Free drugs and prostitutes... who could refuse. Really. If you are in that "business" and you refuse you have certainly brought attention to yourself.

The reporting is primarily focusing on the sexual misconduct aspect, and ignoring the more serious issue of the relationships that the DEA has with some cartels ( corruption ). Of course that part is probably top secret, but it just looks real bad to me.
