Mae tends to cast a broad net even if her suspicions are based on real instances.
I Wikipedia'ed Tim Buckley and it seems the heroin he snorted was also taken by others who didn't OD. The circumstances he was given the heroin under are explained and understandable so I would need a good argument why he was the victim of a COINTELPRO operation before I suggested foul play in his case.
I have noticed, though, that when you isolate a real case of intrigue and murder the public suddenly becomes uninterested in it. The public is much more interested in cases where various theories can be imagined rather than proven cases where they have to do the boring work of actually doing something about it. A good way to tell a real conspiracy is the public's disinterest in it.
