MARCH
DMX - Violating his probation by using illegal drugs and not complying with his treatment plan. Brother be losing his mind up in here.
Pete Doherty - Possession of cocaine. Just like Willie Nelson Month in the states (see below), there must similarly be a Pete Doherty month in England. Dewey didn't want none of this.
Richard Finch – The former KC and the Sunshine Band man was accused of having sex with a teenage boy.
Jub Jub – The local music star is currently on trial for his involvement in a driving incident that resulted in the death of four schoolchildren.
MAY
Marion "Suge" Knight - Assault with a deadly weapon. It is unclear whether the charges were substantiated, though.
JUNE
Vince Neil – DUI... with 0.08 blood alcohol level = misdemeanor drunken driving and speeding. Dukktah FEEEELGOOOODD!!!!
Kid Cudi - Criminal mischief and criminal possession of a controlled substance. Kids these days.
JULY
Ice-T - Arrested for reportedly driving with a suspended license. The charges were later dismissed, and the incident was put down to a clerical error. O.G.
Bryan Adams – No that THAT Bryan Adams. The Color Me Badd singer was arrested in Hawaii on suspicion of harassment. Besides the music, that is.
Foxy Brown - Violating a court order by baring her buttocks while in an argument with a neighbour. Commenting on this incident is too easy.
George Michael - Drug and driving charges after crashing his car into a building. Wham!
AUGUST
Faith Evans – Stopped at a checkpoint and charged with misdemeanour drunken driving.
SEPTEMBER
Bruno Mars - Possession of cocaine. No jokes about being on another planet here. Nope. Mars.
T.I. – Possession of ecstasy, testing positive for opiates and associating with a convicted felon. Rappers associating with felons? Who knew?
NOVEMBER
Willie Nelson - Marijuana possession. Seriously, busting Willie Nelson for dagga is like a "season" in the police year. "It's Willie Nelson Month. Send in the rookie." Willie has been busted annually since '76... 1876.
DECEMBER
Phil Rudd - Cannabis possession. The AC/DC man was convicted, which potentially makes international touring and travel difficult.
Which other musicians fell foul of the law this year? Tell us.
