He was drinking alcohol, which is a drug, and that was violating the terms of his probation. As far as other drugs go, no, except for the fact that he wasn't going to his drug treatment programs. That was in the SL Tribune article I posted yesterday. So, no, I don't have a source on other drugs besides alcohol, but generally speaking, not going to rehab is a sure sign that one has slipped back into drug use. And if that is jumping to a conclusion, then I jump to that conclusion.

I'll go further than that, Utah Girl. I will say that not going to rehab you've been ordered to go to under threat of jail is a DEFINITE sign that you are using drugs. I have seen many, many, many people who have failed to complete court-ordered rehab and/or testing. I would ask them why, in confidence, they failed to do it. WITHOUT EXCEPTION, every one would say the main reason was b/c they had been using. There is literally no other reason besides using, for a person to fail in court-ordered rehab so badly that his parole officer makes it one of the bases for asking that his parole be revoked.

Fair enough. I'm glad you are honest enough to admit that. That said, I see no reason to continue to debate conjecture.

I'll debate facts supported with source. Anything else would be meaningless drivel on my part.
