Former AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd is at it once again. This time he is deciding not to claim responsibility for violating his house arrest when recently he had booze and strippers in his home and got caught.
Rudd was given 8 months of house arrest when charged and sentenced for possessing cannabis and meth as well as threatening to kill his assistant and their family back in November. He now faces a year in prison for this violation.
Though the strippers weren't the issue, Rudd is forbidden from possessing or consuming alcohol. Since there is overwhelming evidence that he did in fact break the rules, the prosecution is moving ahead saying it is "a relatively straightforward case" according to Stuff.co.nz.
Prosecutor Anna Pollett says:
“The defendant admitted the charge to the police on his arrest. There’s very strong evidence, and the matter can proceed immediately to a judge alone hearing.”
Rudd says in a video where he is being bothered by paparazzi that he plans to focus on self-improvement and is only nervous because he is not sure what is going on.
Personally I think Rudd should just own up to what he has done because at this point the prosecution has enough evidence to lock him up. He may as well go down with at least a little bit of honor and dignity.
