Possibly....they're both a couple of hillbillies, and you know what they say about hillbillies!!!!! http://www.cnn.com/2004/LAW/04/05/people.love.reut/index.html Police: Courtney Love admitted taking painkiller Tuesday, April 6, 2004 Posted: 6:45 AM EDT (1045 GMT) Courtney Love's lawyer wanted her statements to police thrown out. LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- Rocker Courtney Love appeared intoxicated when arrested last October on suspicion of drug use and told police that she had taken the painkiller OxyContin, one of the officers testified Monday. The officer, who with a partner found Love outside her ex-boyfriend's home in the middle of the night last October, said during a pretrial hearing in the case that the 39-year-old singer also admitted breaking windows of the house. Officer Scott Blackman said Love had symptoms of intoxication that included "slow, slick, slurred speech and mucous around both nostrils." Love's pupils were also dilated to 8 millimeters, nearly double the average size, Blackman said, and her pulse was 126 beats per minute, much faster than normal. "She was off-balance. She couldn't stand on her own," Blackman said. "She had to lean on the police car." Love, the widow of late grunge rocker Kurt Cobain, is also charged with disorderly conduct. She did not attend the hearing, at which her attorney Michael Rosenstein asked a judge to toss out a urine test and other evidence against her, including her statements to police. Rosenstein argued that the officers didn't have good cause to question Love about the drugs she may have taken because she wasn't driving and her ex-boyfriend didn't want her arrested. "It's very clear, quite frankly, that this was a witch hunt against my client. She's a very high-profile person," he said. But Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg refused to throw out the evidence, siding with prosecutors who said that officers investigating one crime can pursue their concerns if they suspect a different offense. She ordered attorneys for both sides back to court on April 13 to prepare for trial. Love, former front woman for the rock band Hole, also faces charges of illegal possession of prescription painkillers in a separate case in Beverly Hills. Last month, she was arrested in New York after throwing a microphone stand into a nightclub audience and hitting a man on the head.
don't forget her(Kelly Osbourne) brother Jack, he was in rehab a year before his sister. OxyContin, otherwise known as Hillbilly Heroin, is on the rise. I only heard about it a month ago, I guess I didn't realize this was the drug Rush was abusing. it is becoming a pandemic, much like the crystal meth pandemic going through Hollywood and new York
I wonder if she gave any of those to David Letterman, his eyes must be hurting after seeing that so many times.
Hillbilly heroin makes people related? Back in the 30's, mar1juana was known as poor man's whiskey. I believe it was Robert Mitchum who travelled the country during the depression with train hopping hobos and they'd toke up. I could be wrong on exactly who it was.
looks accurate to me... from imdb.com ...Born to a railroad worker who died in a train accident when Robert was two... ...An early contempt for authority led to discipline problems, and Mitchum spent good portions of his teen years adventuring on the open road. On one of these trips, at the age of 14, he was charged with vagrancy and sentenced to a Georgia chain gang, from which he escaped... ...His star ascended rapidly, this despite a brief prison term for mar1juana usage in 1949, which seemed to enhance rather than diminish his "bad boy" appeal... "The only difference between me and my fellow actors is that I've spent more time in jail." - Robert Mitchum
