Under a plea bargain with the Wayne County Prosecutor's office, Bleeth pleaded guilty to possessing less than 25 grams of a controlled substance, cocaine, and to driving while impaired. Another possession charge was dismissed.

Attorney Sabbota stated that Bleeth had returned to Promises rehabilitation clinic. In an issue of Glamour from April 2003, Bleeth wrote a three page article entitled "Back From my Drugs Hell" about her rocky path to recovery, her drug addiction, and her struggle to remain sober. She wrote that she had a cocaine habit that was so severe that she collapsed at a photo shoot for Glamour magazine, and she went without sleep for five days at a time. She wrote that "consciously trying to stay off drugs is now part of my life and always will be." [3]
