Douglas girlfriend pleaded guilty of drug charges

Cameron Douglas' girlfriend has
pled guilty to possessing
methamphetamine, six months
after she was arrested on
suspicion of smuggling drugs to
the troubled actor.
Kelly Sott, 31, was taken into
police custody in August after
she was caught attempting to
hand over the drugs, hidden in
an electric toothbrush, to
Michael Douglas' 32-year-old
son while he was under house
arrest at his mother Diandra
Douglas' New York apartment.
Security guards subsequently
searched Sott's bag and found
the toothbrush and 19 tiny
bags containing a brownish
substance that appeared to be
heroin.
Sott, who claims she was
unaware of the drugs, was
then taken back to the room
she had shared with Douglas at
Manhattan's Hotel Gansevoort,
where police discovered a stash
of heroin, crystal meth and
marijuana.
On Monday (22Feb10), Sott pled
guilty to a misdemeanour
charge of possessing
methamphetamine, which
carries a maximum one year
prison sentence, reports
TMZ.com.
Douglas was busted in a drugs
raid at the Hotel Gansevoort on
3 August and was charged with
possessing methamphetamines
with intent to distribute.
Reports suggest the It Runs In
The Family star had been
plotting to move approximately
$$18,000 (£12,000)-worth of
crystal meth from California to
New York to sell when an
undercover informant alerted
the U.s. Drug Enforcement
Administration of Douglas'
involvement.
Douglas pled guilty to drug
trafficking last month (Jan10)
and faces a minimum 10-year
prison sentence if convicted.
