The Manhattan District Attorneys Office intends to charge Curtis with a misdemeanor for criminal possession that could result in a 3 month prison sentence (or less)
The spokesperson for Dell's ad agency says: "We're following the situation closely and working with our ad agency to understand what's transpired here." It would not say if the arrest means the end of Dell Boy.
