New York, Feb 26 (ANI): It has emerged that actor Michael Douglas’ drug-dealing son, Cameron, will remain in jail until he is sentenced in April.

Cameron Douglas, 31, was denied bail on February 25 by a Manhattan federal judge, who said the actor couldn’t be trusted to stay off dope on house arrest.

“His living at home is unlikely to prove a powerful deterrent to relapse,” the New York Daily News quoted Judge Richard Berman as ruling.

His lawyers argued that he could be closely monitored and receive treatment while on home detention, but seeing as to how in August his girlfriend tried to smuggle heroin to him in an electric toothbrush, the motion was denied.

Cameron has pleaded guilty to dealing crystal meth and coke from the trendy Hotel Gansevoort, and he now faces at least 10 years in prison. (ANI)
