"Desperate Housewives" actor busted for joint in NYC
in the Post today, actor Cody Kasch was arrested for smoking a joint in the EV last night...

"Desperate Housewives" actor Cody Kasch was arrested last night after he was caught smoking a joint outside a Lower East Side bar, police said. Kasch, 18, who plays Zach Young on the ABC drama, was spotted puffing the joint by plainclothes narcotics cops at 11:15 p.m. on the corner of First Street and Second Avenue. Kasch was issued a desk appearance ticket.

why does he get an "appearance ticket" while everyone else we know gets hauled off to spend 48 hours in jail!?... gives us a little hope NYPD's policy is changing. anyway congratulations Cody! you've made CityRag's ever growing list of Celebrities that Smoke Weed!

ps - why doesn't the Post know that 1st St and 2nd Ave is the East Village (not the LES)?!

Update: leave it to the Gothamist to come up with a killer headline: Desperate for a Celebrity Pot Bust

Update 2: from the Post "The young 'Desperate Housewives' star busted for allegedly smoking pot on the Lower East Side was 'just in the wrong place at the wrong time,' his manager said yesterday"
