UPDATED! UPDATED! UPDATED! UPDATED!
Okay, now we have a story, US Weekly has reported that they have seen court documents that show at the time of Kim’s arrest she was on multiple substances. ” Richards, 50, has been charged with public intoxication, resisting arrest, and battery on a cop by the L.A. County District Attorney. According to the official court documents, Richards was “under the influence of intoxicating liquor and a drug, a controlled substance, and toluene.” So she was drunk, on pills, the controlled substance is likely pot, and toluene. Toluene is used by addicts as an inhalant. It is found in paint thinner, nail polish and other flammable liquids. Since toluene is rapidly absorbed in the brain, the preferred mode of delivery is by “huffing” or “sniffing”. Unlike other inhalants, one session of inhaling toluene can disrupt heart rhythms causing a heart attack and/or oxygen levels can drop low enough to cause death by.
So things were much worse than we even expected. Yet Kim is in sober living and Brandi recently took her boys there and compared it to the Four Seasons. She also said Kim is on a 30 day stay. This does not bode well for Kim coming out of this alive.
Brooke was at the sober living facility visiting Kim on Mother’s day and captioned her photo with “Happy Mother’s Day to the best mom a girl could ask for
i vote for going back to bed. on my days off i do that after i take my daighter to school. it is wonderful!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s done this.
I thought it meant that the DA had reviewed her arrest records and these are now the official charges she will have to answer to in court. Figured I should comment since I was one of the idiots that sent you an email. 🙂
I think that’s exactly what it means.
The “reports” make it sound as if she has been officially criminally charged – when is/was her hearing”
Again, you are charged when you are arrested. That is why on TV the cop says “your are under arrest” and the person says, “on what charges???” The DA can decide there is insufficient evidence and drop the charges, but that didn’t happen here.
Court was set for Monday, but I expect that to change.

The story is so strange. (Not your post but TMZ) I thought she was charged upon her booking and that’s why her bond?/bail? was so high at 20k? Except trespassing being dropped, it is exactly the same info.
When you broke the story initially her court date was monday May 18th. I wonder if that will still stand or if the DA will allow it to be continued since she is in “sober living” and busy posting Instagram pics.
She is free to come and go from sober living, thus the vaping store fieldtrip. She is available for court.

And the enabling continues. I agree with whomever said…this will not end well. Sorry to hear that Kim is free to go anywhere as she and a car are dangerous weapons of possible mass destruction. Thinking about her gives me chills and I am disliking her more and more with every story I read. Addict or not…this is not a nice person but a spoiled, self-entitled brat who is a danger to herself and others.
When I saw this story I was confused too. Hadn’t she already been charged and had a court date set for misdemeanors? Why all of a sudden is TMZ making a big deal out of what has already been put into motion? and why are they talking about jail time for misdemeanors? Okay, what’s really up?
I think the police send the case to the DA, and the DA decides just what charges to apply and which to drop. I seem to remember that’s how it worked when I was car jacked. Fun times!
Yeah, I get that part. But, still, it seems like such a nonstory.
Sorry about the car jacking, that sounds pretty awful. Still, Kim has three misdemeanors and TMZ is dropping the ‘jail time’ ball, and since when does three misdemeanors equal jail time?
I agree. Must be a slow news day 😉 No way is she going to get jail time, but it sure sounds titillating in their story.
I guess I’m in the minority. I think Kim thought the charges would be dropped what with her Dr. Phil interview, going to “rehab”, lack of priors, and Hilton influence. I was pleased to see they are now official charges.
Yeah, this is odd. Something’s fishy. I assume they wouldn’t be running a story about Kim facing jail time if it weren’t a real possibility. Then again, I’ve assumed wrong before. Did shit just get real?
No TMZ just got dramatic. There is no story here.

