Did Mick Jagger Pay Sid Vicious’ Legal Bills?

Back in October 1978 when Sid Vicious was charged with the murder of his girlfriend, Nancy Spungen, he was pretty adrift with little money to pay for a lawyer.  A new revelation from Johnny Lydon claims that Mick Jagger came to the rescue.

I heard Mick Jagger got in there and brought lawyers into it on Sid’s behalf because I don’t think Malcolm lifted a finger. He just didn’t know what to do. For that, I have a good liking of Mick Jagger.

“There was activity behind the scenes from Mick Jagger so I applaud him. He never used it to advance himself publicity-wise.”
