44100, LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - August 24, 2010. Booking photo of Paris Hilton, who was arrested late Friday night in Las Vegas on possession of cocaine. According to police, Paris was the passenger in a vehicle that was pulled over by police just outside the Wynn Hotel. The driver was arrested for DUI (drug-related, not alcohol) and after conducting a search of the car and Hilton, they found her in possession of a controlled substance. According to Police, tests revealed the substance to be cocaine. The hotel heiress was arrested and released on her own recognizance. Paris' boyfriend, Cy Waits, was also arrested and booked on a charge of DUI.

Paris Hilton just doesn’t have the sociopathy necessary to keep up the coked-up legal drama of an arrest. If Lindsay Lohan had been arrested on felony cocaine possession in Las Vegas, we would be getting breezy daily comments by Dina Lohan and the incessant crack drama of Lindsay telling the world that none of it was her fault and that she will fight the charges indefinitely. Paris went for the lesser drama. According to E! News, Paris has accepted a plea deal offered by the Las Vegas DA in which she’ll plead guilty to misdemeanor drug possession and “obstructing an officer” – and her sentence will be a year of probation, a suspended sentence, a fine, completion of a drug abuse program, and 200 hours of community service. Well… good for Paris?

C’est la vie, Paris Hilton. The recently busted heiress has accepted a plea deal, agreeing to cop to misdemeanor drug possession and obstructing an officer in order to avoid a felony cocaine rap. Look who’s getting smarter by the minute…

Hilton will enter her guilty plea Monday and be sentenced to a year of probation, Clark County District Attorney David Roger said Friday.

The plea agreement also entails that she complete a drug abuse program, pay a $2,000 fine and serve 200 hours of community service.

In return, two consecutive six-month sentences in the Clark County Detention Center will be suspended. Interestingly, a felony cocaine-possession conviction carried mandatory probation, not jail time.

“We fashioned a resolution which would give us complete control over her future,” Roger told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “If she does not toe the line and stay out of trouble, she will do one year in the Clark County Detention Center.”

Hilton was arrested Aug. 27 in Las Vegas following a traffic stop outside the Wynn hotel after boyfriend Cy Waits failed a field sobriety test and officers started asking questions. She reached for a lip gloss, .08 grams of coke fell out of her purse, yada yada yada…

FYI, the obstruction charge was recently tacked on, added because authorities determined that Hilton was lying when she told officers her bag belonged to someone else.

“In truth, the Defendant purchased the Chanel handbag months earlier,” the complaint states.

Waits was arrested for misdemeanor DUI and is due in court Nov. 29.

Meanwhile, with jail off the table, Paris has booked a trip to Asia!

Hilton’s rep announced this morning that the Jill of all trades will be holding fashion shows in Tokyo, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur next week and visiting her seven boutiques, including a new one opening in Jakarta’s Grand Indonesia Mall.

Poor Asia. Anyway, regarding Paris’s sentence… I’m disappointed. I really was hoping for jail time, but I guess I should have predited this, considering everything about Paris’s arrest screamed special treatment. I do, however, appreciate that Paris has to admit that the cokepurse was hers. Small justice, I know. Sigh… to be rich, famous, talentless and entitled. Must be nice.

The couple, who have attracted bad publicity since they started dating, seemed happier than ever whilst browsing for artwork and jewelry. Paris was seen sporting a long leopard print maxi dress while Cy was showing his buff bod in a black tank. The pair seemed oblivious to pending charges for both DUI and felony cocaine possession and it business as usual for Paris who was seen posing for pictures with fans.
