Heatherton informed police who she was after being arrested, but they didn’t believe her. She then surrendered her handbag to one of the cops to verify her identification. The officer discovered a foil package containing less than a gram of cocaine while searching Heatherton’s handbag. Heatherton was charged with misdemeanor narcotics possession and assault.
