SNOOP OF THE WIRE ARRESTED IN DRUG RAID!

So the saying is true: you can take the girl out the hood, but you can't take the hood out the girl. Damn you, Snoop!
Felicia "Snoop" Pearson of the hit HBO show The Wire was one of 63 suspects arrested on Wednesday for federal and state conspiracy after police raided suspects out of homes and off the street. The arrest was a successful effort to end drugs and violence in Baltimore since opening the case in 2008.

Police say Snoop's involvement in the illegal activity was minimal, but are hoping her publicity would send a message to any other drug rings to watch their backs!

In all, they charged 63 suspects with federal and state drug conspiracy charges -- among them actress Felicia "Snoop" Pearson, whose arrest on heroin-related and aiding and abetting charges echoed the street lifestyle she portrayed as a character in HBO's series "The Wire" and sought to overcome in her personal life.

The arrests were the culmination of an intensive five-month investigation by the DEA and Baltimore police, acting on intelligence that started flowing in about the Latrobe Homes-based organization in 2008, authorities said at an afternoon press conference.

"Our goal was to totally dismantle this organization from head to toe, and everything in between," Carl J. Kotowski, the Drug Enforcement Administration's assistant special agent in charge, said as hundreds of officers assembled before dawn at M&T Bank Stadium to prepare for the raids.
