Keith Richard, Rolling Stones lead guitarist, was convicted at Aylesbury Crown Court of possessing cocaine and fined 1275. The jury found him not guilty of possessing S and LSD. The case stemmed from a May 19 search of his Bentley after it veered off the road into a field. Prosecution said cocaine was in a silver tube attached to a necklace and LSD traces were on folded paper in his jacket, while Richard claimed the band's items are communally owned and he had no knowledge of the drugs.
