The socialite could face up to four years in jail after police found 0.8g of cocaine in her purse when they pulled over a car she was travelling in.
So how did the heiress try to wangle her way out of this little mess? Well, after asking the officer to let her go to the toilet, where she was probably hoping to ditch the evidence, the cop revealed:
“Hilton said she needed to put some lip balm on and I handed her the purse. As she began to open it, I saw what I believed to be cocaine in a clear baggy begin to fall from the purse and into my hand. She told me the purse was not hers, that she borrowed it from a friend” - Ah, that old chestnut, ‘it’s not mine, I was just looking after it for a friend!’ Sheesh, come on Paris surely you can do better then that.
But the airhead heiress quickly changed her tune and has since admitted the purse was hers, but now claims she’s was setup and source claims she’s been telling pals:
“I had no idea the cocaine was there. I swear on my life. It could be a setup. Everyone knows how against cocaine I am.”
Does anyone actually believe her? Nah, didn’t think so.
