Drug dealing and conviction
Drug dealing and conviction
In 2007, he was charged with felony possession of a controlled substance after police officers found a syringe with liquid cocaine in a car he was in. On July 28, 2009, aged 30, Douglas was arrested by the Drug Enforcement Administration for possession of 8 ounces of methamphetamine. Due to the large amount of the drug seized, Douglas was charged with intent to distribute. The charge carries a minimum prison sentence of 10 years and a maximum of life. On January 27, 2010, aged 31, Douglas pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute drugs and heroin possession after his girlfriend had smuggled heroin hidden inside an electric toothbrush and passed it on to him while he was under house arrest. On April 20, 2010, Douglas was sentenced to five years in prison for possessing heroin and dealing large amounts of methamphetamine and cocaine out of a New York hotel room. Michael Douglas publicly assumed blame for "being a bad father" but said that without prison intervention, Cameron "was going to be dead or somebody was gonna kill him. I think he has a chance to start a new life, and he knows that." In October 2011, aged 32, Douglas pleaded guilty to possessing drugs in prison. In December 2012, his leg was broken by another inmate. On April 15, 2013, when he was 34, his extended prison sentence was affirmed by the Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The Supreme Court denied his final appeal on January 13, 2014, one month after his 35th birthday.
