Stephen Arrington is an award-winning author and a motivational and drug education speaker. In the past, he was a Navy bomb disposal diver and Vietnam veteran who worked on missions with the CIA and Secret Service.
A marijuana mistake destroyed his 14-year career and directly led to him becoming a defendant in the John Z. DeLorean Case of 1982, known as the Drug Trial of the Century.
Pardoned by President Obama in 2017, Arrington received a full Presidential Pardon for his extensive work with youth for drug education and prevention.
He has written seven books and produced various award-winning documentaries.
His latest, "In DeLorean's Shadow: The Drug Trial of The Century by The Sole Surviving Defendant," walks you through the trials and tribulations of his past from utter darkness to the shining light.
