Paris Hilton Barred From Wynn Resorts, Boyfriend Fired

09/01/10-by Bridgette P. LaVictoire
Paris Hilton is now persona non grata at the Wynn Resorts on the Las Vegas Strip. Her recent arrest for cocaine possession appears to have had her barred from the resorts, and making matters worse, her boyfriend Cy Waits was given the boot from his job as a managing partner at the Tryst Nightclub at Wynn and XS The Nightclub at Encore according to Wynn Resorts Ltd. spokeswoman Jennifer Dunn. Currently, neither Hilton’s people nor Waits have a comment on this.

The move by Wynn Resorts comes after Waits was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs, specifically marijuana, and Hilton was arrested on felony cocaine possession charges. So far, formal charges have not been filed. Some allegations have surfaced that Hilton was trying to hide the baggy of cocaine powder inside her vagina or flush it on a trip to the bathroom, but that trip to the bathroom was delayed while a female officer was called to the scene. The baggy fell out of her purse when she went for some lip balm.

The two were pulled over because they were leaving a rather wide trail of marijuana smoke behind them as they drove along. A suspected butt of a marijuana cigarette was found in the Cadillac Escalade in which the couple was stopped in front of the Wynn Las Vegas.

Hilton will be arraigned on 27 October for possession of the baggy that contained 0.8 grams of cocaine. She faces probation if convicted.

Waits was driving the car when they were pulled over, and police report that he had bloodshot eyes and smelled of alcohol. He failed a balance and walk-and-turn field sobriety test. His attorney, Richard Schonfeld, did say that Waits passed an eye test checking on dilation of his pupils, and that he was concerned that Waits was pulled over without any indication that he was driving impaired or that he had made a traffic infraction. Blood was drawn at the time of his arrest, but results will not be released until the case goes to court. Waits was held overnight before being freed on $2,000 bail.
