Wino Under Investigation

Filed under: Anglophilia > Drugs > Amy Winehouse

Scotland Yard started an investigation against Amy Winehouse on Wednesday.

The British authorities are looking at the video of the Rehab singer allegedly smoking crack and decide whether to pursue criminal charges against her.

Hey, even if they do, she'd probably get away with a tap on the hands.

Look at how many chances the U.K. courts have given perpetual fuck-up Pete Doherty!

why do we care? What has she done for the good of anyone else or the world? She's a junkie who has absolutely no clue on reality. No one can do anything to save her at this point. She's either going to die or decide that she actually wants a life. No one can help her except herself.

BRITISH AUTHORITIES LIKE DRUGS…DRUGS SUPPRESS EMOTIONS. EMOTIONS IN BRITAIN ARE A BAD AND FORBIDDEN THING. SO IF IT COSTS SOMEONE THEIR LIFE TO SUPPRESS THEIR EMOTIONS, SO BE IT. STIFF UPPER LIP Y'ALL!!!

What could she be charged with?….the police didn't catch her with an illegal substance.

Not that she shouldn;t be foreably taken to Rehab. Please….I miss her talents and am tired of the hysteria.

i don't get this??? you obviously have talent, money, and fame yet you prefer to look like shit and do drugs?
Get help ASAP!! Look in a "f'-in" mirror! You look like crap! Stop spending money on the crack and get a total makeover!

THE REGULAR PEOPLE,IE:NON CELEBS, WOULD GET LOCKED UP TIGHTER THAN A DRUM.BUT CELEBS NEVER GET SHIT DONE TO THEM.WHY THE DIFFERENCE?

Tape schmape. It is 'obvious' what she is doing but not proveable beyond a reasonable doubt insofar as a court proceeding is concerned. It should be mortifying for HER, causing her to know she is on her way to an early grave. When I showed my boyfreind a pic of her he just said, 'ewww.' Nuff said.

God, I hope they lock her up for good, although it's not likely.

There are tons of musicians of actual talent that give and give every single day just for an opportunity, and this whore has been handed everything on a silver platter and is just pissing it all away. She deserves none of the fame, fortune and recognition she's received. The girl is marginally talented (do you know how EASY it is for the average woman to carry a tune in that vocal range?), overhyped, and certainly does not deserve what she's been given.

Just let the has-been-but-who-knows-why rot away, and out of our way.

Prove she was smoking crack, they can't pursue shit!! Its just a video, we know she was, but prove it! Can't test a video for residue.

Hey Perez. Maybe you should be telling Britney to get well instead of Wino cuz brit ha more to live for— her two sons.

Pete Doherty has been video taped "doing" drugs while on probation multiple times so it will be interesting to see how the two similar cases will be played out.

She was in her own home - she'd never get done for it. Thankfully the U.K isn't as conservative as the U.S - Britain still has something called Freedom!

Besides, how can anyone in the U.S talk? Nicole Richie drove down the wrong side of the freeway while high & went to jail for 45 mins … Puh-leeze! The U.S justice system isn't any better & u.s law is mostly based on common British law anyway!

And stop fucking calling her a substance abuser (what white folks call their dope fiends) call it what it is a fucking crackhead.. crackheads comes in all colors not just black folks.. and it doesnt matter what type of drug you do you are still a fucking dope head… do you think it matters whether you steal a pen or trob a bank you are stil a fucking thief… damn…….

Ya know, I hadn't heard any of her music until the other day. She's an amazing talent! It's so sad that she's throwing it all away like this. With fame and money come opportunities that may not otherwise be available. It's a shame that so many talented people don't choose to say NO to the crap that's waved in front of them.

re. no.26: English common law, not British common law - completely separate legal systems and all that yeah? Idiot. But yes the American criminal justice system (and most of the political system) is totally fucked anyway.

Re: me – English common law, not 'British' common law. There is no such thing, separate legal systems and all that yeah? Idiot. But yes the American criminal justice system (and their whole political system) is completely fucked up anyway. Their constitution should be torn up all the bullshit it causes.

Damn this bitch is one scary looking dog. Nobody gives a shit less about this trainwreck.

If all they have is the 2-minute video posted on the net, it doesn't prove anything. Amy (or someone looking very like her) is seen for about a second igniting something with a cigarette lighter, which is not illegal, last time I checked.

OK, everyone assumes it was really crack (or meth), but even in New Labour Britain you can't convict someone based on mere assumptions.
USA says – reply to this

34

I presume her visa to come play for you guys in the US will once again be revoked if this charge stands, so if you wanna see her, you should keep your fingers crossed that it doesn't happen.

just me? or does Amy look A LOT like "Janice" from Friends in this pic?

Bitch is as off the rails as Britney ( with far less reason to be ) .Why don't you hack her to death you hypocrite.

37

They can't prove anything. They can't analize the contents of the pipe from a photo.
melanie says – reply to this

38

I thought you could'nt get charged unless they actually caught you in the act? She can easilly just say it was tobacco she was smoking (even though we all know it was'nt), thats why everyone has to say alleged, no one really knows what was in that pipe but her.

Investigation for what?
In her house she can smoke whatever she wants, take videos of it and even put a sign on her door " i smoke crack" and the caps or anybodyalse can do fuck all to her. In the privacy of ur own household u can do what u want!

Hi Perez; I think you out of order, I am from the UK and I think you have one rule for Wino and one for Britney!!! Wino is justy as out of control as Britney yet you always say "Get Well" to Wino and call Britney all kinds of crap….fair enough Britney has Children but think about all the people who look up to Wino the Crack Head….it's just as bad…..maybe you should bare that in mind when slagging off Britney who is clearly not well!! PS I still love you though!!!
