Heidi Fleiss back in trouble
12:18 PM PT, Feb 8 2008
I have been trying to reach Heidi Fleiss this morning to get from her the details
of her arrest yesterday in Pahrump. According to the Review-Journal, Fleiss
was arrested for "driving under the influence and without a license." Also
arrested with her was a man she describes as her plumber.
Heidi Fleiss came here a couple of years ago with the wild ambition of opening a legal brothel stud farm for women. But so far she has wound up opening only a laundromat, Dirty Laundry, near the Wal-Mart in Pahrump. And her new life in Nevada has not been without controversy, including her claim in an interview with me that Mike Tyson was signing on to be stud No. 1. But outside some national media, no one familiar with Nevada's brothel system took seriously the thought that her stud farm would get Nye County approval. And if Fleiss hoped Dirty Laundry would establish her as a legitimate businesswoman in Nye County to help her secure a brothel license, the events of yesterday may prove a fatal setback for her dream.
The most serious problem for Fleiss stemming from the arrest may come from some pills found on the former Hollywood Madam. At this time, the pills are officially unidentified. But in an interview with the Review-Journal, Fleiss offered this amazing quote: "Big deal, I've got Vicodin without a prescription handy.... I make no apologies. If I want Vicodin, I'm having a Vicodin." She also told the Review-Journal that the blood test authorities took from her is likely to turn up some other "bad stuff" from a party at a girlfriend's house last week.

Her willingness to say almost anything is what makes Fleiss such a joy to
interview. Sadly, I am guessing one reason she is not answering the
phone today is that she has consulted a lawyer since yesterday.

So, does this mean that having sex with Heidi is now possible for $1.50 in quarters?