I think the “story” here for TMZ is that the DA is allowing the charges to stay sticky and not magically disappear like I imagine might happen routinely in that hood…
Ignore my pre-update comment.
Jesus F. Christ. HUFFING??? If I am acting like a frat douche in my 50s, so help me god.
Toluene is related to benzene. It can destroy bone marrow, liver. Well, we all know this is Lisa Rinna, BravoTV, and above all, Kyle’s fault.
Holy fucking crap! Seriously, huffing is really bad. I’m surprised that she’s so far gone in her drug use. I really am. I though she was most likely a drunk who did the usual coke and pills on the side. I would never have expected this. She seriously needs real help AND constant supervision. She’s a danger to herself and others. This is not a joke.
And what the fucking fuck is Brandi doing visiting her?!!! That woman is the devil. I have no way of knowing this, but my spidey sense tells me that she was there the night of the arrest and then probably bolted when the cops showed up. Brandi seems like she’s trying to kill Kim. She’s probably still pissed about that slut pig comment and contributing to Kim’s public humiliation is her little way of evening the score. Demonic. Like my fave vloggers say: ” I wasn’t there but I saw you.”
That explains the brain damage. No wonder she sees turtles and prays to trash cans. And BFF award of the year goes to…………. Brandi Glanville.
She would probably be dead if she didn’t get arrested. explains Kingsley’s behavior, too. Second hand huffing.
Im hoping for jail time even for a few weeks. But Kim wont get nothing like that. All charges were misdemeanors. So at best I expect a big fine and prohibition.
As for the toluene in her system, this only proves she a bigger liar in her Dr Phil interview with her one shot of vodka claim. Kim is a straight up addict. Shes probably had done just about any drug shes gotten her hands on that will get her high. The only reason shes not dead is because her family has kept her enabled for so many years.
Oh the oldest daughter saying she loves her no matter what again did Kim say her children would walk away from her if she ever got back to her old ways doing substances. More boldface lies as usual.
Tatar you should have gone back to bed …
Tamara! Goddamn keyboard gremlins!
I thought she had misdemeanor charges earlier (less than a year). Even in your original writeup, you said they were all misdemeanors.
But now the TMZ story says she is facing two years, felony time? So maybe she was indicted with felonies instead?? Is that what happened?
You can be sentenced to jail time for misdemeanors. TMZ was apparently really bored. There is no story here.

You can be sentenced to jail for misdemeanors, but only a year. If it’s up to two years, she may have new, now felony, charges. It’s common to be arrested and then indicted on stuff later or for DAs to change charges.
What part of all her charges are misdemeanors do you not understand? She has three charges Some two have a max of a year the third has a max of six months. The sentences would run concurrently. However jail time is rarely given in these type cases she will get probation and a fine. There is no felony charge involved in this case no matter how much uninformed speculation you do.

I saw the story AGAIN this morning. I didn’t understand it then and I don’t now. It offered no new news so I just laughed and said it must be a really slow news day. And of course being TMZ …repeated news is better than no news? Yeah, that must be it.
It’s raining in So Cal today [ weather news ]
Rain in Cen Cal too. Started late 3:00 pm, SF is getting wet also.
Oh good! You’re getting some much needed rain.
Yay, another Cen Cal girl! It poured here, thank God we needed it!

We are all doing the happy rain dance. Just stay off the freeways! They’re a mess!
I just watched the 3 pm news here (KTLA), and they covered the story. Basically said the same thing – formally charged with the three charges – and she is due “back” in court June 11. I’ve no idea why it’s a story today, but I was a little surprised that the local news station covered it. I mean, they gave up several minutes they could have devoted to covering today’s rain. It was at least half of the sixty minutes 🙂 Wasn’t her hearing to take place about this date? I think the only news about this is that the DA didn’t drop any charges.
So much for the old saying “there’s no such thing as bad publicity.”
She can’t be on toulene. She’s been sober for three years.
If she is/was sniffing something, that could explain all of the bathroom trips over the years and the odd behavior. Well, I hope she enjoys her stay at the Four Seasons like facility. Kind of makes you wonder what she puts in those e-cigs.
I think toulene is an ingredient in meth, and lots of people say she has meth face. It must be embarassing to her that this was released, and I say good! (Just want to say, I know nothing about drugs, so I could be wrong).
You are wrong. I explained what the drug was in the post. You making up shit and then admitting you have no idea what you are talking about takes away from the actual reporting that I did.

Oh, and I think the drug was pot, and the controlled substances the variety of “medication” she takes.
I can’t believe that we are not talking about Kim being a huffer. Wow, that’s really going low to get high. She is one wasted person. It just seems so dangerous. Kim needs a lot more than sober living.
OMG. Alcohol and pot is not a surprise but tuelene. So does this mean that Kim on crystal meth or is she sniffing glue??
You could read the post and know what she was sniffing.

