Celebrity Justice
Pesci -- I Have Friends in High Places!

Posted Feb 5th 2009 1:20PM by TMZ Staff

Joe PesciJoe Pesci has pull -- so he says, after telling L.A. County Sheriff's deputies he was calling their boss on them after getting a ticket.

It happened Tuesday at 9:30 PM in West Hollywood. Pesci stopped his car in a red zone and, with the motor running, allegedly flicked a cigarette out the window. Deputies cited Mr. Yutes for impeding traffic and throwing a cig out of a car.

Joe was none too pleased and law enforcement sources tell us he got on his phone, and then told officers he had just called Sheriff Lee Baca himself and that Baca would take care of it for him. We're guessin' he was bluffing.

P.S. -- He got the ticket.

2. So....Pesci should be able to park wherever he wants, then litter and be able to get way with it? The cop should have just cowered and not done his job? I love him on the screen, but Pesci is an a-hole in person

6. I met Joe back in 2003. We went to a motel and did some blow. He smoked non-stop and drank for like 15 hours! Every other word was f***. When he wanted to go to bed, he couldn't get it up. He had the teeniest little wanker I ever saw! When he finally fell asleep, I booked it the hell out of there! True story!

12. The reason he thought Baca would fix it is because Baca has been all about the celebrity justice

13. toofastforyou - get a life, man. It is really scary that you just wait around for a pathetic website to update its stories. You freak. Why don't you get a facebook page or something? Therapy might help you.
