Warrant out for suspect in Olympic drugging caseCops are on the hunt for James R. Halstead, the creep suspected of slipping the "date rape" drug in Olympic gold medal ice dancer Oksana "Pasha" Grishuk's drink during a business meeting at an O.C. hotel last month.

The shady insurance salesman faces one felony count of giving an unwitting Grishuk a "narcotic, anesthetic and intoxicating agent." This is not the first time Halstead has been in trouble with the law. The 61-year-old has been accused of defrauding investors out of millions of dollars.

And no, this guy is in no way affiliated with Tonya Harding -- that we know of.
