Pete Doherty

I have every sympathy for Pete or anyone in the grip of that kind of addiction because it's almost impossible to turn it around and it's desperate and nobody wants to live that way. I see people every day through my work whose lives are destroyed by these addictions and it's heartbreaking. But I just cannot get past the fact that he has done some incredibly bleeping vile things to innocent people. Most addicts will cause pain and heartbreak to their loved ones but it's not intentional, it's incidental, it's a side effect of the addiction. His tit is on another level though, I just think he's not a good person and he probably would be a bleep even if he wasn't an addict.

I've worked with chaotic drinkers/substance abusers and I agree with you. Pete's actions (even if he was off his bits on whatever drug) aren't those of a good man brought to his knees by addiction, they are the actions of someone who enjoys the power trip. His associates aren't much better. Look at how poor Alan Wass died.

While we’re at it, does anyone have any Carl tea to spill? He seems like a genuinely nice guy (don’t know about Pete)

Tbh I agree it isn’t anything to do with him. also find it rude to refer to him as Peters friend rather than use his name in the headline first
It's just a ploy to use Peter's name to sell the story. Peter and Alan were very good friends, granted, but Peter was not there and had nothing to do with his death. It would not even have made the papers if he wasn't Peter's friend.

Man, I was obsessed with Pete Doherty and The Libertines back in the day. There was something so surreal about their universe, got totally absorbed. Crazy looking back and thinking about how much it romantised hard drugs. I always thought he had a beautiful soul deep down but reading through this thread, I don't know, maybe I'm still somewhat blinded by his charm (when he's clean-ish).

@lalalanded Apologies if that was taken in reference to Mr Doherty and implying any kind of culpability.
Just a sad, grim story.
As Nancy Reagan said : “ Just say no, thank you “.

I know this is really really trivial, but the man has hobbit feet and, even worse, is wearing what look like JD Sports sliders (or maybe Decathlon or Carrefour}. Any attempt at coolness: gone gone gone. Sorry Pete...

Crikey, it’s lucky I don’t get papped on my trundle to Asda of a Sunday afternoon ( think covered myself in glue and run through a charity shop backwards chic.. ).

I agree it’s just to get people to read the story. It just seemed sad to me that all he was mentioned as was “Petes friend” I guess that’s the media though!

Look into Peter Doherty now ex Manager Andy Boyd's car crash which resulted in someone's death.......

When tangled up with these,
seems to end in the unnecessary death of a human being
