Here’s the scenario.
A man is asked to submit a random drug test for work. He provides two urine samples for testing, and both come back positive for meth. immediatly he is suspended from work and he sues, claiming it was a false positive caused by a combination of Adderall and Claritin. after several weeks a judge decided that he can go back to work, but that his work is allowed to drug test him whenever they please.
After a week or so they test him, and ask him to provide a second sample from a testing clinic of his choosing. the sample he provides his work again comes back positive with levels high enough to show habitual use. the sample he provided to an individual lab comes back negative.
His work takes him back to court, and this time they have an affidavit from his step mother. the affidavit states that she has witnessed her step son snorting meth at least thirty times in the last several year. She also states that he used to cook his own meth until ephedrinewas regulated by the DEA.
Who do you believe?
well the man is NASCAR driver Jeremy Mayfield, and his work is NASCAR. Nascar has one of the strictest drug policies of any nationally sanctioned sport. The reasons are obvious, some one hopped up on drugs guiding a 200mph missile is a lot more dangerous than a baseball player with big muscles. and until this year, NASCAR has had no offenders.
So who do you believe?
