Michael Lyon's Drug Arrest Latest Step In Descent Of Real Estate Mogul Who Recorded Prostitutes
SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Years after Michael Lyon first went to jail for secretly filming sex acts in his home, the former head of Lyon Real Estate is back in custody again.
Lyon was booked on felony drug and eavesdropping charges on Wednesday afternoon.
His mugshot shows his descent from the controlled eliteness on display after his 2010 arrest to his new arrest—blood-shot eyes, sores on his nose and lip, and hair wildly uncombed.
The multimillionaire, once the center of Sacramento high society, is back in jail after the Sacramento County Probation Department says it found methamphetamine for sale.

Arrested along with him was Shannon Campbell, who also faces drug charges.
His arrest comes three years after his conviction of secretly recording prostitutes with him in his home, and two years after he ignored CBS13's questions regarding a $2.5 million lawsuit filed by former friends and employees whom he admitted to secretly recording.
We spoke to a family member of one of Lyon's previous victims following Wednesday's arrest.
"I think it's a pretty clear indication that there's no concern for others," she said.
