If Ricci had been actively using illicit drugs at the time of his arrest, it would have been easily detected. Why would it not have been reported?

I'm sure there was some "dirty" urine test--or more than one--reported by the drug-testing people to his parole officer. But having a dirty urine is certainly not the same as being caught with the stuff. They don't arrest for dirty urine, unless a person is already on probation or parole. There has to have been some sign of drug use--or his parole officer would not have included that as one of the grounds for revoking his parole. BTW, to my knowledge, they don't have good tests for alcohol use, it's hard to detect unless they actually catch the person when he's just been drinking.

As for the drugs themselves, and the syringes or whatever, I can't believe he left them lying around. He wouldn't have wanted his great friend Mrs. Morse, or for that matter, Mr. Mitchell or Angela or anyone, knowing what he was doing. Or maybe he was using some of those "prescription medicines" he said he also liked. It's easy to get Lortab, for example--Utah Girl has discussed with me on these threads how dentists prescribe that for just anyone. It's a narcotic, I'm pretty sure, ask her. Then there was Soma in the house--not narcotic, but a nice high.

right, so either ricci is a hardcore heroin addict, needs his fix every day, needs cash for his fix, not trinkets he steals in the middle of the night or kidnapped victims he has to collect ransom for to feed his hardcore habit. or ... notice this is a silly path to pursue pointing to ricci as the guy.
