Title: Court Dismisses Drug Charges Against Singer Post by: jarmo on July 13, 2005, 07:15:42 AM A Pasadena court commissioner Tuesday dismissed a drug case against Scott Weiland, the former lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots and current frontman for Velvet Revolver, because he has completed a rehab program under Proposition 36.
The 37-year-old rocker, who was charged in May 2003 with possessing heroin and cocaine, faced up to three years in prison, Deputy Dist. Atty. John Harrold said. But the voter-passed law permits petty drug offenders such as Weiland to undergo treatment instead of jail. http://www.latimes.com/news/local/state/la-me-briefs13.1jul13,1,4274942.story?coll=la-news-state /jarmo Title: Re: Court Dismisses Drug Charges Against Singer Post by: Judge Dredd on July 13, 2005, 10:07:48 AM I hope Scott keeps this up. : ok:

Its probably easier to stay clean while facing 3 years in prison once the piss tests stop will he be able to keep it up? I sure hope so. Title: Re: Court Dismisses Drug Charges Against Singer Post by: Guns N RockMusic on July 14, 2005, 10:58:09 PM Congratulations to Scott. I think he'll keep clean knowing how heroin can destroy his family and his promising future in VR. I can't wait for VRs new album and this only furthers my belief that Slash and Co. have a good thing going for the long run.
