HIGH MISDEMEANOR?

Amid independent counsel Ken Starr's secret grand jury proceedings
yesterday came the first hint of drugs. Maybe.

Was that a partially smoked marijuana cigarette (or "roach," to those who
inhale) left in the third floor ladies' room near the grand jury chamber?
Or was it some exotic hand-rolled tobacco cigarette?

Female reporters popped into the loo for a look and a courtroom artist
sketched it, reports The Post's Ben White. A U.S. marshal said it could be
"reefer" and left it there. Then someone nicked it.
