. (antiMusic) The Teflon Junkie strikes again! Serial drug offender and occasional quasi rockstar Pete Doherty has once again walked out of a court room instead being placed behind bars. The BBC has the report: Pete Doherty has been handed a suspended prison term for drugs and motoring offences.

Doherty had previously admitted driving while uninsured and with no MoT while in possession of crack cocaine, heroin, ketamine and cannabis. [note: MoT is the Ministry of Transport test which certifies that the car is roadworthy.]

He was sentenced to four-months in jail - suspended for two years - at West London Magistrates' Court on Friday. The 28-year-old was also given an 18-month supervision order and a 12-month drug rehabilitation order. - more on this story
