CNN Reporter Richard Quest Busted With Drugs

If you are familiar with CNN, the name Richard Quest might give you a ring. CNN International reporter and hosts of “Business Traveller” and “Quest”, Richard Quest, 46, was arrested around 3:40 A.M. last Friday on Central Park. According to the police he was in possession of a controlled substance, Methamphetamine that was on his pocket. What’s so interesting in this arrest was he was in possession of a sex toy hidden in his boots and a rope was tied around his neck that was tied to his genitals. Isn’t that bizarre? I never thought a CNN personality would even act like that.

Judge Anthony Ferrera told Richard Quest that if he attends six months of counselling and therapy, his case would be dismissed. Incompliance to his counselling and therapy, Quest will be back on court. The judge allowed Quest to leave without posting any bail. Counsel of Quest told that his client wasn’t aware that there’s a curfew in the park.

When I watched the news last night on CNN even this morning, the news about Richard Quest wasn’t even mentioned. What holds the future of Richard Quest? I still believe in second chances. I just hope CNN will do the same thing.
