Paris Hilton
is at the center of a Maryland police
investigation after information leaked to the
authorities claims she has allegedly offered
teenagers drugs and alcohol. Baltimore Police
officials have confirmed they're taking the
reports very seriously, adding Hilton could face
a hefty fine and jail time if she's found
guilty. The allegations stem from an episode of
reality show The Simple Life: Interns,
when Hilton reportedly offered teens marijuana
and bourbon to "loosen them up" for a taped
segment. One of the teens involved has told
police, "She loaded myself and two other
underage kids on shots of Jack Daniels to loosen
us up for the show." Baltimore Police Detective
Chris Schaeffer tells US tabloid the National
Enquirer, "These are serious allegations. We
will certainly be investigating them." A
spokesman for 20th Century Fox - the company
behind The Simple Life - insists the
allegations are false: "Paris would never
endanger the welfare of a minor."
