Riggs got screwed, that pres. pain killer was nothing more then an over the counter medicine that probably wouldn’t even come up on a test. Riggs was just being honest. Garcia is a real piece of work. Riggs is trying to feed his family and Garcia is still trying to be a cop. HE SUCKS
I sense a little anger over there, are you part of Rigg’s team?