Ok, got it. Paint thinner, nail polish and other flammable liquids…
Alcohol seems like the least of Kim problems. More like shes into all drugs just about. It can explain her weird behavior and her barely can put her thoughts and sentences together and express a clear reasoning. Just pitiful.
Toluene? Isn’t that in nail polish? Good Lawd. That’s like I think what happened with Demi Moore. These folks trying not to use real ” drugs” because of prior addiction issues. She is a hot mess and I’m sure she won’t stay sober and probably never really was for any length of time. Sad, sad. Really hope she is off RHOBH.
Real drugs, fake drugs, Kim appears to be an equal opportunity user.
In California you are arrested for the suspicion of a crime. It is up to the District Attorney’s office to formally charge the accused. It seems that TMZ is reporting that she has been formally charged.
I almost sent you a link, but my assumption that multiple people probably already had got the better of me. I wondered why this was a story today, too.
Well, I’m sure one drink of vodka, after being super sober for 3 years, is responsible for these tox results. After all, Kim doesn’t drink, smoke, or do drugs.
If tuolene = meth, does that mean that Brandi was correct?
She is in a world of hurt. If she is using that many substances, is it harder to get clean and stay that way? Her poor kids must be devastated.
IT IS NOT METH. The commenter was full of shit. THE DRUGS WERE LISTED IN THE ARTICLE ABOVE. THIS IS NOT A GAME OF GUESS WTF KIM WAS HUFFING, POPPING, SMOKING AND DRINKING. I STATED THE FACTS IN THE MOTHER FUCKING POST.
Thanks and have a nice day.

Sorry TT. I read up above. Should have googled it myself.
How did Dr. Phil not know this??? He could have so called her out on all of this.
No wonder Brandi and Kim get along so well. They are both lying liars who lie!!
Kim must have thought these reports wouldn’t come out. I don’t believe Kim will ever be sober again in her lifetime. Which is extremely sad for her kids and family. I also hope she is not asked back for Rhobh. But we all know Andy likes to exploit things like this so I won’t hold my breath
I don’t think Bravo can afford the liability of Kim now that they are aware she is an addict who is not getting the proper treatment. It puts the others on the show and Kim in danger.
I seriously doubt she will be back.

Your mouth to Andy’s ears. One can only hope.
I hope to jaysus jugs and all of the desciples you are right!
If Kim doesn’t come back then Brandi has no allies (Yolanda may be sick ). Maybe a new person will join or Camille will come back as they had similar divorce situations and bonded. Then Brandi will turn on Camille and spill her big secrets.
Huffing is a desperate drug. But I guess they all are. Her whole situation is sad and depressing.
Your keyboard to Gods ears…
Please, puhleeeze let this be true and Bravo drops paying for her “meds” by continuing to give her a paycheck.
Huffing. WTF That’s bad on a whole other level.
Great point TT. I wondered what you thought about this question. I am very scared we will read soon she is dead. Her poor chuldrEn. Huffing something? WhOa. She was on all of these things and allegedelly drove? Awful. Dangerous. Pisses me off really. She could have killed someone. She is just so selfish or so addicted she doesn’t feel anything.
The toluene can stay in your system for up to four days after huffing the inhalant. For all the deleted comments about meth. I have no doubt Kim has done meth. It may even be the drug that was not disclosed in the report. But the test for Meth is looking for…..wait for it…. METH or it’s metabolite amphetamine. Both would be in the urine, and well could have been. The drug was not named. I’m assuming it was a pill or the patch. But for a positive toluene result, the cause is huffing an inhalant.

Yeah, I hope this is where Andy and The Bravo gang draw the line. For Kim’s sake. As much as I dislike what I’ve seen of her on TV I don’t want her situation to get worse, only better. But getting kicked off the show might not be good for her either. That might push her over the edge. This is not an easy situation for her or for anybody involved. Imagine how Kyle must feel.
Dr. Phil did call her out and question her story over and over again saying: “Kim if all you had was two fingers of vodka you should have been sober by the time the police arrested you. Your story doesn’t make sense”. He probably didn’t have access to her tox screen.
With that combo of substances and her staying in a recovery home treating it likes it’s a vacation…..her prognosis is not good.
Well, he was almost onto something. He asked her if she was drinking out of a paint can.
LOL!!!
heh, good point, gessie.

