Did you bother to ask what they were doing for that period of time after they were aware of his addiction.

    <description>
      
      <![CDATA[Dear Matt Davis,<br>
    <br>
    Arun Rahman spent 13 months of the last two years using and dealing drugs, seven months at rehabilitation facility at a cost of $36,000, and four months in jail. We have no information about what Rahman is doing today.<br>
    <br>
    There, I fixed your lead sentence for you but I don't know how to fix your claim that you investigated the local heroin problem because, other than the actual information you collected with your phone calls, you seem to be highlighting this privileged kid whose parents continually got him out of trouble by spending money and, if necessary, lying to schools so they'd let this pusher into the school to sell to their other students.

      <![CDATA[Narconon is Scientology.<br>
    <br>
    Narconon is a controversial international drug rehabilitation program based on the philosophy and theories on drug addiction of L. Ron Hubbard, a science fiction writer and founder of the Church of Scientology who appears to have been unqualified and ignorant of basic medical facts. Narconon's ties to Scientology are not readily available or disclosed to its clients who are making a decision on treatment for drug addiction at a vulnerable time in their lives.
