WHERE'S WHITNEY?

Editor:

This is a letter seeking information from your readers.

Have any of you seen or heard of the trial of Whitney Houston -- you
remember -- the wealthy woman who was caught with pakalolo, thumbed her
nose at the Hawaii police and thought she could get away scot free?

Six months ago, Lt. Hickox of the HPD vice squad said that Whitney was just
dreaming, and that she would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law
- -- just like anyone else.

Now, I must have missed something, somewhere. I keep seeing on the police
docket the names of locals who are arrested, tried and convicted of
possessing dangerous drugs like sterile hemp seed, but I haven't seen
Whitney Houston mentioned. Have you?

Could any of you readers let me know what happened to her. When was she
arrested? When was she tried? Where is she serving time?
