Regardless of your politics, it doesn't take much to believe that a person known to have months-long crack binges went on another binge. Recovery is hard.

Sure, it's not impossible to believe, but DevKoala up there saying "yeah, he did that" with no evidence/verifiable sources, I'll assume he's just talking out of his ass.. (a trait shared by a certain political side)

You are right, it was wrong of me to assert he handed the laptop while intoxicated. Perhaps what I should have said is that given his recent history of addiction, his competence when handling important materials is in question.

Also, the laptop repair shop owner has gone on court to fight for his version of the story.
