Press Release Source: Rush Limbaugh Reports Stating Rush Limbaugh Was Arrested Are Inaccurate; Limbaugh's Attorney Holds Press Conference at 8:00 pm Tonight
Friday April 28, 7:55 pm ET
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- A spokesman for Rush Limbaugh said some news reports that state Mr. Limbaugh was arrested are inaccurate.Separately, Rush Limbaugh's attorney, Roy Black will hold a press conference at 8:00 pm this evening at the Marriott Hotel at 1001 Okeechobbee Road in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Mr. Black will discuss the agreement reached today with the State Attorney's Office whereby a single count charge of doctor shopping that was filed today by the State Attorney will be dismissed in 18 months.
As previously announced, a primary condition of the dismissal, Mr. Limbaugh must continue to seek treatment from the doctor he has seen for the past two and one half years. This is the same doctor under whose care Mr. Limbaugh has remained free of his addiction without relapse.
Mr. Black stated, "Mr. Limbaugh and I have maintained from the start that there was no doctor shopping, and we continue to hold this position. Accordingly, we filed today with the Court a plea of 'Not Guilty' to the charge filed by the State.
"As part of this agreement, Mr. Limbaugh also has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation. The agreement also provides that he must refrain from violating the law during the 18 month period, must pay $30 per month for the cost of "supervision" and comply with other similar provisions of the agreement.
"Mr. Limbaugh had intended to remain in treatment. Thus, we believe the outcome for him personally will be much as if he had fought the charge and won," he said.

3 years.
And, they lost....big time.
Rush pays more than Sandy Burglar. I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for either the federal Department of Justice or the State of Florida prosecutors. None, zero, nada.
And I was a prosecutor for 14 years.
Drive-By Media is just getting beyond ridiculous.. scumbags. No wonder when the people tire of the corrupt system, the first ones to be hanged are the Journalists themselves
Urban legend. Rush quit talking about drugs almost a decade before now
I relish this. Bring me more!
Well, if it came from a press release issued by Rush Limbaugh's attorney, it has to be accurate.LOL!
I have no doubt that Rush's attorney is biased -- too!Still, I would rather trust Rush's attorney than the "Drive By Media" -- particularly to provide some BALANCE to this rapidly breaking story, since as they say:
"A lie will go round the world while truth is pulling its boots on."
I want to see the Cult of Free Republic QUIRM when her time is nearly over.
Michael Wiener will be deeply saddened to learn this. All through his rants he's been calling Rush "Hush Bimbo."
What are you going to do now? Where can you hide? How will your evil gotten mammon save your life or your soul. Come!
Rush's loan from God has been revoked effectively immediately.
FYI Palm Beach county FL is the home of the outrageous tobacco litigation and is one of the two worst courts for outragous lawsuits in the country.
Just heard Savage on tape delay. He said he was saddened but not surprised. For a guy with 24 best-sellers and several advanced degrees he seems entirely too much into feelings and less into reason. Not quite gleeful. Yes, ill-concealed glee.
When in doubt, would you believe the media or Rush?
