McCready stable after cutting wrists
Country singer Mindy McCready was in stable condition in a Nashville hospital Thursday after police said she cut her wrists and took several pills in an apparent suicide attempt.
A Nashville police report said McCready’s brother discovered the singer in her bloody bed several hours after she returned Wednesday morning from a night out. Timothy McCready told police his sister had been “very intoxicated.”
McCready, 33, had one No. 1 hit, “Guys Do It All the Time,” in 1996. Since then, her career has languished as she struggled with legal and personal problems that included previous suicide attempts.
In October, McCready was released from jail in Tennessee after serving about 30 days for violating probation on a 2004 drug charge.
