I've said it before, but it never ceases to amaze me. Richards is a walking anti-drug advertisement. Seemingly overnight, he changed from an average-looking guy into Kharis the Mummy, and I think it has to be the heroin. Teenagers tend to be fixated on their looks, and maybe the most effective anti-drug commercial the DARE people, or a similar group, could devise would be pre-heroin and post-heroin photographs of Richards. Age alone can't account for such a dramatic physical transformation, in my opinion.
