Every Rose Has It's Thorn

Last night's post, I had vented about something without really saying what it was entirely. I am over it now though. I will not be suprised if anyone could really understand it. I really wanted to delete it here, but since I don't think you can, I just crossed it out. lol!

Anyways, have  you heard the news about Rikki Rockett (best known as the drummer to Poison)? He was actually picked up for a rape warrent on Monday. The story is LOCATED HERE!
Here is what is being said:
PHILADELPHIA, Miss. - Poison drummer Rikki Rockett was arrested on a rape warrant and his case was turned over to the district attorney's office for possible grand jury consideration, officials said Friday.
 
Rockett, 46, was arrested Monday at or near Los Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles police said. He was booked and released, and was awaiting an extradition decision by Mississippi prosecutors.
A woman in Mississippi filed a complaint that she was raped on Sept. 23, 2007, at the Silver Star Casino, Neshoba County sheriff's investigator Ralph Sciple said.
"The subject, Rikki Rockett, forcibly had sex with an adult in one of the hotel rooms," according to a complaint.
Sciple said the woman contacted authorities several days after the alleged attack. He did not discuss details of the case, but said his office believed the woman's complaint warranted review by the district attorney.
The casino-hotel complex in Philadelphia, about an hour northeast of Jackson, is owned by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians.
Rockett, whose real name is Richard Ream, did not have a listed number in the Los Angeles area and could not be reached Friday for comment.
Rockett was booked into the Los Angeles County jail under his stage name and released early Tuesday, according to jail inmate information on the county sheriff's Web site. Sciple said there was no immediate attempt to bring Rockett back to Mississippi and a decision on extradition would await action by the district attorney.
Rockett and singer Bret Michaels founded Poison, the glam-metal band with a string of hits in the 1980s, including "Talk Dirty to Me."

I agree with Angie. Unless she has a witness, this will be hard to prove. And why did she wait so long to bring charges? Sounds like another Kobe Bryant deal to me.

For some reason, I am always a little incredulous about these kinds of charges against famous people. I realize that they can do such things, but I wonder why they would have to?? I would think availability of sex would be no problem.
