Not giving in to blackmail was an important first step to turning his life around. Once you let that happen, you have truly hit rock bottom.

Going to serious rehab was a good second step. Now he needs to pay his debt to society. He should get a plea bargain. He's already done his rehab deal. He should be forced to pay a fine and perform community service and let him move on with his life. And the woman who blackmailed him should be sent away for a long time.

I read that DEM OPERATIVE BOB BECKEL was paying hookers for sex,then she started blackmailing him. He went to the cops to stop it. Humiliating to have people know you have to pay to have sex.

I suppose Rush didn't want to be publicly humiliated as a drug user.
