Rikki Rockett Arrested for Rape
Bret Michaels: officially not the person with the worst morals in the band.
Rikki Rockett, the drummer for the band Poison (the band that Rock of Love’s Bret Michaels is in) was arrested on a rape warrant issued out of Mississippi as he arrived at LAX after getting off a flight from New Zealand.
Rikki Rockett, 46, was arrested Monday at the airport and booked into the Los Angeles County Jail, according to Los Angeles police and the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department’s Inmate Information Web site. He was held on a strong-arm rape warrant stemming from Neshoba County, Missisippi, and appears to have been released from L.A. County custody, the Sheriff’s Web site shows. His status today could not be confirmed.
Details about the warrant were not immediately available. Messages left with state police in Mississippi went unanswered.
According to the online Web site Wikipedia, Rockett was born Richard Allan Ream in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. He has worked as a hairdresser, lifeguard, dishwasher, Emergency Medical Technician and a suit salesman. He rose to prominence in the 1980s when he co-founded the band Poison with vocalist Bret Michaels.
In late 1993, Rockett discovered that the then guitarist Richie Kotzen of Poison was having a relationship with Rockett’s fiancee at the time, Deanna Eve. Kotzen was fired due to this incident.
I do not take rapists lightly, but doesn’t that kind of suck that Bret Michaels has all those skanks throwing themselves at him, and this guy has to resort to raping someone? You’d think Bret would throw him one of his rejects!
