As a 33 year Army vet, Laffer and his wife were obviously eligible for the legal amount of painkillers through base privileges. Also, she’s have been eligible for psychological/drug abuse counseling to work on her addiction. None of this makes sense, but now four people are dead because they didn’t do what they should have to deal with her (and his?) problems.
Mea culps. Need reading glasses. He wasn’t a 33 year vet, he’s a 33 year old vet. Still, I think he’s entitled to base privileges to get the legal amount of painkillers the wife may have needed.
