“This is a high profile case, right before an important election, and it’s very likely there will be no plea bargaining,” says one source. “David won’t tolerate celebrities thinking they can get away with illegal behavior, and it’s going to be extremely difficult for Paris to get out of these charges.”

Paris claimed the purse she was carrying, in which cops found 0.8 grams of cocaine, did not belong to her. But she said some items in the purse [cash, credit cards and a broken tablet of the prescription Asthma drug 'Albuterol'] did.

Arresting officer Lt. Dennis Flynn, said a small plastic vial of cocaine fell out of the purse when Paris reached for some lip balm. And Hilton is taking this ‘very seriously,’ according to friends.

“Paris is adamant the cocaine wasn’t hers,” claims one. “She says she borrowed the bag from a girlfriend because the one she had didn’t match her outfit.”

But another supposed longtime pal, claims via IUC, that Paris had hidden her real stash inside her vagina.

“That’s why the first thing she asked the cops was to use the bathroom,” the source told reporters. “She knew it would be her only chance to avoid arrest. Paris is not as dumb as she seems; She’s one of the most manipulative people you could ever meet, and she thinks quick.”

The friend also claims this would not be the first time Hilton has exploited biology to avoid detection. She allegedly tricked
airport security at least once by stashing the drugs in a condom, then inserting them before checking in.

“She’s a pro at it,” the insider claims. “I love her, but she needs professional help. It’s time she looked at herself in the mirror and realized she’s not 21 anymore.”

In this latest event, Hilton’s boyfriend, Cy Waits, 34, was also arrested. He was driving the black Cadillac Escalade in which Lieutenant Flynn reported smelling marijuana smoke, and was promptly arrested after failing a sobriety test.

Anti-Obama Billboard Owners Angered by ‘Orwellian Attack’ on Freedoms

(ChattahBox Political News)— Steve Critchfield and Bob Huels are a couple of conservative guys struggling to make a living in the Ozarks under what they view, as a “quasi-socialistic” federal government that’s led by an “anti-business, anti-capitalism president.” And worse, after the near collapse of our economy two-years ago, this socialistic President Obama championed and signed a Wall Street reform bill into law, to ensure that greedy Wall Street profiteers would never again, gamble away the life savings of Americans. Well that was the last straw for Critchfield and Huels. They view Wall Street reform as a “governmental takeover” and an “Orwellian attack” on their freedoms. Do you socialists see the words Wall Street reform anywhere in the Constitution? Well, do you? What about the word ObamaCare?

Well, these two patriots weren’t about to take this Communism stuff lying down. So, they put up a giant, massive anti-Obama billboard on Highway 65. It’s what all the cool right-wing kids do now. Read more »
