Mary Ann aka Dawn Wells Busted for Pot

Well, I guess this is one way to get back in the news, right? There’s an old saying in Hollywood, that once your career is over you can’t even get arrested in this town. Well Dawn Wells, 69, formerly Mary Ann on Gilligan’s Island, did get arrested, but she was in Idaho at the time. (One out of two ain’t bad.) Wells was busted by a Teton County sheriff’s Deputy (I don’t know where the hell that is, either) with marijuana in her car. She’s set to serve six months’ unsupervised probation for the bust. Best part of the story: Wells blamed the marijuana smell coming from her car on three hitchhikers she had given a ride to earlier. Nice one, Mary Ann!
