| It wasn't until April 2004, almost four years later, that the final arrestees stood trial and were acquitted on all charges. |
| Notably, most of the arrestees had no criminal records, and many were related to or married to US citizens. |
| Further, the Drug Use Forecasting surveys consistently report that female arrestees have higher rates of cocaine use than male arrestees. |
| This would suggest that dependence on both alcohol and illicit substances tends to be the norm for dependent arrestees. |
| Although arrestees who are not convicted can later have their DNA removed from databases, this would involve a bureaucratic process. |
| A random selection of arrestees are approached within 48 hours of their arrest and asked to participate in the study. |
