COVINGTON -- A nephew of Hustler publisher Larry Flynt faces drug charges after police found him asleep with an exotic dancer in a hotel parking lot.
As officers woke up Dustin Flynt, 23, they noticed a bong, used to smoke crack, in the car between Mr. Flynt and the woman asleep in the driver's seat. Searching him, police found a rock of crack cocaine in his pocket.
Mr. Flynt was charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. The woman, Stacy Donovan, 20, of Covington, was charged with possession of a controlled substance and tampering with evidence. The latter, police said, stemmed from her allegedly trying to stash the bong in the back seat so officers wouldn't see it.
Ms. Donovan described herself to police as a dancer for Sophisticate Entertainment, the arrest report said. The company advertises in the Yellow Pages as a Cincinnati business specializing in bachelor, bachelorette and birthday parties.
Mr. Flynt listed his address as Sherman Oaks, Calif. He has been in the area recently, however, and helped his uncle open the controversial Hustler News & Gifts in downtown Cincinnati last fall.
Both he and Ms. Donovan also were charged with theft of a motor vehicle plate, police said, because the license plates on the white Toyota Corolla were stolen. The car was parked outside the Extended Stay America hotel on West Third Street when police noticed it about 3 a.m.
Mr. Flynt and Ms. Donovan were released from jail Monday morning after appearing in Kenton District Court. Each posted $250, 10 percent of their $2,500 bonds.
