After months of dodging allegations, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford told reporters Tuesday that he smoked crack cocaine about a year ago — probably, he said, during a “drunken stupor.”
“Yes, I have smoked crack cocaine. But … do I? Am I an addict? No,” Ford said.“Probably in one of my drunken stupors, probably approximately about a year ago,” he said about the cocaine use.
Pressure on Ford, 44, increased last week, when Toronto’s police chief announced investigators recovered a video of the mayor that purportedly shows him smoking a crack pipe. That followed allegations in two
media reports in May that a video showed Ford using crack cocaine last winter.
