His Father, who knew the local police, "arranged" to have him locked up on a trumped up public order charge for 90 days . Now in those days there were no rehab facilities and no human rights lawyers ! 90 days later the guy came out after what he described as "hell" and vowed never to do dope again . Today he is a very successful lawyer in Edinburgh, Scotland .<BR/><BR/>I'm not necessarily advocating such a treatment but it worked for him .Caledonian Jimhttp://www.caledonian-comment.comnoreply@blogger.com
