Phil Rudd in serious trouble

2014-11-06 by Jordan M. EMERITUS | 46 Comments
AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd has been charged with serious allegations in New Zealand. According to Court Documents, Rudd is believed to be in the possession of large amounts of marijuana and methamphetamine, along with attempting to procure murder. The allegations echo a similar however less serious offense in 2008 when Rudd was acquitted of possessing small amounts of marijuana.

Phil Rudd released Head Job earlier this year. Whether or not these new allegations will impact his career remains to be seen- he was recently absent from both a video shoot for 'Play Ball' and a promo shot for Rock Or Bust.

"Rudd is believed to be in the possession of large amounts of marijuana and methamphetamine,
along with attempting to procure murder"

I love how "attempting to procure murder" is written as an afterthought to drug possession... priorities.

Well of course. I imagine it would be quite hard to have to act like a normal and and caring person for a change

Also wow, a stuff link on Sputnik. I've seen it all

It'd be hilarious if quirky everyman Paul Rudd were arrested for drug possession and putting a hit out on someone.

"The charges have been dropped."

He's still being charged with threatening to kill and drug possession but the charge of attempting to procure murder has been dropped due to lack of evidence. Really weird story all around.

My cousin went out with one of his daughters. She was a bit insane makes sense though considering the
father.

Also it's good to know others understand the feeling of posting a comment one day into the past.
