HOLLYWOOD - Socialite Paris Hilton is at the center of a Maryland police investigationafter information leaked to the authorities claims she has allegedly offered
teenagers drugs and alcohol.
Baltimore Police officials have confirmed they're taking the reports very
seriously, adding Hilton could face a hefty fine and jail time if she's found
guilty.
The allegations stem from an episode of reality show The Simple Life:
Interns, when Hilton reportedly offered teens marijuana and bourbon to "loosen
them up" for a taped segment.
One of the teens involved has told police, "She loaded myself and two other
underage kids on shots of Jack Daniels to loosen us up for the show."
Baltimore Police Detective Chris Schaeffer tells tabloid the National
Enquirer, "These are serious allegations. We will certainly be investigating
them."
A spokesman for 20th Century Fox - the company behind The Simple Life -
insists the allegations are false: "Paris would never endanger the welfare of a
minor."

Meanwhile, Paris Latsis' dad has heightened speculation the Greek shipping heir
will not wed Paris Hilton, by declaring the pair are not as close as they used
to be.
Hotel heiress Hilton accepted Latsis' marriage proposal in the early summer,
and they soon traveled to Greece to seek out a suitable location for a
wedding ceremony.
But since their return to the U.S., the pair have hardly been seen out together
and Hilton has fought off rumors that she's now romancing music producer Scott
Storch, who she recently spent a lot of time with during New York Fashion
Week.
And now Latsis' father Gregoris Kasidokostas tells Star magazine, "There does
seem to be some problem [between them]. I understand that they are not as close
as they used to be.
"Both his mother and I agree that our son is far too young to contemplate
marriage and children. Our son agreed with us. There was a unanimity on this
issue."
Despite Kasidokostas' statement, Hilton insists she just recently went
wedding dress shopping.
