Sketchy! 
Madonna’s ex-beau, Chris Paciello, is entrenched in a battle that could turn into a multi-million dollar lawsuit.├é┬á
Sandy Sachs, Paciello’s former business partner in West Hollywood restaurant Murano, alleges that Paciello convinced a cop buddy to arrest her on fake drunk-driving charges.
It’s a little shady that the convicted murderer accomplice with ties to the mob has friends on the force!
Sachs’s lawyer, Gerson Horn, claims that Paciello harbored resentment after Sachs sued him because he failed to deliver on a $600,000 investment.├é┬á Horn says Paciello arranged for Sachs’s arrest out of revenge.
According to Horn, Paciello can be heard telling Sheriff Ralph Garay to arrest Sachs on dispatch tapes dating to April 16 of this year.  Garay, who was off-duty at the time, subsequently made the call for her arrest. 
At first, cops reported that there was “no evidence that Sandy was drunk.”├é┬á After a little more nudging from Paciello and his girlfriend, however, police went to Sachs’s home where she was arrested and, allegedly, abused:
Sachs was confronted at her home by several officers. Officer Horn says they “threw her to the ground, handcuffed and pummeled her. Her body was covered with bruises.”
A blood test confirmed that Sachs was within the legal limit and no charges were pressed at the time.├é┬á Sachs’s case accuses the LAPD of battery, wrongful arrest, and civil rights violations.├é┬á Both Paciello’s camp and the LAPD insist that there was no wrongdoing.
Maybe he should have stayed in jail longer!
