Fear And Loathing In Palm Springs With Former 'CSI' Star Gary Dourdan

As we write this, recent CSI casualty Gary Dourdan is likely recovering from an even gnarlier Coachella hangover than most: TMZ reports the actor was discovered by Palm Springs police asleep in his car at 5:21 a.m., upon which he was arrested on "suspicion of possession of heroin, cocaine, ecstasy and prescription drugs," otherwise known as the bare minimum required to make a Jack Johnson set seem remotely exciting.

that's a pretty pixelated mugshot - did his flashlight throw off the light meter?

could've been worse for gary, could've been found in nyc outside a strip club by nypd and shot 50 or more times.

@Lulamaybelle:

Tyra would be proud. He's selling sexy with his eyes, and not with the booty-tooch.
