Gore's Son In Pot Bust

DECEMBER 22--Turns out the Bush gals aren't the only political offspring landing on court dockets. Albert A. Gore, III, the former vice president's 21-year-old son, was nabbed Friday in Bethesda, Maryland on a marijuana possession charge after cops executed a traffic stop (lil' Gore was driving a Cadillac without its headlights on). When an officer approached Gore's ride--which had all of its windows and sunroof open despite frigid temperatures--he caught a whiff of wacky weed. A police search of the vehicle turned up a joint, a baggie suspected to contain marijuana, and a soda can that apparently had been used as a makeshift bong. Below you'll find the Montgomery County Department of Police booking photo of young Mr. Gore, who was popped along with two fellow Harvard students riding in his Caddy. (1 page)
