Heidi pleads on drug charges

2009-07-10 09:13

Pahrump - Former "Hollywood Madam" Heidi Fleiss has pleaded guilty to felony drug charges in Nevada, but will avoid a trip to prison.

Nye County District Attorney Bob Beckett says Fleiss faces up to five years' probation after pleading guilty on Tuesday to unlawful use of methamphetamine and possession of the painkiller hydrocodone without a prescription.

Fleiss declined comment to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which reported the case. Sentencing is scheduled for September 15.

The charges stem from a February 2008 traffic stop in rural Pahrump, which is 96km west of Las Vegas.

Beckett says if the 43-year-old Fleiss successfully completes probation, the two felony convictions will be erased from her record.

Fleiss moved to Nevada after serving prison time in California for running a prostitution ring.

Peter says... This is an open challenge for the two major political parties. Having elections this year before attaining what the parties have agreed is somehow a none starter and the rest of the world is looking forward to what has been put down in the Zimbabwe Government Unity for the best way forward before elections. If ZANU-PF is to force elections this year then they will have to resort to violence-intimidating and beating people so that they vote for them. History will have to repeat itself just as what happened in the 2008 elections. Without that there is no way ZANU-PF can win a free and fair elections. On the other hand Tsvangirai's Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) should not be seen to pull out of this unit till victory is certain. Let us wait and see who is going to be a coward.
