Olympic skiing legend Bode Miller arrested on drug charges — days before anniversary of daughter’s death

Olympic skiing legend Bode Miller is facing two misdemeanor drug charges after an arrest in Idaho earlier this month — days before the eight-year anniversary of his daughter’s drowning death.

Miller, 48, was charged with one count of possession of a controlled substance and one count of possession of drug paraphernalia following a June 6 incident, TMZ reported, with the skiier being found with 4.1 grams of psilocybin, commonly known as hallcinogenic mushroom, per a police affidavit obtained by the outlet.

The former Team USA skiing star was later released after posting a $5,000 cash bond and has pleaded not guilty to both charges.
