George Michael: “It Was Not The Drugsâ€
Last October George Michael literally fell asleep in the middle of the intersection. In his Mercedes police found what was referred to as a “Cocktail of drugsâ€. Andrew Torrington, prosecutor of the case, said that they found antidepressants, GHB (an illegal club drug known also as liquid ecstasy) and cannabis in George Michael’s system.
Now the trial is on and George’s lawyer stepped up and said that he did not fell asleep because of the drugs in Michael’s body but because of the prescribed sleeping pills. Ok, let us get this straight. The singer had all those in his system but he did fell asleep because of the sleeping pills. One has to wonder if this is the real question here or a visible “Driving Under the Influence†case. GHB was not ingested and this is why, according to the lawyer, it could not have cause Michael to fall asleep.
The judge assigned the case was not very impressed and neither am I. George Michael did admit he did something stupid. It is time for him to pay for these mistakes.
