"CSI's" Gary Dourdan was busted in Palm Springs yesterday on suspicion of possessing heroin, cocaine, ecstasy and prescription drugs. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the actor was asleep in his car at 5:21 AM when they approached the vehicle and made the bust.
We're told Dourdan was taken to Palm Springs jail where he posted $5,000 and bailed out.

50. What...a...shock. Never would have seen this coming to a guy with such a wonderful reputation. Doesn't seem like the party type at all. Yeah, right.

52. Why would his career be over? There are plenty of working drug addicts in Hollyweird and the music industry. Heath himself gave at least one interview where he was clearly high as a kite and knocking on death's door. Drug addiction only ends a career if the addict can perform his job.

53. This could be why his contract is not being renewed....hmmm!! To bad, though, he is a hottie when he is not high.

60. This guy is one of my favorites on CSI. To bad this happens to so many stars. Of course, it happens frequently to common old Joe and Jane in the private sector too. They just aren't newsworthy!