Wow! That explains the statement Brandi made to Lisa Rinna at the lunch about Kim being or doing so much more than anyone would ever know! I mean we all were just thinking along the lines of her swiping one of Montys patches, now to find out she is huffing as well is deeply disturbing. If she (Brandi) did have first hand knowledge of Kim using those substances why oh why would she not lift a finger to help that woman! It’s all so sickening !
I don’t know if Brandi knew she claims to know bad stuff about people all the time.
For some reason I think Brandi wasn’t lying or exaggerating about that in particular. She weaseled her way into Kim’s life just so she could be privy to such things. If they were drinking buddies, then there’s no telling what Kim revealed to her off camera.
Please forgive me, but I wouldn’t be shocked to learn that Brandi is actually enjoying watching Kim struggle. Call me mistrustful, or paranoid or whatever. Brandi has no morals, at all. I think she’s totally capable of steering someone in the wrong direction for her own amusement. Why do you think Kyle was so upset by their friendship?
Brandi just may have lost her only willing filming partner. Who knows how Yolanda will be doing by the time filming restarts.
Evidently, Kim’s children feel that Brandi is a “toxic” influence on Kim. I’m sure she is not helping Kim’s situation any.
But Kim was (still is) doing patches when Brandi said that. I wouldn’t be surprised if Brandi has known Kim like to huff or sniff nail polish or air dusters.
Wow! I know this may sound a tad bit cold but…………
I see no hope of Kim ever being sober. Between ALL of the different substances and her thinking she doesn’t need help…it is a bad combination.
Are we really going to have spend the next season of RHOBH listening to her defend all she needed was this little 30 day sint at sober living? Also, if this is what Kim calls sober, imagine what all she was on when she wasn’t claiming to be sober.
Delusional….out of her mind…….just like all the other crackheads out there. They will all say something totally out there and look at you like you are crazy for even thinking for a second that it isn’t true.
Can anyone remind me why Kim &/or Kyle thought Kim being on RHOBH was EVER a good idea?
I feel bad for her kids.
Kyle probably thought it was a good opportunity for Kim to be gainfully employed, and for Kyle to be able to keep an eye on her. She’s probably terrified for Kim’s safety, especially in light of this new revelation. Kyle can’t make Kim do anything, or stick to any kind of schedule, but an employer has more power to do so vis a vis the paycheck the give her. Just a thought on my part.
Boom!!! Very powerful point! Totally agree!
Very fair points! I’m sure Kyle did not imagine that Kim would not keep herself a bit more in check when being filmed for a major TV show.
It is not sad in my opinion. This woman has every advantage, everything to live for, every opportunity to make better choices, and she doesn’t want to. She chooses to publicly abuse those that care about her and want to help. She chooses to continue enjoying her “disease”.
Her expiration date for sympathy is long past.
I think Kim enjoys her drink and drugs way too much to change. Her current behavior is evidence of that.
I disagree. I think it is very sad. Kim is a human. A mother, sister, aunt, friend….no she is not very nice and I do not care for her but I feel sorry for her and I find this sad. Sad for her life and for those that love her. I could tell by watching my tv her children love her and Kyle loves her.
The only way a person will get help or change their ways is if they hit rock bottom. For some people that means losing their job, or their spouse/partner leaving them, or the death of a loved one, or whatever other sort of traumatic event. Kim hasn’t really lost anything. Her family tolerates her, she’s got plenty of access to money, she doesn’t really have any obligations or responsibilities, and she’s incurably assured of her own superiority. She has no concrete reason to change. The arrest and public embarrassment are things that she’ll simply blame on someone else, or chalk up to a smidgen of bad luck. She’s got the mentality of a toddler. This is a 50 year old woman, with a very serious drug problem, who thinks like a pre-schooler. That’s not good.
I agree with Minky. Kim is lucky her family has kept her enabled all these years as she has tried just about every drug. The only way Kim could ever appreciate anything is if she does hot bottom and the family starts walking away. But will they do such thing – no.
I wholeheartedly agree with minky too. Unfortunately, that’s the bottom line reality real drug addicts must often times go through. Addicts are addicts well before they consider being a mother aunt or sister.
Can’t even imagine how her kids and sisters are handling this.
That’s odd. Part of that report is missing. A “controlled substance” is either classified as Schedule I or Schedule II-V. Which *schedule* was on Kim’s tox report?
And for icing on the cake- what was the blood alcohol? I ask because I’m doing a science experiment for my kids next year: “how many ounces can one pour in 2 inches?”
You can have a comedic break by visiting Brooke’s Instagram photo that TT wrote about. Monty’s first wife, Kim Richards, posted a comment under Brooke’s Mother’s Day photo of Kim and her. Monty’s second wife, TerryLynnDoss, also posted a loving comment under the same photo. Her comment expresses love for Brooke and Kim. omg. One big happy family.
It doesn’t mean they can’t love her because she is an addict. I am not a Kim fan but I find some comments kind of cold. I do personally think Kim needs to stay off of social media and her family should stay away from posting things regarding her but its just an opinion. I don’t know what I would do in their position except be terrified every time my phone rang I was getting a call she died.
I stand corrected sad the man in orthopedic shoes. I found it odd that wife 2 is putting wife 1 on ILY blast.
Hopefully with the tox screen the judge will put Kim on court ordered AA/NA meetings. In California like many states they have first offender drug court. Kim is now eligible.
I doubt if she did attend she would be open to help. If she doesn’t attend, Kim will get into the loop Lohan got herself into.
Finally a court ordered “real” rehab might happen.
That would be a low for most women so maybe she will want to be clean then.
Kim has no reason to get clean now. Has nothing to lose.
She needs court ordered rehab.
Maybe that could happen but also maybe it could be over a year before she is sentenced.
I agree Tootsie. Her going to these luxury spa rehabs hasnt worked for her. It’s more like a vacation for her. She needs what Dr Phil was going to provide in her sit down with him but she knows every trick of the trade about rehabs now.
Right, because court ordered rehab has done so much to help Lindsey Lohan. The courts can’t keep up with criminals let alone substance abusers. Probation is about $$$. The first month you can’t pay your fee to your probation officer is when trouble starts.
Meh. My sister in law went to court appointed rehab and then went right back to what she was doing.
I think you’re right calipatti — and I can just see her making that same face as in her pic up above, siting in a meeting and checked-out. What is left to motivate her to get better? I sometimes wonder if her family thought, Kim being in the public eye on RH’s and maybe getting some work would “shame” her into getting it together.
I always picture people who are sniffing stuff as poor high school kids. For some reason, I never picture a somewhat affluent adult like Kim or a Demi Moore.
Toluene. What the fuck? Is methane from a disconnected plumbing pipe next? Kim needs to stop fearing life, like shit, it happens.
A druggie needs a reason to get clean or wants to be clean. Kim is not living on the street or a hut, has no worries about losing her home, or her kids, or having to beg/steal for drug money. Kim life has been ok using drugs.
Kim probably was using for years before anyone had a clue.
Kim has probably been using for years and everyone knew. She is surrounded by enablers.
Exactly. I’m sure no one in her family is surprised by this.

