My former best friend (and best man at my wedding) ended up trying to scam me for drug money a few months after my daughter was born and we were basically broke because of it. He ended up scamming my mom instead. Obviously, I broke it off and never spoke to him again, but something made me realize a few months ago that I could look up his record out of curiosity.
Not only was it a mile long, he is currently in prison for running a meth lab.
This was a guy who, when we met in middle school, wanted to compose classical music and even ended up going to music school for it before dropping out and beginning his long descent into drug abuse. I was doing the same drugs he was in college (or at least I was in the beginning), but he graduated to a pill addiction and then eventually, I guess, meth.
