Fox's Jarrett Released From Dependency Treatment Just Before Intoxication Arrest

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on May 23, 2014 · Flag

AP has some new details about the arrest of Fox News' Gregg Jarrett. He may have taken a drug that didn't mix well with alcohol - or should not have been taking at all. It appears he should not have been drinking either because a police report indicates he had just been released from an alcohol and drug rehab facility.

An AP report on Huffington Post reveals details from the police report of Jarrett's arrest at a bar inside the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport:

The bar employee told police Jarrett seemed very intoxicated after just one drink. Jarrett allegedly told another customer he'd taken medication before his flight, but he denied that when questioned by police. He told police he'd been drinking vodka since 9 a.m., the report said.

...Officers found gabapentin pills in his pocket. A search of Jarrett's bag showed he was just released from an alcohol and chemical dependency treatment facility, the report said.

Gabapentin is approved for treating seizure disorders and pain that occurs after shingles, though it is prescribed for a number of other reasons. Side effects can include drowsiness, dizziness and loss of coordination.

Jarrett is scheduled to appear in court June 6.

@ Hugo S LaVia Yes, Jarrett probably heard the words “Just Say No-riega” instead. Don’t forget: the Reagan administration was VERY CHUMMY with former Panamanian dictator and drug dealer Manuel Noriega primarily because of his VERY STAUNCH anti-communist stance and his help in their proxy war against the Marxist Sandinista regime in Nicaragua. Here’s a link that backs this up:

Fresh out of rehab to drinking on the plane and in the airport bar. Rehab didn’t due the trick to whatever is eating up Jarrett.

I guess he didn’t hear Nancy say “Just Say No.”

@truman: That would entail Fox News even acknowledges this. I haven’t seen them mention this, just to scream a “media’s attacking us!” conspiracy.

Which I find odd… They’ve defended every other one of their names that got arrested, why so quiet about Jarrett? Or is it just not being posted to the site yet?

We hope former Fox “News” Major Garrett takes Jarret away from these dirty frauds, and gets him hired somewhere else.

Since Garrett left this hideous “news” channel, he exposed this frauds’ tactics.

The suit behind this horrid network is evil, conniving and treacherous.

Jarrett’s personal failing is Obama’s fault. I am waiting for Fux Noise to fill in the details.

Not many people beat alcohol the first time. I hope he keeps trying and I hope he makes it.
