![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
He's free on bail in Nevada, but pimpresario Joe Francis is voluntarily keeping himself behind bars in a Reno jail -- so he won't have to face another round of charges in Florida.
Francis' lawyer, David Houston, tells TMZ that the "Girls Gone Wild" ogler-in-chief is veering between "elated" and "disappointed" as he sits in a cell in the Washoe County Detention Center in Reno, Nev. That's because a judge in Bay County, Fla., where Francis faces charges of sexual performance with a minor (among other things), revoked Joe's bail at a hearing yesterday afternoon -- meaning that if he sets foot outside his current jail, he'll be picked up by Nevada cops -- who would probably then extradite him down south. On Monday, a federal judge in Reno set his bail at $1.5 million in his tax evasion case, meaning that he could've walked, were it not for Florida.
This means that at least until late July, Francis will have to hang out at the jail -- where unlike his pal Paris Hilton in L.A., he's been getting special treatment because he's not a typical inmate. We're told that Francis gets liberal phone privileges and that he "does very well" among the "general population."
Still, Francis probably better get used to his new pals. Even if things go well for him in his Nevada case, he'll still have to deal with Florida afterwards -- and it could be a very long while before he gets back to the comforts of home.

He will end up being one of those gross bear-hairy ultra fake-bake tanned swinger-pervs with over plucked eyebrows and a really bad face lift who mows his lawn in his lawn in his thong speedo and put ads in the adult entertainer magazines for 'auditions' in his San Fernando Condo
You would think with as much $$$ this turkey has he would have already figured out a way to exit the good old U-S-of A. Surely one of the Nevada police can be bought?
But then guess it is time to pay the piper there dude.
i love this story! lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
he is such a CREEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I suspect that he will spend years in federal prision for the tax evasion, and then be in prison in Florida for the perv charges! Let's hope!

CAn somebody please tell men in hollywood that they look stupid when they wax their eyebrows? Joe, do you REALLY want to look like Joan Crawford?
He's been getting special treatment because he's not a typical inmate?...sent his ass back to the south...we have something very special planned for men that mess with little girls...*S*
Can't get horribly torqued out about anything that happens to Joe. The GGW stuff is sol lame and redundant anyway.
There are amateurs posting more exciting stuff on the internet than he does. Joe is not even 5 minutes ago, more like yesterdays news.
This is one toxic, stupid guy with money. Does this man have any or even just one attorney???? And if he has, do this so-called attorney have a criminal law degree or tax law degree, or any rapport/connections with the courts??? Joe, if you have an attorney, FIRE HIS A**. If you dont, HIRE A COMPETENT ATTORNEY fool!!!!
What the hell. How can Nevada be paying the keep his ass in jail. Are they crazy??
Obviously it was tougher for him in Florida than Nevada and he's using the system.
chess is fun...donate $585 dollars to chess in prison, thank you
