Fleiss, 42, was released on $1,300 bail following her morning arrest near her home in Pahrump, police say.
Nye County, Nev., deputies responded to a DUI call and contacted the onetime madam – who now runs a laundry – at 9:23 a.m.
"During the investigation she was found to have prescription narcotics on her person, not in a prescription bottle, and could produce no evidence that the prescription pain medication had been prescribed to her," police said in a press release. "She was arrested and transported to [jail]."
A male passenger in her car, identified as John Owen, 53, was also arrested for possession of marijuana and being under the influence.
