'Preppie Killer' (Robert Chambers) Arrested on Drug Charge - AP

Excerpt:

NEW YORK - "Preppie Killer" Robert Chambers was arrested on a drug charge a year and a half after he was released from prison, where he served a 15-year sentence for manslaughter.

Chambers, 38, was freed on $1,000 bail Wednesday after being arraigned on two misdemeanors, drug possession and driving with a suspended license. The court complaint said the license was suspended in May when Chambers failed to answer a summons for running a red light.

He was arrested Tuesday in a traffic stop when police allegedly found two straws and a tinfoil packet that had crack cocaine residue. Chambers was ordered to return to court Monday.

Chambers strangled 18-year-old Jennifer Levin in 1986 during a tryst in Central Park, and the slaying was splashed across New York City's tabloids as a story of privileged youth gone bad.

10. It's too bad he never got a murder conviction for Jennifer Levin's death

Oh, well, does NY have a 3 strikes law? If he's convicted, one more conviction after that and it's life.

I always thought that there was a great injustice in the manslaughter conviction. If he hadn't been a rich boy, he would have been convicted of murder and possibly rape.
