Tom_kkh 1st Gear February 8, 2011 Share February 8, 2011 Really quite suprising right? Someone with the qualifications and credentials, and who look so decent can get caught up with drugs. don forget the high profile drug bust years ago, was it 2005 or 2006? how many times we have read actors and actresses caught for drugs? it seems that drug is more popular with the rich and famous, just that we are not rich and famous yet to realize the hard truth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whathefish 5th Gear February 8, 2011 Share February 8, 2011 sometime is peer pressure...at his age? quite sad to see successful people ruin their life like this...sometime just one wrong step and that's it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixel18 1st Gear February 8, 2011 Share February 8, 2011 At 54, he cannot dismiss it as lack of maturity. With his background, neither can be say its because of limited intellect. Given his status, its unlikely to be peer influence or bad company...though not impossible. With odds stacked against him and what he stands to loose when busted (yet he persisted and was arrested), it is likely to be poor logic and judgement. Another case of wasted public monies for his education .... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
