MONTEL CAUGHT WITH WEED: Airports are just not celebrity-friendly.
Montel
(Nov. 6, 2003) *It's been recently discovered that motivational speaker and television talk show host Montel Williams has succumbed to the evil demon weed.
Of all places, Williams came through Detroit Metropolitan Airport with his stash and was fined $100 by authorities.
The Detroit News reported that Williams, who has multiple sclerosis, has been prescribed medicinal marijuana for treatment of the disease.
"He has prescriptions for many different medications for MS," a statement on his behalf read. "One of the medications he has been prescribed to alleviate his chronic pain is medical marijuana."
Monday night, the 47-year-old talk show host-actor paid the fine and left Michigan.
