Botticelli's "history, far from the liability it once may have been, is considered evidence that the government is moving toward addressing drug abuse more through healing than handcuffs," observes the Times.
While "takes one to know one" may hail back to schoolyard playground antics, it is spot on with alcoholism and drug addiction. As a recovering person Botticelli has the ability to reach and help addicts that MDs and PhDs and other "experts" lack.
