Live Science states, " cocaine or heroin on their hands to trip very sensitive instruments called mass spectrometers."  What they fail to mention are these in-house hospitals have cocaine for nasal surgery's.   Think we can wash our hands of this as a medical community?  Think again... LiveScience.com again states:   "...researchers were trying to establish a baseline for how much trace heroin or cocaine would turn up in a non-drug user's fingerprint. (When a person does a fingerprint test, some of the substances on their fingertips are transferred to the print.) They compared non-drug users' fingerprints to the fingerprints of recent heroin or cocaine users, in hopes of establishing a level over which they could confide
