So, it's possible that Pete Doherty may finally be sent to jail later today, though it's equally possible that he'll escape completely free once again, depends which way the phone in vote goes. Oh no, hang on, depends which way the judge rules.
This relates to that incident in May when he was charged with possession of Class A drugs in central London. At his initial hearing for that charge (which wasn't ruled upon by his usual judicial friend, the rather lenient Judge Jane McIvor at Thames Magistrates Court) sentencing was suspended with a decision to simply monitor Pete's behaviour.
Alas, two weeks later he was arrested again, after being found in possession of drugs shortly after the V Festival. As previously reported, that particular case didn't go to court because police failed to file the papers in time, but it is unclear what affect the incident will have on the judge's decision regarding sentencing for the May incident, though at the time Judge Davinder Lachlar did say: "if he [Doherty] does not show motivation [to quit the drugs], it's prison - simple as that".
