It doesn’t seem like that implant is working too well for dear Doherty. He was busted this weekend for posession of crack cocaine and pot.
Doherty’s rap sheet is lengthy and hard to keep up with, but here’s the highlights:
British newspaper The Sun reports police found Doherty in possession of crack cocaine and cannabis. After spending the night in police custody, Doherty was released on bail on Sunday (06May07). The arrest comes just three weeks after Doherty appeared in Thames Magistrates’ Court in east London, where Judge Jane MCIvor praised the singer for his determination to beat his drug habit.
Earlier reports had Pete checking into rehab on the day of his girlfriend Kate Moss’ clothing line launch at British retailer Top Shop, but he was seen bringing a large bunch of flowers to her house that day, so it was assumed that he received an implant to help him kick drugs and was released.
From what I could gather, drug implants deliver the medication naltrexone, which blocks the effects of opiate drugs including heroin and methadone. Drugs like cocaine and pot would still be effective for an implant wearer.
Here’s a revealing list of Pete Doherty’s many drug busts, bust ups and court appearances.
