Pete Doherty reveals he's frustrated by murder speculation over the death of actor Mark Blanco who fell from a balcony at a party 18 years ago as he insists 'I didn't kill him'


Mark, 30, fell from a property in Whitechapel, East London , where the Libertines frontman, 45, had been attending a party in December 2006.

Pete Doherty has insisted he 'didn't kill' aspiring actor Mark Blanco the night he fell to his death from a balcony (Pictured in 2023) CCTV footage of the night in question showed Pete - with girlfriend Kate Russell-Pavier, 19, and his 'minder' Jonathan Jeannevol, known locally as 'Johnny Headlock' - walking past the body and then running away from the scene. Marco sadly died in hospital from head injuries a day after he was found under the balcony of Doherty's literary agent and friend Paul Roundhill.
