Finally, celebrity justice has its say. After being arrested for about two million times and miraculously keeping himself out of the slammer, the planet's most infamous and scary-looking crackhead Pete Doherty is finally locked safely behind bars. Unfortunately, no one has yet realized that the best thing to be done at this crucial moment would be to simply throw away the key and forget such a man ever existed. However, Kate Moss' former lover and trouble-maker in chief will only spend 14 weeks in jail for "a variety of offenses" - the most important of which, according to Metro, is "violating his probation on a plethora of previous drug charges".

This goes to show that the long and ruthless arm of the law still has the potential to reach for Doherty, locate him in whatever remote crack den he might be hiding, pull him out by the tail and throw in the slammer. Doherty - who somehow so far managed to avoid just about any form of punishment invented by human beings and has years of drug offenses behind him - will now rest in jail for a little over three months and will have a chance to see just how hard it is to get your hands on those elusive, good-quality drugs he so craves. And on a different yet related note, isn't it strange how all the men around Amy Winehouse somehow end up in jail? Wino's incarcerated husband Blake should put together a little tutorial for Doherty, just to help him settle in and make himself at home.

The Babyshambles front man was sent to jail for breaking his probation order. Doherty was reportedly taken straight from West London Magistrates' Court, and after a 30 minute hearing was sent straight to jail. A spokesperson confirmed that the singer and notorious drug addict was locked away for "his breach of time keeping, non compliance of his order and using different drugs". Not that anyone is complaining, but doesn't this come just a tiny bit late? Doherty allegedly tried to fight his addiction on several occasions, only to end up being caught on tape relapsing on several occasions - he was even said to have gotten his pet hooked on cocaine. The fact is, 14 weeks in jail is not a lot, and if Pete is careful not to bend over for the soap, as the saying goes, there's no reason to believe his incarceration will help him kick off his addictions in any way.
