Tatum O'Neal Slapped on Wrist For Crack Purchase

Crime may not pay.

Neither will Tatum O'Neal, though.

Despite getting caught buying crack, the former wild child actress got charges of drug possession dropped by a New York judge and instead pleaded guilty to a modest, misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct.

The damage? $95.

Manhattan judge Elisa Koenderman sentenced Tatum O'Neal, the youngest Oscar winner in history, to spend half-day sessions in a drug treatment program.

One wonders where Tatum O'Neal will come up with that kind of money.

Talk about a brutal punishment - brutally boring, that is. It's in New York, not L.A., so there's no way Snoop Dogg will even be there.
