A magistrate on Monday deferred sentencing rock singer Pete Doherty on a string of drug offences, although the Babyshambles frontman could still be jailed for up to six months.Doherty, 27, who some tabloid newspapers continue to link romantically with model Kate Moss, was told at Thames Magistrates Court in east London to appear again on December 4, according to media reports.The singer had pleaded guilty on August 18 to four charges of possessing class A drugs including heroin and cocaine and one charge of possessing cannabis.He had been arrested in April, just hours after receiving a community order for previous drug offences.Doherty had been released on bail on condition he check into a health clinic and observe a night-time curfew.Monday’s sentencing was deferred to give him more time in the clinic.
