Ex-KFAN host goes back to the workhouse

Former KFAN Star Jeff Dubay formerly of the P.A. and Dubay show is in trouble with the law again.

Former KFAN Radio personality Jeff Dubay will spend another 87 days in the Ramsey County workhouse after admitting he used cocaine -- again -- in May.

Dubay wore an orange jail-issued jumpsuit Tuesday morning when he appeared before District Judge Joanne Smith. It was his second probation violation and the fourth time he has run afoul of the law and the court system since his initial arrest in the fall of 2008 for drug possession.

Prosecutor Laura Rosenthal and probation officer Laurie Theissen told the judge that a urine test by Dubay on April 12 came back positive for cocaine. On May 20, he did not submit to another urine test but instead admitted to using cocaine on May 17-18.

Dubay was arrested Oct. 15, 2008, in Maplewood. While being pursued by police, he threw a plastic bag out of his car that contained a small amount of cocaine. He was fired from KFAN shortly thereafter. He had been co-host of the midday show with Paul Allen for 10 years.