No offense meant to you but that reads like a American Cancer Society report on one brand they found. Many Eciggs are nicotine only in the vape. The battery part contains accelerants but you don’t inhale that. As a fomer smoker who quit using Eciggs I don’t like the scare tatics that are out there until a full AMA report comes out.
I feel much better and it is because of Eciggs.
Hmmm well wow!! Kim never ceases to amaze! I can’t even imagine her submitting willingly to a urine or blood sample! I can’t believe Brandi took her boys to see her! She must be super close to the boys right? Wow Brooke says kim is the best mom she could ask for! Wow wow wow!
I’m sorry. I’m being insensitive and stupid. I’m not going to comment again for awhile. I need a break from Bravo and drama for awhile. Still love this blog.
She’s a huffer?!?! Remember there was an episode when she sprayed air freshener in her mouth and Kyle said ‘kim that’s air freshener’ and she insisted it was breath spray? I think I will go back and watch that again
OMG… You refreshING my memory. I totally forgot about her “revealing” that as a “joke.” But too bad the joke was actually probably true.
Is toluene found in “whip-it’s”? I think I remember reading (on this blog?) something about the housewives doing them…
NO whippits are Nitrous oxide. Well, at least that is what they are supposed to be. If you are huffing a whip cream can, it’s nitrous. If you are huffing a balloon, you really have no idea what you are inhaling.

