President's Niece a Cokehead
[AP] Gov. Jeb Bush's 25-year-old daughter was found with cocaine at a 
rehabilitation center, police said. If confirmed, it would be her second 
lapse since entering court-ordered drug treatment. Police were called to 
the Center for Drug Free Living in Orlando late Monday, where workers gave 
them a substance they said they found on Noelle Bush. The workers told 
police that the two grams of powder tested positive for cocaine, but police 
didn't immediately arrest her because they couldn't obtain a sworn 
statement that she was in possession of cocaine.
The governor said he wouldn't discuss her situation. "This is a private 
issue as it relates to my daughter and myself and my wife," he said. "The 
road to recovery is a rocky one for a lot of people that have this kind of 
problem. I don't have any details about what happened. I just found out." 
The investigation will continue, said police. Noelle Bush was arrested in 
January at a Tallahassee pharmacy drive-through window for allegedly trying 
to buy the anti-anxiety drug Xanax with a fraudulent prescription. She was 
admitted to the treatment center a month later, with the possibility 
charges would be dropped if she completed the program. In July, she was 
found to be in contempt of court because a worker at the treatment center 
found her carrying prescription pills. A judge sent her to jail for three days.
