Rock musician Pete Doherty has pleaded guilty to five drug offenses in a London court and will remain at a rehabilitation clinic pending his next court date.
He admitted five counts of possession, including crack cocaine and heroin before the Thames Magistrates' Court Friday morning, and may face jail time, Sky News reported.
Doherty was arrested in April, only hours after being sentenced for previous drug charges. On Aug. 7, he was found to have crack cocaine and a crack pipe.
Earlier this week, it was reported former girlfriend Kate Moss was with him, but friends said she was just trying to be supportive.
Sentencing was set for Sept. 4.
