London
(ANI):
English
musician
Pete
Doherty
was
let
out
of
prison
on
May
06,
much
to
the
dismay
of
anti-drug
campaigners.
Doherty,
who
had
been
imprisoned
for
failing
to
turn
up
for
court
drug
tests,
was
given
a
14-week
sentence
of
which
he
served
only
29
days.
"They
should
have
made
an
example
of
him,
not
let
him
go," The
Sun
quoted
ex-Flying
Squad
chief
John
O'Connor
as
saying.
Wilfred
Emmanuel-Jones,
Tory
candidate
for
nearby
Chippenham
was
not
very
happy
that
Doherty,
who
had
got
back
to
his
home
in
Marlborough,
Wilts,
was
released
early.
"It
sends
the
wrong
message
that
he
is
released
early," he
said.
The
Babyshambles
star
had
left
London's
Wormwood
Scrubs
at
7am,
hitching
a
ride
home
from
jail,
as
his
manager
did
not
turn
up.
The
singer,
who
had
left
the
prison
with
a
certificate
saying
he
had
passed
drug
tests
and
adding:
"Well
done",
was
asked
what
he
planned
to
do
next.
"Have
a
rum
and
coke
and
see
my
cats,"
he
replied.
The
certificate
certifying
him
as
being
drug
free
is
a
little
hard
to
believe
especially
when
The
Sun
had
photographed
him
with
drugs
in
his
cell
and
revealed
that
he
injected
heroin
in
the
jail
detox
unit.
Meanwhile,
Doherty's
ex-girlfriend
36-year-old
Lisa
Moorish
has
told
him
that
he
has
to
buy
her
a
home
or
she
won't
let
him
see
their
5-year-old
son
Astile.
