invisible_r Posted February 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 from the bbc website n a statement to the press, Michael said that the incident was his "own stupid fault, as usual". The singer, who was bailed to appear at a police station next month, said he had "no complaints" with the police. He said: "I was in possession of class C drugs which is an offence and I have no complaints about the police who were professional throughout." Michael said his experience of the media meant that he knew exactly what treatment awaited him over the next week. He said: "I have been through enough in 24 years of dealing with the media to know what I am in for from them this week. "Much of it will be inaccurate or simply untrue. I can handle that, it is my own stupid fault, as usual." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
