Cameron Douglas Faces Hard Time Following Meth Bust

By PopEater Staff Posted Aug 8th 2009 10:27AM

The son of 'Traffic' star Michael Douglas could spend the rest of his life in prison for selling and transporting methamphetamine over a three-year period, court records show.

Cameron Douglas, 30, was arrested during a DEA drug bust on July 28 and is accused of FedEx-ing the drug also known as "crystal meth" and "Ice" from California to New York between 2006 and 2009. He faces a minimum 10-year sentence and a maximum of life.

He worked with accomplices who are now cooperating with authorities, the complaint obtained by Reuters and AP said.

In several different recorded phone calls Douglas referred to the drugs as "pastry" and "salts."

The next court date has not been announced.

This isn't his first brush with the law. He also was arrested in California in 2007 on cocaine possession charges. His attorney then said the arresting officer didn't do his job properly.

Douglas has acted in movies including 2003's 'It Runs in the Family,' starring his father and grandfather, Kirk Douglas, but his Hollywood career has sputtered since then.

According to his IMDB page, Douglas' next project was supposed to be 'The Beautiful Outsiders,' a film in pre-production also starring Corey Feldman and Shannen Doherty. He has reportedly been fired from the film.

Michael Douglas has not commented on the arrest.

Good Grief Michael! THIS is what you were supposed to get right for pete's sake. This is the victim of your divorce from his mother and your focus on your new woman and children. There is nothing worse than neglect no matter how much money you have. Didn't your father do this to you? Shame on you Michael and shame on your son.

Because of his father and family, he will not get alot of time or he will get off, if he goes to jail he will be sent to a special place in california so he can be by his family, if he was anyone else he would be seeing his last days of freedom and good food.
I think if you are california movie workers, because none of them are stars in my book,most think they are better then anyone else, you can get your way out of trouble,
