Tatum O'Neal was popped by the NYPD for allegedly scoring crack and coke last night.
The NYPD tells us that O'Neal was allegedly "observed" buying crack and coke on the Lower East Side near her apartment.
She was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance and held at the Seventh Precinct downtown. We're told that she's waiting to see the judge for arraignment.
Her rep couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

What an abuse of the legal system. This misfortunate soul should be in a clinic awaiting treatment.

put her in a treatment center, and ask that she move out of that neighborhood on the lower east side, even though you can probably buy it in the Hamptons, or in the nice part of the city.

She should look into this new treatment in Isreal with a Dri Andre Waismann. He is at the Barzilai Medical Centre in Ashkelon. He does BRAIN SURGERY for opiate dependency and has successfully cured 4000 patients. It's incredible and new breakthru treatment to save addicts lives! The cost is around $12,000. I read about it in a mag. in England. I ripped out the article to share with friends........these days it seems we all know or have lost someone to a drug addiction.

Crack is wack and it seem like it's has a hold on Tatum. She has almost been abusing drug for 20 years. This can't end well.

I feel for her also but...we do need to restock for next season's Celebrity Rehab. Including what I am sure will be a couple of retreads from last season, who else do you think will make the roster?
