Chelsea O’Donnell , daughter of comedian Rosie O’Donnell , faces three felony counts and two misdemeanors after she was pulled over earlier this month while driving a vehicle that belonged to a woman with a warrant out for her arrest. Chelsea, 27, is charged with possession of methamphetamine, narcotic possession, felony bail jumping, obstructing an officer and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was booked into Oconto County Jail on October 11 and posted bail three days later.
During a traffic stop early that morning, officers say Chelsea was visibly nervous, refusing to look police in the eye. “I asked Chelsea where she was going tonight, and initially stated she didn’t know, then appeared to catch herself, and stated ‘to a friend’s,’” according to a police report obtained by Us Weekly . “I asked Chelsea who her friend was and she stated she did not know.
I asked the passenger for ID and he did not acknowledge me, and kept looking straight. I asked Chelsea if there were illegal drugs in the vehicle. Chelsea stated she wasn’t sure if there was or not.
” Per police who pulled her over, Chelsea has an open felony drug case for multiple counts of drug possession and maintaining a drug trafficking place. After asking Chelsea to step out of the car, she then tried to throw a meth pipe into the nearby Oconto River but failed as the pipe bounced off a fence, hit the sidewalk and broke. A police dog also sniffed out the car and detected illegal narcotics.
