Cameron Douglas, the son of actor Michael Douglas, apparently has a drug problem. It’s so pronounced, in fact, that his girlfriend, Kelly Sott, was arrested as she attempted to smuggle drugs to him. Sott was caught by court-appointed security guards passing an electric toothbrush to the younger Douglas, where he was under house arrest in his apartment in Manhattan. Inside the toothbrush were small bags of a substance that appeared to be heroin, according to criminal complaints.
Douglas had been arrested in July after an undercover police officer was alleged to have discovered 8 ounces of crystal meth on Douglas. Now, officials are accusing Douglas of running a veritable drug empire, alleging that he is selling large amounts of methamphetamine, delivering between the coasts from New York to Los Angeles. It has been alleged that Douglas delivers drugs in person or, in some instances, via FedEx from a hotel room in California.
After further analysis, a lab confirmed that the substance in the electric toothbrush passed to Douglas was, in fact, heroin, though Sott claims that "she was not aware of the contents of the toothbrush that she delivered." Sott was staying at a relative’s apartment in Manhattan when Douglas called her to deliver some items to him. Investigators, however, also discovered drug paraphernalia in the hotel room that Sott also had reserved, in the same hotel as Douglas. Cameron Douglas, when not allegedly dealing drugs, also does some acting, including a part in the 2003 film "It Runs in the Family," which also starred his father Michael and his grandfather, Kirk.
