    Her mother had a shop that sold figurines and the like - Nicole may have been a partner in that, but I'm not sure. I never heard anything about Nicole getting married.

    Right, she was a partner with her mother at that shop. I had heard that Nicole was engaged at one point, but to my knowledge, she was never married.

    48 Hours has a news story up. Wouldn't be surprised if this doesn't make one of their hour long shows in the future.

    This is horrible. Nicole was so gifted as a skater. And to be on the upper end of a Meth ring, I do not even have words. Courts do not take charges of this nature lightly and if she is convicted her punishment is going to be harsh. I hope she gets it together

    not a child

    Nicole is a 32 year old adult who has continued to make poor choices. These choices are her own. She should be punished according to her lawless ways and not based on the fact that she could skate when she was a child. This woman does not understand that she must answer to authority. She apparently has a lack of morals & ethics, and she does not care what she does to other people. If she sold drugs for profit who did she sell them to? Children? What a bad role model she is.

    What a disappointment, but as someone said not a surprise. Facing up to 10 years in prison, not the best thing to look forward too.

    As posted on another board, I agree that it's vile, but I have to disagree that it's murder. The motive is profit, not murder. The addicted person had a choice, and they chose to purchase and use the addictive substance. You could make the same argument about a cigarette vendor - they sell a highly addictive substance that kills many, many people. So what if it's more slowly? A lot more people have nicotine addiction, and many of them are eventually killed by it. Societal hypocrisy.

    Personally I think both are disgusting. And whenever anyone asks me "pick me up a pack of cigarettes" - I refuse. If they want to kill themselves with addiction, they have to do it themselves. I won't be a participant.

    That mugshot is just....something else. She looks worse than being rode hard and put up wet, if there is such a thing. I wonder if any of this has taught her any much needed lessons or is she too far gone to change her life now? This is beyond sad.

    Based on Nicole's mugshot, I'd have to say that it looks like she's been using too...that's what meth does to you. Destroys you inside and out.
