It turns out the Sin City prosecutor who handled Paris Hilton's and Bruno Mars' respective coke arrests last year has a little problem himself.

Clark County Deputy District Attorney David Charles Schubert was busted Saturday on possession of--wait for it--cocaine.

What happens in Vegas is hypocrisy, apparently.

Per the police report obtained by E! News, the 47-year-old prosecutor was stopped in his car Saturday by a police officer around 4:51 p.m. after the patrolman suspected Schubert was involved in a drug transaction with a street dealer.

Schubert was immediately booked into jail on felony possession, according to jail records, and is now suspended pending an investigation, but is expected to lose his job.

We've a feeling Hilton and Mars are experiencing some schadenfreude about now.

Then again, perhaps Schubert, who ran a federal drug task force, might have been sympathetic to the celebs since he allowed them to get out of their jams and avoid the slammer with separate plea deals.
