From the New York Daily News: He scrutinizes singers on “The Voice,” but reality TV star CeeLo Green may have had a hard time judging a sex partner’s impairment after he slipped her ecstasy last year, prosecutors said Monday.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office cited that possibility along with insufficient evidence about the woman’s level of intoxication when it formally rejected a felony rape charge against the “Forget You” crooner.
Instead, prosecutors slapped Green with one count of furnishing ecstasy to a female victim — a felony carrying a potential sentence of up to four years in prison.
Green, whose real name is Thomas DeCarlo Callaway, pleaded not guilty to the charge in a courtroom in downtown Los Angeles on Monday afternoon.
He wore a knee-length black crochet jacket, flowing black pants and tinted glasses as he stood beside defense lawyer Blair Berk and said he understood he could be taken into custody if he failed to post $30,000 bail before the court closed....
He agreed to a booking with Los Angeles Police within 24 hours and waited in the gallery with a woman described as his girlfriend, while his bail bondsman made quick work of his paperwork.

2 things struck me:
1. Why would Green need pop pills on a female to get her to go to bed with him
2. Why would Green need a bails bondsmen to post his bond? Doesn't he have enough money to post bail himself and have the attorney's post the bail?
