Michael Douglas' Son Big-Time Meth Dealer?
Source: CBS News/AP

Michael Douglas' son traveled coast to coast dealing large quantities of methamphetamine before his arrest last month, according to a criminal complaint made public Thursday.

The complaint in federal court in Manhattan alleges that Cameron Douglas was paid tens of thousands of dollars for trafficking the drug - referred to in transactions by the code words "pastry" or "bath salts" - since 2006. Cash and drugs were routinely exchanged through shippers like FedEx, the court papers said.

The 30-year-old son of the Oscar-winning actor was arrested July 28 at the trendy Hotel Gansevoort in Manhattan. His attorney, Nicholas DeFeis, declined to comment Thursday.

Federal authorities have refused to discuss whether Cameron Douglas remains behind bars or any other aspect of the case.

The complaint, drawn up by a Drug Enforcement Administration agent, details allegations based on information provided by three unnamed crystal meth users and dealers. The users - including someone who once worked for Cameron Douglas - have pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate with the investigation.

5. He'll be given the opportunity to "cooperate", "name names", etc.
to get a conviction with a probation of sentence.

And he'll get busted again in a few years.
