How does this keep going back to drugs being a factor? I have seen nothing to suggest this. Am I correct that a definitive link between the two has yet to be established?
You are absolutely correct. We have not seen any evidence at all that ML was into drugs. (I believe that her friends have said that it was quite the contrary.)
For that matter, I don’t think we’ve seen any evidence that AA was into drugs—although people have raised their eyebrows as they wondered how he got the money to buy his house.
We do have some evidence that they knew each other from some sort of an online connection—he had her ‘profile picture’ on his phone—we don’t know from what site.
