Celebrity Justice
Scott Storch Busted for Alleged Bentley Theft

Posted Apr 15th 2009 11:39AM by TMZ Staff

Scott StorchThis one flew under the radar screen for months, but we just learned Scott Storch -- formerly a wildly wealthy music producer for the likes of Dr. Dre and 50 Cent -- has been charged with grand theft auto.

Storch allegedly leased a Bentley but never returned it after the expiration date. It took the leasing company 7 months to find it.

Storch pled not guilty in Broward County Court last Friday.

Fun Fact: Lil Kim had a Bentley repossessed back in '08 -- which just happened to be a gift from none other than Storch himself. We don't know if it's the same Bentley.

UPDATE: Storch's lawyer, Bradford M. Cohen, just released this statement: "We are disappointed in the decision to take a civil dispute and file it as a criminal charge. There are many facts, that when revealed, will clearly demonstrate that there was no criminal wrong doing on behalf of my client."

28. To number 26, Explanation: Because he never surrendered the car upon the leasing company's request, probably due to non-payment. It isn't any different than if he had gone to Avis and kept the rental car, is considered auto theft.

And, to everyone, I'm with you on the "haha!" I don't like seeing people down on their luck, but this guy came across as the pure definition of douche. Not many ways around it. I mean, without whipping out my latest issue of "How to spot a douche in 10 seconds or less," I think anyone who runs around wearing sunglasses at night while telling people how much his stuff cost (1, when they didn't ask, and 2, when he apparently never paid for it) seals the douche deal here.

29. So all those luxury cars parked in his driveway shown on MTv cRIBS were leased or financed. Wow. Cocaine is a helluva drug.

30. LOL, Timbaland and Christina Aguilera are probably laughing their azzes off!

let's see, Tim went w/ Nelly Furtado, Keri Hilson, and Justin Timberlake, all three of whom have had major hits and albums. Storch went w/ Brooke Hogan, the slutty daughter of a has-been wrestler. are people really wondering why he's a failure?
