    Paris Hilton ex-beau seeks plea in Vegas drug case

    LAS VEGAS (AP) — Paris Hilton's ex-boyfriend has a court date Wednesday to take a plea deal to settle criminal drug charges stemming from a Las Vegas Strip traffic stop with the celebrity socialite last year.

    Cy Waits, 35, a former Las Vegas nightclub manager, didn't appear in court Monday while his lawyer, Richard Schonfeld told Las Vegas Justice of the Peace Bill Kephart that an agreement had been reached in the case.

    Schonfeld didn't provide details. He said outside court he couldn't disclose terms ahead of time. Prosecutor L.J. O'Neale wasn't immediately available for comment.

    Waits could face up to four years in state prison if convicted of a felony charge of being under the influence of a controlled substance, and less than a year in the Clark County jail in Las Vegas on misdemeanor marijuana possession and driving under the influence charges.

    Waits was arrested Aug. 27, 2010, after a police officer reported seeing and smelling a "vapor trail" of marijuana smoke wafting from a black Cadillac Escalade with Waits at the wheel.

    Hilton, a passenger in the vehicle, was arrested after police said a small bag containing 0.8 gram of cocaine fell from her Chanel purse as she reached for a tube of lip balm.

    Hilton, 30, pleaded guilty last September to misdemeanor cocaine possession and obstruction charges. She is serving a year of probation.

      Waits is a spoiled rich kid. Hope he is jailed for what he did.
      Anybody else would be.

      Rich people with rich people problems! I wonder if those problems are as bad as people who can't milk for their kids or don't have money to pay rent. Now, that's a REAL problem but nobody wants to know that! We only want to know about Rich People who bought a new car or broke a nail! Boo-hoo.

      Cy Watts or Paris Hilton is no better than anyone else, let some smuck get caught under the influence of Drigs and they go to Jail or Prison. Would bet the Media will be reporting soon that charges are dropped by the District Attorney in Las Vegas. Besides it is reported Cy Watts is an ex night club manager, do night club manager make big big bucks and it also entiltles them to be known as Celebrities........ I agree if Paris Hilton is on Probation in Las Vegas, how does she get to fly all over the World, guess they don't consider her a flight risk. Just thinking out loud LOL

      Her breasts are starting to sag. She's not "hot" anymore.

      What kind of probation allows you to fly out of the country? I just read a story a couple of days ago that Paris lost her cell phone on a plane landing in Manilla. She's there to open up some new business idea she has.

      I heard Paris would be the guest celebrity judge at his trial. She wants hi to get on his knees, crawl the length of the courtroom and beg for mercy, all this while she whips him with a bullwhip.

      Yet it's perfectly legal to kill ourselves and those around us with alcohol and cigarettes. What a total scam and Bass Ackwards society we live in. Can't stand the smell of pot and never touch the stuff but it's a hell of a lot better health wise than most of the deadly sugar, preservatives and salt saturated stuff you pass everyday on supermarket shelves.
      Name one other thing that has health benefits such as helping with glaucoma and chronic pain.

        A felony for being under the influence of Marijuana? That's ridiculous. Meanwhile Casey Anthony walks free.

      Celebs on probation. Are we sending the right message here?
    • Harry  •  9 mths ago
      Why are these dirtbags on probation? They are the cause of 40,000 dead people in Mexico. Put some #$%$ teeth into the law. How about a little probation and rehab out in the Eastern Nevada desert where they can freeze in the winter and fight rattlesnakes in the summer. Put Arizona Joe in charge. I am sure he can help them with their rehab.

        end the drug war, it is the government who causes these deaths not the users
      • OldSoul 9 mths ago
        The Mexican Drug Cartel is the reason for the dead in Mexico you idiot. You can't just point the finger of blame at anyone. Why don't you and your life partner Arizona Joe take a HIKE!
