Can't stand you now

Pete Doherty escaped jail today, receiving just a fine for taking 13 wraps of heroin into court with him. Oh COME ON!

I mean- bloody hell, what does this guy have to do to get sent down?

He was arrested just before Christmas in the corridors of Gloucester Crown Court when the drugs (wait for it) "fell out of his pocket".

The judge said:

"Either this was sheer stupidity or a ploy to get more publicity."

Whatever it was it clearly wasn't enough to get him sent down. Instead he got let off with a fine of £750 with £85 costs.

His defense? Well since you asked nicely:

"He was not 'Mickey taking', he had just forgotten the drugs were in one of his many coats."

Now I'm no drug addict (apart from love, baby) but if there's one thing an addict NEVER forgets, it's where the stash is.

I'd quite like a normal, none famous person to do this in court and see what happens. I suspect they should probably prepare for it by having a pair of tits tattooed on their back.

  • Ha! That's a good one! LoL! Pete is a complete twatt! What was in his head - he's insane - bringing heroin in the court! :-o Apparently he is back in one of the Utah Drug Rehab centers. Maybe this time he'll get clean for good!

  • If he's with a record label, surely they should be dropping him by now in the same way other people are, ie that idiot golfer and his sponsors. I think he should be punished by going on that celeb dancing thing on the bbc.

  • His face is like a potato. He frightens me. He's a talking King Edward with an out of tune three string guitar and a strange little voice. He needs to get in a fight with Ronan Keating and lose. That would see to his cult fucking status.

    Poet? Are the nation's youth absolutely fucking mad? What happened to Byron? He was a junkie pain in the arse but at least he could write.

  • Are you telling me that I can practically get arrested for burning a spliff in my own home yet this poached egg of a man drops heroin in court and waltzes off with a fine? Someone close to him knows someone in the system. It's a fucking joke.

  • But, you guys, I don't think anyone actually *does* look up to him any more. I mean, it started going downhill when he left the Libertines, and then Babyshambles were totally rubbish, and I think he's lost most of his fanbase. So, nobody really regards him as a genius any more, but Slug's probably right; the music press would bum on about "wasted talent" and "what a shame" and "blah blah blah" if he did snuff it. So I'm holding out hope for prison or Iceland.

  • Believe. The best thign that could happen would be for him to lose his music income somehow and then, being the dirty desperate smack head that he is, he'd be forced to "sell out" and end up endorsing a £5 chinese platter for Iceland. That way the fucking morons that look up to him would realise that he is in fact just a dirty little junkie shitrag and not some kind of spiritual poet leader.

  • The problem with that is that he will instantly become a martyr for the disaffected youth of today. Far be it for me to cast apersions on his musical talent (personally I think he's fucking useless and the noise reminds me of two LSD addicted monkeys I saw having violent sex in an oil drum, very strange, but don't ask), but if he drops dead whilst overloaded with heroin, various sections of the music press will elevate him to the pantheon of the 'tortured genius' who was tragically taken before his time. Me, I think his time was up years ago and a nice long spell in chokey getting roasted by a bunch of deeply twisted murderers and sadists would just about make up for the musical torture he's unleashed on everyone.
