addict Doherty injects drug into unconscious fan's arm


By RICHARD WHITE
Showbiz Reporter

DRUG fiend Pete Doherty stoops to a shocking new low in pictures showing him injecting heroin into an unconscious fan.
The junkie Babyshambles singer, who has won the heart of supermodel Kate Moss, was snapped jabbing the pretty youngster as she lay in his squalid kitchen.

Other pictures seen by The Sun show the rocker — who faces drugs charges — injecting himself and being helped to take drugs by a girl using her hands to form a makeshift tourniquet.

Yet another sees Doherty, 27, smoke a “crack bowl”, his tattooed and blood-stained arms betraying his addiction.

The disturbing scenes were captured by a pal at Doherty’s pad in Hackney, East London, within the last five weeks.

Scotland Yard today announced detectives are to quiz the rock star over the shocking photographs.

If that girl were my daughter lying there on the floor, Pete's fans would not have to worry about him killing himself with an overdose.
Sun Online reader Tim

Kate, 32 — who has been secretly seeing the singer despite claims they had split — was NOT present when the drug photographs were taken.

The comatose girl is from a middle-class background and idolises Doherty, often visiting him at his flat. She was left on the floor while he and his pals prepared more class A drugs for themselves.

A source said: “Doherty will self-destruct. He has no regard for his or anyone else’s safety.

“It’s one thing killing himself, but to inject a young girl as she lies on the floor is a disgrace. He should be in jail.



Self-destruct ... tattooed singer jabs a drug needle into his arm

“Kate and Pete never split up. And the longer she sees him the greater the danger of her exposure to drugs.”

Mum-of-one Kate, seen in a separate shot printed in today's Sun newspaper looking dazed and dishevelled in bed, entered rehab to escape cocaine. She claimed she finished with Doherty due to his addiction.

But pals fear she is mixing with a drug-fuelled world of depravity that could ruin her chances of staying clean.

The shot of the bleary-eyed beauty in bed is recent — and thought to have been taken by Doherty at a secret location.

Our exclusive shots will infuriate anti-drugs campaigners who wanted Doherty jailed for his open drug abuse.

The rocker is on two years’ probation after admitting seven counts of possession.

He was put on an 18-month rehabilitation order and given a six-month driving ban.

But hours after a hearing last week he was arrested on suspicion of possessing a class A drug with intent to supply and bailed pending inquiries.

Doherty is tested for drugs every month under his rehab order — but has failed twice.

At his grotty home, he has pushed used needles into his dartboard and drawn graffiti on the walls using his own BLOOD.

Past behavior notwithstanding...how does the reporter know it's heroin? "Showbiz" reporters always love those fast and shocking conclusions.

I'm all for self destruction if the person cares not for their own life, but giving H to someone already blacked on on booze just seems to sickly malicious for anyone to concieve.

Also, is this guy actually considered a "star?" I've never heard of him before two minutes ago.

Sorry, with a situation like this you cannot just discount past behavior. You see a photo like that, and you draw the most logical conclusion you can. And like Dark Helmet said, do you think he was administering insulin?? That frickin halfwit wouldn't know what to do with a diabetic.

No, but obviously, he was trying to make a blood transfusion using his own blood!

That man is THE good samaritan and you are judging him without knowing!!!

He probably saved her life for ***sakes!

look at what you can actually see, rather than what The Sun is telling you to see.

girl collapsed on floor, man holding needle that is inserted into her arm. The most important thing about that picture with regards reaching a conclusion is that you can't see whether the needle is actually being inserted, or removed.

so either (a) he is injecting an unconcious girl (as the newspaper says)

or (b) she injected herself, then gouched out, and he is removing the needle (as junkies often have to do for each other as a result of the gouching problem)

don't get me wrong, i'm all for Prison For Doherty. But the photo above does not support the conclusion in the article below it.

p.s. a needle junkie would probably be better placed than most to deal with an emergency insulin situation.

1) Some talentless hippy.

2) Government lets this prat walk around. While this prat is walking around, he's scoring H. The guy who he's scoring H off probably also has other customers. These other customers won't have as much income as the prat, so will eventually resort to stealing to feed their habit. Stealing includes trying to break into my house. The fact that this shoddy government promised to crack down on crime millions of times and they let this happen means they're lying. Which makes Uncle Doofy mad. Which makes him whine about it on this board. Which lowers the tone. Or something like that.

Good point. However, the guy is on a rehabilitation order. And has class A's in his house.

I don't care whether other people take drugs or not. But when somebody administers herion to an unconscious person, than that is a serious and despicable crime. If I were a judge and this turned out to be true, this guy certainly would not get probation for this.

TBH, That's as good a rationale for legalisation as for imprisonment!

Which would certainly be cheaper than locking addicts up, as in prison it is just as easy (perhaps easier) for them to participate in and help feed the criminal black market you describe.

I don't believe in prison for personal possession offences, unless the accused has become a demonstrable danger to people around them. Looks like Doherty may have crossed that line here though, if the Currant Bun's portrayal of the picture is correct.

And IMHO his music is a somewhat better justification for prison time than anything to do with smack!

You can walk into shops and legally buy DVD players. But people still buy nicked ones.

I've only ever heard about this ****-up because of his drugs habit and because he went out with Kate Moss. His band is secondary, he's only famous because of the controversy.

You can read the very first sentence in that "news" article and positively conclude you're not dealing with a reputable source.

Not sayin' the kid's not a dope fiend with a troubled past, but that article... Give me a break!

Riiiiiiiight.

So if you're hanging at Gisele Bundchen's house and the police question you as to whether she was doing any naughty things with drugs, what are you going to say?

1) "Yes, she was doing naughty things with drugs". No more hanging at her house because she'd be in prison and wouldn't talk to you when she came out.

2) "No officer, it was something else". Carry on hanging at Gisele's house, gain brownie points with her for lying to plod. Maybe get some hot gratitude action.

Because we know of course that jail time cures a heroin addiction.

But joking aside, if he really injected somebody else with heroin hen of course he's the asshat to end all asshats. However, there's no reason to inject somebody unconscious with drugs. If anything, heroin would have adverse effects.

So, I think that this is just The Sun at it's usual business of **** spreading.

What I first thought was, she ODd on heroin, and he may have been shooting coke into her to revive her.

I've seen one person OD on heroin once, and someone blew coke up in his nose and he came out of it.

Don't ask me...