O M F G lying liar. I’m always shocked at how far addicts will go. This is pathological and her friendship with Brandi now makes perfect sense. Got a bad feeling on this.
Does anyone remember when kim was in the limo with her drug dealer and pulled out that baggie from her purse in mock surprise and acted like she had no idea what it was, and rhetorically asked if it was poop? I mean, that was clearly heroin – it was a pretty landmark situation and hardly anyone mentions it.
I feel like I’ve had an epiphany of the worst kind.
Millions of people across america literally watched a disheveled, confused Kim Richards mutter to herself, repeatedly fix her bra strap, crawl around on the bathroom floor looking through various baggies and the hotel safe clearly fucked up on multiple substances with a paranoid, codependent drug-boyfriend all while a camera man just sat there filming it.
Afterwards, the producer of the show, who built his career off exploiting women and now has a nightly talk show where he pretends to be silly and giggly and faux confused with his little titled head did a PR interview after this was all sold as entertainment – like a week out of rehab – and ever since she’s been getting stoned, drunk, blitzed and just continuously fucked up. And now everyone talks about how much they hate her, and people tweet her horribly nasty things.
The world is a weird fucking place.
Man that just was like a slap across my face. Who is worse? Andy or the women who participate?
Andy.
Well said — the world IS fucking weird. It’s easier to point the finger outside, at others, than to look at ourselves. We let a lot of ugly shit slide, as long as it doesn’t impact our own lives. The Romans were onto something when they realized most of us are happy as long as we have our Bread and Circuses; just a tiny bit of food in the belly and a bit of violent circus to entertain and distract us.
Please do not make comments about what is in ecig juice if you don’t know what you are talking about. My son owns one of the largest ecig juice factories in the U.S. and they are made in clean rooms by trained mixers all the ingredients are USP 99.9% FG and FDA approved for food and medicine. They contain Vegetable Glycerine, Propyline Glycol, Nicotene, water and flavorings. He does not use any of the flavorings which have questionable ingredients as per OHSA regulations. The Nicotene he uses is all FDA approved and is made from vegetables, mostly potatoes. Also the amount of Nicotene in second hand “vapor” has a negligible amount of PG or VG and about the amount of Nicotene that you consume in a serving of vegetables. The VG and PG is the same as they use in asthma inhalers or nebulizers and has been proven safe for children. Some of these fear inducing ecig reports state all kinds of chemicals and metals in their testing, all false. They all refer back to one study done years ago using old Chinese juice and equipment and the tests were done for a longer time and at a higher heat than any vapor could tolerate making the parts and solder melt which released chemicals that aren’t normally in an ecig or ejuice. All the scare tactics do is keep people smoking lethal cigarettes with about 500 poisonous ingredients and money in greedy tobacco company and politicians hands. Ok, stepping off the soapbox. Thanks. She
THANK YOU. I deleted the comments you were referring to buy I appreciate your post. For some reason on these Kim Richards posts people feel the need to post all sorts of bullshit.

what a great rehab for Kim! apparently Kim arrived at the NBC Universal Upfronts yesterday.
I don’t think so
yep, I saw photos, sleeveless white dress with black lace embellishment, Kim herself

