He was found in possesion of drugs whilst he was last at court. The judge is convinced that Pete wasn't taking the mickey out of the justice system but had forgot he had the heroin on him. Oh that's ok then.

What 's the point of sending someone like him to prison ?

apparently drugs are rife in prison.

Wouldn't it be better to get him to agree to a course of remedial treatment at a secure institution ?

He deserves another chance, just misunderstood and probably from a broken home. We should throw a lot more love at him and it will all be OK ?

abit; there is no such thing as a "nice bit of bird". It effects different people in different ways. none of which any of them would describe as "nice."
A complete waste of tiem banging him up, just let him ruin his own life IMO.

The press coverage this idiot gets for one with so little talent is absolutely astonishing. Surpassed only by that dead Essex airhead from Big Brother. At least if they locked him up we wouldnt hear about him for a bit and that can only be a good thing.

what's the point in locking someone up when they don't hurt anyone and earn loadsa cash and so pay loads of tax? Better to give him a whopping fine to pay for rehab for some other addict.
Report Prima Donna • January 28, 2010 12:03 PM GMT
evski,Why should his taxes pay for someome elses rehab?The law is the law for anyone so why is he not answerable to it like the rest of us?In this country its not what you do its who you know!Personally I think he is a tw@t of the first order.
Report Facts • January 28, 2010 12:06 PM GMT
i agree
Report evski • January 28, 2010 12:22 PM GMT
You don't know the fella, sho what if he likes to get wasted? He may well be the biggest tw@t in britain but the law does not state that a person has to go to jail for posession, only that it is an option. You say he gets treated better for being famous but how many times would he have been caught if he were an ordinary fella? No where near as many i suspect.

"The law is the law" is a line for thoughtless morons. "what is the purpose of this law?", " What would be the effect for doherty of incarcerating him?" and "willl Britain be better off if we do lock him up" these are the questions that we should be asking. Blindly following rules is for computers and idiots.

Banging him up will prevent a lot of pain and suffering for others, as he will be nowhere near a recording studio.

Report d13phe • January 28, 2010 6:42 PM GMT
was he not found with heroin going to court for a drugs charge?
Report budvar • January 28, 2010 7:17 PM GMT
No, it was a driving offence.

How times have changed, in the good ole days he would have had a proper musician for a cell mate - January 7th 1980, Hugh Cornwell of The Stranglers was fined £300 and sentanced to 3 months in prison for pocession of small amounts of Heroin, Cannabis, LSD, Speed and Cocaine. First offence. His appeal failed and in March that year he spent 8 weeks in Pentonville Prision.

The powers that be has it in for The Stranglers and 'punks' in general. It seems Doherty is simply regarded as a bit of a prat who isn't worth wasting cell space on.
