Placing this here because of discussions earlier in this thread. If there's a better place, @Ooh-Rah to the rescue.

Given this is an "exclusive" there's no real way to check the veracity of the article, but...wow. Read it for yourself. I'll leave this amazing bullet for you to chew on:

Officials with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service had meanwhile discovered vials of substances such as injectable testosterone believed to be from Pakistan in his vehicle, as well as texts on his phone in which Mullen had discussed the use of illegal drugs with four other individuals.
