Girlicious Singer Arrested for Cocaine-Filled Purse

By PopEater Staff Posted Mar 11th 2010 11:58AM

Natalie Mejia, a member of pop group Girlicious, was arrested in a Los Angeles suburb on Tuesday night after police reportedly found more than a dozen plastic bags of cocaine in her Gucci purse.

KTLA reports that Mejia was stopped by police for speeding. After searching the car, police arrested and booked the singer on suspicion of possessing cocaine for sale. According to jail records, she spent the night in jail and was released on $30,000 bail.

Her driver, Peter Asencio, was also arrested, and it was later discovered that Asencio was driving with a suspended license.

Mejia is scheduled to appear in court on April 15.

Girlicious was founded by Pussycat Dolls creator Robin Antin, who featured the group on the CW's reality competition 'Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious.' Their songs include 'Stupid S***' and 'Baby Doll,' both released from their 2008 self-titled album.

She was not driving. The cops searched not only the car, but the "passenger's" personal property (ala purse), after stopping said car for speeding. This one's going to get thrown out of court.

Sorry, bright boy, but how do you know she didn't do something to arouse the officer's suspicion--you know, like try to hide her purse (could have had a weapon in it), or had that powdered sugar look on her face or clothes? How do you know she didn't (stupidly) consent to allowing the officer to look in her purse? Heck, you can get that much information just buy watching COPS.

scooter your wrong, check the law all they need is probable cause
personally i think they both should go directly to jail and meet bubba

How is speeding probable cause to search the purse of a woman that has a hired driver?
