Celebrity Justice
Zed's Busted, Baby

Posted Jul 26th 2007 11:45AM by TMZ Staff

Peter GreeneBring out the cuffs: Peter Greene, the actor who so memorably rogered Ving Rhames in "Pulp Fiction," got popped Monday in New York for allegedly buying crack -- in broad daylight!

Sources tell TMZ that Greene was "observed" buying two bags of crack cocaine in a hand-to-hand deal in Manhattan's Alphabet City around 5:50 PM on Tuesday. What's more, the arrest report says that a police officer recovered "two plastic bags ... from defendant's front jeans pocket." Greene was arraigned, spent Tuesday night in jail, and plead guilty to criminal possession yesterday. Today, he's a free man, having been sentenced to time served.

Apart from Zed, Greene also played Redfoot in "The Usual Suspects" and a corrupt narcotics officer in "Training Day." His arrest was first reported by the New York Daily News.

9. I have read for years about what a talented man he is but that his demons and addiction to drugs has almost killed him many times.
He is talented, but maybe if these people he works for would have refused him work because of his addictions that were and are so profound and obious to the eye maybe he might have had a chance to clean up
Instead they continue to work with him and bankroll his drug addiction
So I guess what I am saying here is that Holloywood and all their ilk are enableing him to continue.
So sad.
How many others like him that we don't know about are in the same situation>
Minus those idiots we have all become familiar with, the blonde troika of Paris, Britney and LL