Toulene? Really? Haven’t heard of that shit since the Bicentennial. Kim is stuck there.
A 50 year old woman huffing-you can’t get much lower then that… but she will. She’s not done.
I’m also baffled why the staff in Sober Living didn’t make her face up to the lawsuit and show up in court. I can only assume she didn’t share the info with them..I wonder how much help she’s really receiving in this facility. Sober Living is generally for people who have finished a course of rehab or had a blip in their sobriety and need the support it provides for a brief stay and to get back on their feet. Kim doesn’t fit the bill.
Now she’ll add painting her house to watching the reunion episodes and reading viewers’ tweets to her activities prior to her arrest…
Toluene – sounds like a planet from Star Wars!
Hahaha!! It does! And I only know that since my kiddo is Obsessed with Star Wars
That’s pretty much where it takes you-to another planet for a few minutes and then a head-ache that can last for hours.
Wow! I would have never guessed Kim was a huffer. But it explains a lot. There was no way that “one pill for 100 percent pain” could have had her behaving the way she did on Poker Night.
I am actually shocked that she was able to drive to the hotel on that cocktail of substances. This really does not bode well for her making any kind of recovery. She has been abusing substances (and it sounds like a variety of them) for so long, that I doubt she could get clean even if she were serious about it.
TT, your prediction that she is too much of a liability for BRAVO, sounds spot on to me. Here’s hoping that Bravo sees it that way too.
This explains why Kim looks soooo bad. I’m surprised she’s alive.
Sorry TT that you have to deal with all the post. Though I do love how well you stick up for yourself and rules in the comments
I’ve always heard a person will never make a change until it gets too uncomfortable for them. No one will have to tell them. They will know and make the change. Kim has never really been in an uncomfortable enough place to make her want to change. She’s had plenty of enablers and has been able to terrorize those who have attempted to help her. With the arrest, the Dr. Phil appearance, her kids begging her to get help and the dog bite case you would think it would be uncomfortable enough. I can’t imagine anything short of a near death experience will break through her drug addled brain. Addicts profess love for their mothers, fathers, spouses, children but their love of drugs outweigh them all until that one thing opens their eyes. Hope it’s not too late for Kim but it’s not looking very likely.
That crap used to be in a bunch of Hand Sanitizer’s. You can get it with or without now. It’s in other products also. I thought of it because of a old Dr.Phil episode…the lady was walking around with Costco size bottles of Sanitizer and a bendy straw. Not sure how it metabolize’s in your blood though? I AM IN NO WAY STATING THIS IS WHAT SHE IS DOING! LoL! NOR AM I AN EXPERT ON THE MATTER.
After trying to advocate for my elementary students to stop people from saturating growning kids in chemicals multiple times a day and failing. I finally told people I was allergic to hand sanitize and traded all mine out for soap. My kids was their hands with plain soap. The tables were wiped down with Lysol at the end of the day and with a damp paper towel in the morning, same for the door knobs. I had a very high attendance rate. But that was all recorded on my permanent record. “Doesn’t allow the po churren to use hand sanitizer.””

Smart woman! I would have loved working with you
Gotta love all the expert information on drug addiction. Just because toluene was in her system doesn’t mean she was intoxicated on it while driving. She could have done it 3-4 days prior.
The DUI won’t be in an issue. Because. It never happened. Only get to play armchair cop on that one. You are so right though!
I only mean that Kim admitted to D&D but didn’t get pulled over for it. Thought I would clarify
Alright. Confession time. When I was about 16 (I’m 33 now) I turned to drugs to not deal with the things going on at home. I tried huffing, only it was rubber cement and out of a paper bag. I did it with a few friends, and one of them totally went crazy. It was scary. We thought he may have had to go to the hospital. I’ve never done it again after watching his reaction (it didn’t do that to me, plus my mouth tasted like rubber cement, gross). But now that this has come out about Kim, her actions to remind me of that boy. That was not the scariest thing I ever tried, but the reaction to that was the scariest I’ve ever seen. I’ve also known a lot of paint hackers (it was a BIG thing when I was a teenager) and they were all totally spaced out, incoherent, had spells of just passing out with very shallow breathing…. Now Kim’s behavior really makes sense. Thank God that I never really liked anything other than pot, so I never had to deal with kicking that kind of habit. Now I’m a momma and don’t do anything but have a couple drinks now and then. Would still rather smoke pot than drink, but that’s neither here nor there. Just wanted to share a personal experience with huffing
My SIL was featured on one of the most infamous Intervention episodes several years ago. She looked great at the end and showed her natural amazing talents as an artist. Sadly she didn’t stay sober. She has no concern for anything other than feeding her addictions. I hope Kim can get the help she needs.
Wow, you experienced a Kim Richards time warp !! All those emails on already-covered news. Weird.
I love this blog, but rarely comment. I have a question so I am hoping it’s ok that I ask here because of how well researched your articles are…I am wondering if Kim’s pending charges will prevent her from entering Mexico?
That might be her rock bottom…if she’s not allowed to leave the country..
It shouldn’t be an issue. Her charges are all misdemeanors
