CSI: Crime Scene Investigation star Gary Dourdan may see what life is like for the criminals his character puts away each week now that the actor has formally been charged with three counts of felony drug possession.

The actor was arrested on April 28 when a patrol officer spotted his vehicle parked on the wrong side of the road, with Dourdan asleep in the driver's seat. After observing him to be "disoriented and possibly under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs," the officer searched the car and found prescription pills, drug paraphernalia, cocaine, heroin and ecstasy. He was arrested and posted bail five hours later.

Following an investigation, People Magazine reports that the Riverside County District Attorney's office has charged Dourdan (under his real name: Robert Gary Durdin) with one count each of possessing heroin, cocaine and ecstasy.

Will the soon-to-be former CSI star go to prison? Probably not since California offers a drug-diversion program. Riverside District Attorney spokesman Michael Jeandron states that, "upon successful completion of such a drug-treatment program, the charges could be dismissed."

Dourdan is scheduled to be arraigned on May 28.
