Charges dropped against Boy George
'06
Boy George looks haggard as he heads to New York Criminal Court to face drug charges. Police found 13 bags of cocaine in George’s apartment after responding to a burglary call in October, 2005. George initially claimed the drugs weren’t his and that lots of people were in and out of his apartment.
Today George pled guilty though, and charges were dropped on the condition that George enters rehab and does some community service:
Singer Boy George pleaded guilty on Wednesday to falsely reporting a burglary and was sentenced to five days of community service and fined $1,000, but drug possession charges against him were dropped.
At a brief hearing in Manhattan Criminal Court, the singer appeared to receive his sentence and was ordered to attend a drug rehabilitation program.
Here are pictures of George outside the courtroom. Three more after the jump.
