A MAN WHO SOUGHT EIGHT AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS IN DAMAGES FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS HAD HIS CASE THROWN OUT OF U-S DISTRICT COURT IN ALBUQUERQUE. AARON ROMERO FILED SUIT LAST YEAR, CLAIMING D-E-A AGENTS “REIGNITED” HIS ADDICTION WHEN THEY SUPPLIED HIM WITH CRACK COCAINE.
THE COURT RULED ROMERO’S OWN WRONGFUL CONDUCT WAS THE CAUSE OF HIS INJURIES, SO HE COULDN’T HOLD OTHERS, INCLUDING THE GOVERNMENT, RESPONSIBLE.
