Aaron Carter Breaks Down in Tears Over Arrest, Reveals the Drugs He’s Taken
In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Aaron Carter got emotional talking about his arrest and drug use. The singer was recently arrested on charges of DUI, possession of marijuana and other drug related objects.
“Basically, I’ve been listening to America and Stevie Wonder and the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack,” he said. “Somebody said I was driving recklessly on the road, that’s what the police report said, but the alignment was off on my car, so I went to AutoZone to see if I could do anything about it. A motorcyclist reported that I was swerving all over the road, but the alignment was off a little bit on the new tire.”
He then explained how the police approached him inside the AutoZone: “[They] forcefully grabbed me out,” he claims. “[I] stepped outside. I say, ‘I invoke the right to speak to my attorney,’ and they disregarded that, they revoked that immediately. They said, ‘Is there anything illegal in the car?’ I said, ‘I have marijuana in the car.’ I kept trying to explain the whole situation, to the officer. He said, ‘You’re a professional, right? I’m a professional too, so be quiet.’ And then I said, ‘OK.'”
He added: “I’ll occasionally have a sip of a beer or something like that, but I can’t even drink IPAs. I can’t drink anything like that. I have to drink the lightest beer possible that’s not hoppy. I don’t drink any hard liquor.”
