CSI Star Denies Drugs Belonged to Him

CSI star Gary Dourdan claims the drugs he was caught with earlier this week didn't belong to him.
The actor, 41, was arrested for drug possession early Monday in Palm Springs, Calif., after police found him asleep in his car, which was parked on the wrong side of the road. When officers searched his vehicle, they found cocaine, heroin, ecstasy and other prescription drugs.
Dourdan says he was returning from the Coachella Music Festival, where he got some people into a V.I.P. section. An after-party left him "ragged," he said, so he pulled over to sleep.
"I’m glad pulling over did prevent a DUI," he said in an e-mail to Access Hollywood. "I recommend not driving at all, but a little kip [nap] is always good (on either side of the road LOL).
"I am blessed that the Sgt. realized that the luggage carrying whatever they found was not mine and that my tests have been coming back negative," Dourdan continued. "I've been happy to cooperate in any way to clear myself and go on with my blessed life."
Dourdan -- who is not returning to CSI next season -- also apologized to his fans. (He was set to present Taylor Swift with an award at Hollywood Life magazine’s 10th Annual Young Hollywood Awards last week, as CSI is one of her favorite shows.)
"I am so sorry to all my fans, especially the young ones, like Taylor Swift, who I should've been supporting with my daughter instead of driving tired in the desert," he said.
"I am planning events to get the word out that you don’t need a bunch of nasty chemicals to have a good time," he added. "Just good friends, family, good music and a good honest spirit full of faith."
He is to be arraigned May 28.

Good grief! Does he think anyone is going to be snookered by that malarkey? And does he think it even matters if his "tests have been coming back negative?" Being under the influence of a controlled substance would have been a misdemeanor... the least of his crimes. It's the unlawful possession and transportation of the controlled substances, the felony crimes, he should be worried about.

Okay, I bet none of you people, have ever even seen CSI. It is way better then Grey's. Sure, he did drugs, but doesn't everyone have flaws? Why is everyone so mean? He's still a really talented actor. :) I believe in you, Gary! :)

I suppose innocent till proven guilty means nothing to many of you. I doubt he would say the tests were coming back negative if that we untrue- especially in a public matter. Its amazing how on sooo many of these articles a vast majority of people love to see the rise and fall of celebrities. Does it make your lives seem any better?? Before jumping to tabloid reports and conclusions give the guy the benefit of the doubt- the truth will emerge eventually.

Is that the best Dourdan can come up with? Now we know why he hates being followed by the razzi. He's got to hide his habit. Pathetic...at his age and with some success ...really pathetic. It's a great way to honor your poor brother who was murdered. Kill yourself on drugs. Pathetic.
