Gov Paterson Admits to Coke Use

New New York Gov David Paterson isn’t finished at the Confessional. During an interview with NY1 Paterson said he’d tried cocaine a number of times as well as smoked some reefer but those days are behind him.

Dominic Carter: You have?

David Paterson: Yes

Dominic Carter: Marijuana?

David Paterson: Yes

Dominic Carter: Cocaine?

David Paterson: Yes

Dominic Carter: You used cocaine governor?

David Paterson: I’d say I was 22 or 23, I tried it a couple of times, yes.

Dominic Carter: When is the last time that — is that the only time you’ve tried cocaine, governor?

David Paterson: Yeah, around that time, a couple of times and marijuana, probably, when I was about 20. I don’t think I’ve touched marijuana since the late 70s.

The truth may hurt but thats not stopping the Gov from cleaning out his closet before political foes do a total spring cleaning of his secrets.
