Maybe you missed the post about a certain narcotics division chief and who he is ( purportedly) related to? And how many charges both RC and SC have had go "poof"?

What I saw from their dockets is not at all unusual and according to one local poster, is typical in such cases in AZ. Dismissals due to lack of sustainable evidence or due to completion of diversion is common and does not in any way indicate some conspiracy based on a shadowy relative with clout.
Those who are physically dependent on opioids and benzos take very high doses. With increased amounts, they become lethargic and will have slurred speech along with other side effects. When someone is on low dose of a benzo, they don't slur their speech, but the desired effect of decreased agitation can be witnessed. IMO, Sergio's affect was grossly inappropriate for the situation. He should have been agitated. He also misinterpreted that the 911 operator wanted his wife's height and not his daughters and he had difficulty spelling Isabel's name. Perhaps he is normally "goofy" like this, but I doubt it.
Like I said, I am very familiar with drug addicts. I can tell if they are on benzos, opiates, amphetamines, etc. I can detect the smallest of signs in people who are not slurring or lethargic. I have had to deal with this most of my life and it was necessary at times for emotional survival to be able to quickly detect the cues. And that's about all I want to say about that.
