The Las Vegas Police Department have released few details about the case but a police official told CNN Hilton was riding in a black Cadillac near the Wynn Hotel when police smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle and pulled it over. Both Hilton and the driver were arrested.

Hilton has since been released and there are no details on her pending court appearance to face charges.

Update:

Sunday, August 29, 2010. 10 a.m.

In a statement to RadarOnline.com on Saturday, Paris Hilton’s attorney David Chesnoff says, “Paris Hilton was released this morning on her own recognizance. This matter will be dealt with in the courts not in the media and I encourage people not to rush to judgment until all of the facts have been dealt with in a court of law. There will be no interviews and no more comments at this time.”

Meanwhile, reports are also surfacing that Vegas police did not follow standard procedure during the arrest.

Paris was taken into the security offices at the Wynn and searched there, a source has told media outlets. “Cops discovered the cocaine inside the security offices where Paris was taken. Because Paris was taken away from the scene where the car was pulled over, this could potentially be an illegal search of a person.

Since the release of the fifth tape revealing Mel Gibson’s mad rants and threats against his former girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, his team have gone into overdrive to present Mel as an up-standing citizen and fine husband and father to his multitude of kids.

They have found audio experts to state that the tapes have been “tampered” with even after various top experts for the CIA and the FBI have analyzed the tapes and conformed their authenticity.

They have also convinced Mel’s ex wife, Robyn Gibson to write a letter to the court to state that “Mel never engaged in any physical abuse of any kind toward me before, during or after our marriage.” Robyn also claims that there was never any domestic violence perpetrated by Mel against any of their children.

Wonder if the fact that Mrs. Gibson is due to receive upwards of $450 MILLION dollars from her divorce from the insane actor have anything to do with her stepping up to save his reputation. Nah. It couldn’t be.

Gibson’s lawyers say he was set up but there is a ton evidence to indicate the opposite.  Oksana’s teeth were knocked out, there is a bruise on their baby’s chin, allegedly from when Mel hit Oksana while she was holding the child. Oksana’s son is also reported to have witnessed the verbal abuse of his mother.

Next they will claim Gibson’s traffic stop and subsequent anti-semitic rant to a Malibu police officer was also a set up.

Poor Mel. The world is out to get him. Him and OJ Simpson. Both victims.

Please! Someone from Gibson’s camp get this abusive, angry old man some help before he hurts someone, or even worse, kills someone or maybe self destructs from the venom brewing inside him. Compared to him, Lindsay Lohan is Mother Terresa.

One thing for sure. We will be hearing a LOT more about Gibson in the coming months.

Sutherland will be charged with third-degree assault for the attack on designer Jack McCollough, sources said.

The actor will be issued a desk appearance ticket for the misdemeanor - meaning he won’t be jailed and will be free to travel before he’s arraigned.

Sutherland slammed his head into McCollough’s at a SoHo nightspot - felt bad about the bizarre display according to a friend.

“Kiefer is sorry it happened. Absolutely. It’s terribly regrettable,” the friend said.

Still, the friend insisted Sutherland lashed out because McCollough, a designer for Proenza Schouler, bumped into actress Brooke Shields and didn’t apologize. “Kiefer was provoked,” the friend said.

Another source at the party meanwhile said Sutherland ”way overreacted” when McCollough bumped into Shields ”clearly by accident” while she was chatting with Sutherland.

A source at the post-gala party who witnessed the altercation claims ”it happened in a flash. Suddenly there was all this yelling and cursing and Jack’s face was all bloody.

”Kiefer really looked like he was in a daze of some kind.”

The designer reportedly was rushed to a New York hospital, suffering from a broken nose. He was released Tuesday after being kept in the hospital overnight for observation.

McCollough’s publicist called Sutherland’s actions a ”vicious, violent, unprovoked assault” on the designer. ”Anyone who knows Jack McCollough knows that he wouldn’t hurt a fly.”

The actor, who co-starred with Shields in the 1996 film ”Freeway,” is currently on probation in Los Angeles on a DUI charge. The L.A. authorities have yet to comment on what, if any, action they will take in light of the Monday night incident.

McCollough’s people are not saying if the designer will be filing a lawsuit against Sutherland.

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge had given Polanski till this Thursday before he would consider whether to dismiss the case based on prosecutorial misconduct in a case that began in 1977 with Polanski’s conviction of having sex with a 13 year old girl.

In a court document, Polanski’s lawyer claimed that the director’s presence in court was irrelevant as to whether his constitutional rights were violated at his trial.

Polanski fled to France prior to his sentencing in the 1977 case.

The Motion Picture Association of America originally gave the film the dreaded NC-17 rating forcing the filmmakers to cut scenes and make Bruno more palatable for the masses.

After seeing the latest cut, the ratings board reversed it’s decision and gave Bruno an R for “pervasive strong and crude sexual content, graphic nudity and language.”

Meanwhile the poster for the movie has recently been released, and you can catch the trailer at:  http://www.thebrunomovie.com

Polanski’s efforts to clear his name and conviction status was sparked by an HBO documentary film, “Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired,” which disclosed new information about actions by the now deceased judge who presided over his case, a scenario which his lawyers say amounted to misconduct.

The central issue in Tuesday’s definitive hearing will not be the allegations of misconduct but rather the question of whether Polanski’s case can be heard without his presence.

Polanski, who pleaded guilty to having unlawful sexual intercourse with a 13-year-old girl, fled into exile in France in 1977.

He had spent 42 days in prison in what his lawyers believed was his full sentence under a plea bargain. A decision by the now deceased judge to add more prison time and require his voluntary deportation prompted him to leave the country.

The documentary on the case suggests behind-the-scenes manipulations which the defense claims amounted to judicial misconduct.

Polanski, now 75, lives in France where his film career has continued to flourish.
