Chris Henry – Drug Test – Failed? No one is sure

Bad Behavior

First it was leaked that Chris Henry failed a court ordered drug test for opiates. Now he may not have. That hasn’t stopped the WWLIS from reporting he has. From their site before they change it.

Suspended Bengals receiver Chris Henry failed a court-ordered drug test and will have to serve 88 days in jail.



Kenton County (Kentucky) Attorney Garry Edmondson said that Henry tested positive for opiates and he will be forced to serve jail time.

Henry’s failed drug test was first reported by WKRC-TV in Cincinnati.

Now from the WKRC-TV website.

The Kenton County Attorney now says his office has conflicting information on drug test results involving Bengals receiver Chris Henry.



Earlier today, Garry Edmondson said Henry had failed a court-ordered drug test, adding that Henry tested positive for opiates.

Edmondson indicated it would force Henry to serve up to 88 days in the Kenton County jail.

Edmondson says one test came back negative. He says results of another test are pending. He would not say who told him the test was positive.

I would rather be right than first when it comes to news. Perhaps there was some opiates, perhaps not. Perhaps the WWLIS was going with the information they had. I do know one thing for sure, they won’t say they got it wrong.

Stu Scott won’t open SportsCenter with: “We are sorry we reported Chris Henry failed a drug test when it turns out the results of that test were negative. We reported our news second-hand without verifying the sources.” That, you will not hear. Booyah indeed.
