The title of the article says it all:

I thought that's what retirement was supposed to be all about...

I did read a couple different articles on the arrest and one had a link to the arresting officer's report.

I was curious as to HOW they found the drugs and weapons, especially because there was some suggestion that the USCG did the search, which would have made things legally interesting.

However, legally it was nothing burger even though the headlines and stories mention the DEA and the USCG.

The officer's reports said the weapons and drugs were in plain view when they went to render assistance to a woman in the stateroom. So there was no need for a search warrant
