On Saturday August 15th, The Real Housewives of Orange County “star” Matt Keough (mugshot pictured above) was pulled over by cops for running a stop sign. When Keough was given a blood test, they found his Blood Alcohol Content was three times over the legal limit.
According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, Koeugh was arrested, taken into custody and later posted bail with a $10,000 bond.
Last year Keough was arrested and sentenced to 180 days jail for violating probation stemming from a 2005 DUI charge. No word at this time what the latest charge could mean for Keough.

When Michael Jackson died on June 25th in California, Dr. Conrad Murray was by his side.
Today, Dr. Murray’s office in Houston TX was searched by Los Angeles Police detectives and federal Drug Enforcement Agency agents using a search warrant.
Ed Chernoff, a lawyer in Houston hired by Murray shortly after Michael Jackson’s death stated that “the search warrant authorized law enforcement to search for and seize items, including documents, they believed constituted evidence of the offense of manslaughter.” He also added that the detectives “left with a forensic image of a business computer hard drive and 21 documents” when they concluded their search in the early afternoon.
No notice has been given as of this writing as to what those documents were.

Last week on July 16th, a video was posted on an adult-oriented website that was filmed through a hotel door peephole and showing a nude woman. Although not specifically named, the video description hinted that it was a “blonde who looks a lot like a sports blogger favorite in her hotel room.”
In less than twenty four hours after posting, the website received the following statement from ESPN.
I am the General Counsel of ESPN, Inc. It has come to my attention that you have posted on your site pictures of a young, blonde woman at [redacted]. These pictures were obviously taken through a peephole or otherwise in a fashion constituting a trespass/assault on the rights of the woman involved. Your continued posting of these pictures are highly likely to render you an accessory after the fact to a criminal act. We hereby demand that you (i) immediately remove these pictures from your site and (ii) disclose to us the source of the pictures. We intend to hold you fully responsible for further display of material that so obviously violates the law.
Please confirm by return e-mail that you intend to comply with these demands. In the absence of such confirmation we will assume you are an active and willing participant in these acts.

The video was taken down, though the blog’s proprietor Doug Sheckler has stated will not name the original source of the video.
Andrews’ lawyer later made a statement via a Newswire press release:
“While alone in the privacy of her hotel room, Erin Andrews was surreptitiously videotaped without her knowledge or consent. She was the victim of a crime and is taking action to protect herself and help ensure that others are not similarly violated in the future. Although the perpetrator or perpetrators of this criminal act have not yet been identified, when they are identified she intends to bring both civil and criminal charges against them and against anyone who has published the material. We request respect of Erin’s privacy at this time, while she and her representatives are working with the authorities.”
We’ll have more on this story as it continues, and provide information if and when the culprits have been identified.

Court records show that Lenny Dykstra, former center fielder for the New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
According to petition at U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Central District of California that was filed on Tuesday, Dykstra has less than $50,000 in total assets and liabilities ranging between $10 million and $50 million.
In Chapter 11 bankruptcy a company is protected from creditors while it restructures its business, and Dykstra’s filing comes in the wake of some 20 lawsuits filed against him and his activities as a financial entrepreneur. Among those suing is a magazine Dykstra help to launch, The Players Club.
Jonathan Hayes, one of Dykstra’s lawyers, had no comment.

On July 4th, Steve McNair - a former NFL quaterback who played for the Tennessee Titans and an NFL MVP in 2003 - was found dead in his home from multiple gunshot wounds including one to the head. A female, who was tentatively unidentified though was confirmed as not being McNair’s wife, was also found in the home dead. A pistol was found near the bodies.
Statements were later issued including:
Nashville Metro PD spokesman Don Aaron: “When police officers arrived in response to that call, they found two individuals who had been shot to death inside the residence: one female, one male. We now know that the male deceased is Steve McNair. The female deceased has been tentatively identified. We’re working to confirm that and then notify her next of kin.”
Titans owner K.S. “Bud” Adams Jr.: “We are saddened and shocked to hear the news of Steve McNair’s passing today. He was one of the finest players to play for our organization and one of the most beloved players by our fans. He played with unquestioned heart and leadership and led us to places that we had never reached, including our only Super Bowl. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family as they deal with his untimely passing.”
The deceased woman was later identified as Sahel Kazemi.
Nashville PD now believe that McNair and Kazemi “had been in a dating relationship” and recent photos of the pair on vacation have been found.
The investigation appears to be leading toward murder/suicide. McNair’s death has been ruled a Homicide, though Kazemi’s death has yet to be classified pending additional investigation.
