San Luis Obispo County Supervisor Dave Blakely sold cocaine to friends between 1983 and 1985, but no charges will be filed because the three-year statute of limitations has run out, the San Luis Obispo County district attorney’s office said. Senior district attorney’s investigator William Hanley said informants indicated that Blakely, then a teacher, sold cocaine about 30 times. Blakely, who has publicly admitted using cocaine, marijuana and other drugs before 1985, called Hanley’s report “character assassination” and denied selling drugs.
