An email CSI star Gary Dourdan sent to his Access Hollywood pal Shaun Robinson, apologizing for his recent arrest for possession of narcotics and dangerous drugs, made its way onto the Internet.
Dourdan was arrested in the early morning hours of April 29 when a Palms Spring police officer found the actor asleep behind the wheel, parked on a California roadside. A search of the car found a cache of drugs, including cocaine, heroin, Ecstasy and several prescription drugs and drug paraphernalia.
"Obviously I certainly wish I hadn't been responsible for so many people getting to the [Coachella music] festival's VIP area," Dourdan wrote, referring to the concert he had attended prior to the arrest. "And the after party, it ran me ragged, but I'm glad pulling over did prevent a DUI. I recommend not driving at all, but a little kip [nap] is always good (on either side of the road LOL)."
Dourdan also said the illegal items found in the car did not belong to him.
"I am blessed that the [arresting] Sgt. realized that the luggage carrying whatever they found was not mine and that my tests have been coming back negative," he added. "I've been happy to cooperate in any way to clear myself and go on with my blessed life."
The actor also apologized to fans, particularly country music star Taylor Swift, who said CSI is a favorite show of hers. Dourdan had planned to present Swift an award at Hollywood Life Magazine's 10th Annual Young Hollywood Awards.
"I am so sorry to all my fans, especially the young ones, like Taylor Swift, who I should've been supporting with my daughter instead of driving tired in the desert,” Dourdan wrote. "I am planning events to get the word out that you don't need a bunch of nasty chemicals to have a good time. Just good friends, family, good music and a good honest spirit full of faith."
