Pete Doherty in new drugs arrest

edited November -1 in General Discussion
London - Babyshambles lead singer Pete Doherty has been arrested on suspicion of possessing illegal drugs, just days after pleading guilty in a London court to possessing heroin and cocaine, police said on Monday.

The 26-year-old, best known for an on-off relationship with British supermodel Kate Moss, was stopped by police early on Saturday and arrested for alleged possession of class A and class C drugs.

He was also suspected of driving under the influence of illicit drugs, and has been bailed to appear at a north London police station on February 2 "pending analysis of substances" found, a police spokesperson added.

Last Wednesday, the troubled rocker pleaded guilty to possessing heroin and cocaine, and is due to reappear in court on February 8.

Doherty, who shot to fame as lead singer of The Libertines, has been in the headlines since Moss was filmed last year apparently snorting cocaine, prompting several fashion labels to sever ties with the supermodel, who turned 32 on Monday.

Police have urged Moss to return to Britain from the United States to answer questions related to the cocaine scandal, and expect to make arrests soon of other suspects in the case.

Media reports say Doherty and Moss have split up.

    Psht. Everyone has their own tastes. Mine is an aquired taste. Actually, I was just kidding. I don't really find that attractive. He might be attractive if he were cleaned up and sober. But I really couldn't say. I do want to go to Britain, though. I always have.
  • It's funny, Pete looks a lot more naked than most people do --- even when he's clothed. Like, there's something about him that makes you feel embarrassed to look at him even though he has a scarf on.

    You know what I mean?

    hmm i know what you mean. although i think i feel more embarrassed for him than anything.
  • as much as i don't completely hate Babyshambles or Pete, i think he's heading to his grave faster than he could imagine. in fact i saw a magazine article about him that said based on his lifestyle he should have died two years ago, so he's actually a lucky bastard.
  • *hopes jen reads this*


    haha if its reported in the sun and the internet it must be true =p
  • Everytime I hear something about famous people on drugs, I always end up baffled at how so many of them have kids. It's just so sad.
  • i love the libertines.

    pete is screwed, the dudes in babyshambles arent going to do anything to help pete get clean, he needs carl barat back, cause carl would kick his sorry ass if he was on drugs. so yeah, "what a waster"
  • Really, he is a waste. He has fame and talent and he's not using it to his advantage, he's just using it to screw up. It's really pathetic.
  • mmph, it's just a waste to waste your talents to rot with drugs.
