altTed Williams, the former homeless man with the incredibly golden voice, left skid marks at the Texas drug rehabilitation center that he originally agreed to go into, according to media reports.

Williams left the facility against medical advice, less than two weeks after checking in for drug and alcohol dependency. He had decided to enter rehab earlier this month following a taping of the “Dr. Phil” show. According to TMZ, he left the Origins Recovery Center in South Texas earlier today and was en route to the airport.


While most will believe that Williams quit because he just wanted to get his high on, sources said Williams was appalled that Dr. Phil had installed cameras and lighting equipment in the facility to record Williams’ rehab process. Williams believed that he was being made to be part of some reality show farce and that he was strong-armed by Dr. Phil into going into that particular rehab facility in the first place.
