He should be in prison over helping a friend score pills? Skaggs was an adult who made his own decisions, and obviously this was hardly his first rodeo with opiates. According to this account the fatal dose was likely not even obtained through this guy.

Doctors don’t prescribe cigarettes. Nobody is getting hooked on cigarettes because that carton of Marlboro Reds they were sent home with following surgery was just too good to stop using.

You don’t appear to understand how journalism and sources work. Nor do you understand that anything attributed to “unnamed” sources in a legitimate, and upstanding publication, will have gone through extensive vetting to verify their claims.

So a 45 year old dude in the front office had a 27 year old member of the team paying for drugs which he muled for the two. What is the over/under on employees in the Angels organization who knew this or heard rumors of this? 30? 40? 

Or not.

Further perpetuation of the drug war is just silly. Criminalization of suppliers will do nothing more that pack prisons with people who need medical help, not punishment.

He should be in prison for what exactly? Buying drugs illegally? So we can just skip over the apparent mental/physical illness it seems Skaggs had? We all need help and need to destigmatize that getting it isn't a flaw.

C'mon. This guy was a gopher. Both addicts, just happened that the famous one died

I mean, he is an addict. At least he is trying to get help now.

Thanks for the “spinster at heart” comment. Mid-fight with my older brother years ago, he lobbed at me that I had “a spinster’s mentality”. It’s one of those things that still rings in my head over 20 years later. On good days, I’m proud of it. On bad days, it causes me mental strife. To be fair, I did call him Mrs…

According to The Little Friend, one need be an aunt with a dead husband who often wears slacks. I’ve got two out of three.

Shepard Smith is jobless by choice.

It’s so strange to me that her sister helped her become emancipated from their mother due to abuse, but no one in her life said “hey, isn’t it weird that this grown man wants to date a barely legal starlet on the rise?” 

Ariel Winter, 21, broke up with the 32-year-old man who began dating her when she was a teenager.

Me and this guy share 99.9% of our DNA. It took me two hours to get out of bed.

“His lawyers also claim that he did not throw her down the stairs—merely, he picked her up, tried to carry her out of the house , but slipped before reaching the stairs and caught her in his arms.”

It’s commonness doesn’t make it less chilling.

So, if I’m reading this correctly his alibi is that he was cheating on her?

You ought to reconsider who you believe. Crimes against women are an epidemic and all studies show women underreport or fail to report crime at all, often for fear of not being believed. Check your misogyny. 

Deadly Invasion: The Killer Bee Nightmare sounds intriguing.
