Lamar Odom could be facing a legal hurdle in Nye County, Nevada after his blood tests came back positive for cocaine.
TMZ Sports reports that the tests were administered at a Las Vegas hospital where Odom was being treated after being found unconscious at a Nevada brothel earlier this month.
Sheriff Sharon Wehrly told TMZ that her department obtained a search warrant and had the blood drawn. She added that it was "distinctly possible" that Odom would be prosecuted.
Odom is facing months of rehabilitation. He reportedly suffered multiple strokes while in the hospital. He's currently being treated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
**UPDATE** October 27
TMZ reports that the Nye County Sheriff's Department is about to turn Odom's case over to the District Attorney's office, with the recommendation that he be prosecuted for felony drug use while at Love Ranch South.
The felony charge is punishable by up to four years in prison, but it's unlikely Odom will do any time because he's a first time offender.
