Culkin Claims Innocence in Drug Bust
Big Mac is no druggie.
That's the message Macaulay Culkin was trying to send Wednesday as he pleaded not guilty to drug-possession charges.
The erstwhile Home Alone star entered the innocent plea Wednesday in a brief appearence at an Oklahoma City courtroom.
Everyone's favorite former child star was arrested Sept. 17 while traveling with a friend through the city. Culkin was formally charged Sept. 20 on misdemeanor charges of marijuana possession and possession of a controlled substance without a prescription.
Culkin was in the middle of a cross-country road trip at the time of his arrest in Oklahoma.
According to the Oklahoma County Sheriff's Department, around 4 p.m. on Sept. 17, Culkin and a buddy were traveling down Interstate 44 in northeast Oklahoma City. The two New York City pals were pulled over for driving 70 mph in a 60 mph zone.
After the arresting OKC police officer, Chad Cook, advised Culkin that his friend had given consent to search the vehicle, Cook discovered 17.3 grams of marijuana near Culkin's black bag on the passenger side of the car. Cook then handcuffed Culkin and took him to jail.
Oklahoma City Police Captain Jeffrey Becker told E! Online last month that in addition to Culkin's marijuana charge, the actor was also booked on possession of eight Xanax pills and 32 milligrams of Clonazepam, a potentially addictive sedative used to treat seizures.
Culkin did not have prescriptions for either drug, said Becker.
The Party Monster actor was released on $4,000 bond just hours after his arrest.
After a four-year run in the early 1990s as one of Hollywood's most powerful child actors, Culkin saw his career torpedoed by family troubles.
In 1995, his father and manager, Kit, and mother, Patricia, split (they'd never married) and began a bitter war over Macaulay's millions and custody issues. Soon after, Culkin--who once commanded $5 million for films such as Home Alone 2: Lost in New York--was more likely to be sighted in a New York nightclub than on a movie set.
The 24-year-old has been trying to make a comeback of late, with a starring role in the 2003 indie hit Party Monster and a well-received performance in this year's Saved! He recently inked a development deal with NBC that includes him headlining a sitcom for next season.
The next court hearing in the Culkin case is set for Dec. 2.
