The most vocal accuser of Harvey Weinstein, Rose McGowan, has bigger problems and now she’s raising her voice about some trouble she’s in with the law. She’s also not being shy about it, instead amplifying her outspokenness with a sprinkling of profanity. Here’s an example of an early tweet:

She was apparently referencing what a Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police Department spokesman told Deadline was a felony charge against her. That charge apparently involves some of her personal items left behind at Dulles International Airport on Jan. 20 after she flew in from Los Angeles—items cops say contained traces of drugs. “Her personal belongings … tested positive for narcotics,” says MWAA rep Rob Yingling.

Yingling went on saying that airport cops have been given a bench warrant for McGowan and that it has been plugged into “a national law enforcement database.”

The AP notes the MWAA received the warrant on Feb. 1, and cops say they’ve been trying to touch base with McGowan since so they can get her to make an appearance in Loudon County, Va., to answer the charge.

The Washington Post notes that while McGowan hasn’t clarified who the “they” is in the alleged silencing attempt, others are piling onto the conspiracy, with one radio host calling it “shockingly transparent retaliation.”

Writer Ashlee Marie Preston even suggested on Twitter that headlines about McGowan’s arrest would never have emerged had McGowan taken the $1 million in hush money she alleges Weinstein offered her. The outspoken actress retweeted that comment with her own one-word response: “FACT.”

Naturally, these allegations make little sense, given the offense likely occurred early in the year, and the warrant was issued in February, well before she became famous by accusing Weinstein of sexual harassment.
