And so we go into the pop courts. Libertine Pete Doherty has been warned he could go back to jail after pleading guilt to possessing an offensive weapon. Having missed one court hearing, Doherty yesterday made it to court to plead guilty to carrying a four inch flick knife last Jun. Doherty's legal people say the singer had bought the knife legally for a friend while on holiday but had not given it to him when he was stopped by police in Jun - they stress the singer had no intention of ever using the knife as a weapon. Doherty will now return to court early next month for sentencing.
