'I was wrong about cannabis:' Former Irish-American police chief on his 'Breaking Bad' conversion

Like the fictional science teacher Walter White, Darren White once led a life diametrically opposite to the one he now leads.
Former drug tsar and sheriff, Darren White transformed from a strictly anti-drugs law enforcer to one of New Mexico’s first legal cannabis producers.
The Irish American not only shares a surname with Walter White, the drug-producing anti-hero of hit TV show
, he also lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where the show is set. And his office is directly next to where the show’s amoral lawyer’s practice was based and where spin-off show is still filmed.
