Probation Has A Silver Lining

Former Hollywood star, Heidi Fleiss, was sentenced in Pahrump to three years of probation. She was ordered to give up drugs, alcohol, and gambling, complete a drug seminar, and submit to random testing for narcotics and alcohol. She completed drug treatment on her own as a cast member on VH-1's reality show, "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew".
Fleiss said she shouldn't have any trouble living up to the terms of her probation as she has to stay off of drugs for the rest of her life, so three years is no problem. In July, she pleased guilty to use of methamphetamine and possession of Hydrocodone without a prescription. It started from a 2008 traffic stop where she was found in possession of six Hydrocodone pills and after a blood test, methamphetamine was shown in her system. From then, she was banned from gambling because her probation report showed it might fuel her addictions.

The only problem Fleiss has with her probation is that she has to get permission to leave the state. She has many pending issues to sort out but if she makes it through her three years of probation without any violations, the felony convictions will be removed from her record.
