Darius Rucker made his first comments about a February arrest in Tennessee on misdemeanor drug charges, saying he got stopped by police after friends who were moving asked him to 'take some stuff.' The country star and 'Hootie and the Blowfish' singer spoke to Craig Melvin on TODAY on May 28 about the incident, which occurred on Feb. 1 in Williamson County, Tenn. “I went down and we handled it,” he said. “My lawyers are taking care of it. It is what it is.
'So I went down. Fifty-seven years, I’ve never seen the inside of a jail cell.' Rucker, 57, said the charges are still pending. He was booked on two counts of simple possession/casual exchange of a controlled substance and one count of a violation of the state’s vehicle registration law. Mark Puryear, an attorney for Rucker, told TODAY.com in February that the singer “is fully cooperating with authorities related to misdemeanor charges.
