The Promise of Getting Heroin
A lot of their early info on heroin comes from narcotics agents and CIA field agents who are like, the only reason I haven't killed myself from doing this job is that I use heroin. The Navy sponsors a study where they pay college students to take heroin to see if it works as a truth drug. It does not. So the next thing they try is Mescalin. That's almost to imply that when somebody is intoxicated that they're becoming more honest in almost any way. They may be just as likely to say the most outrageous thing they can think of.
