Fleiss pleads guilty to drug charges
Ex-Hollywood madam faces probation in Nye County incident
By HENRY BREAN
Heidi Fleiss pleaded guilty to felony drug charges in Pahrump on Tuesday, but the former Hollywood madam will avoid a return trip to prison.
Nye County District Attorney Bob Beckett said Fleiss faces probation but no jail time after pleading guilty to unlawful use of methamphetamine and possession of the painkiller hydrocodone without a prescription.
The charges stem from a Feb. 7, 2008, traffic stop outside a plumbing supply store where Fleiss had gone to buy items for her home in Pahrump.
She was found in possession of six hydrocodone pills for which she had no prescription. A blood test taken after her arrest showed methamphetamine in her system.
She faces three to five years’ probation. Sentencing is scheduled for Sept. 15.
Beckett said Fleiss probably will be required to submit to random drug tests and might be ordered to seek drug treatment. If she successfully completes the terms of her probation, the two felony convictions will be erased from her record, he said.
“Time will tell if she’s serious about turning her life around,” Beckett said.
