Kiefer Sutherland, DUI Charges, and No Pants

Kiefer Sutherland with No Pants
As it happens, I am watching the season (season 3) which could very possibly be for the reason he got a public reputation. In season three (no spoilers, as I haven’t finished the season yet) Jack struggles with a heroin addiction which at this point he claims got him to the Salazars, a big part of the Mexican drug cartel. However, looking at little mannerisms and the annoying quirks he makes, one would have to argue whether this was introduced into the series as a means to hide his real life addiction of the bottle.
Sure, anyone could argue the large circles and often pale skin as being makeup for the show, but what about the uncontrollable head jerk and the snorting (seems like I am making a case for something other than alcohol, doesn’t it?) What in season 1 I saw as being hints of deceit to come, I now attribute to drug addiction and possibly alcoholism getting into his work.
Kiefer, may I call you that? Your pants are down, now bend over- your name and/or reputation is F’d for the rest of your life (or until 24 runs out of terrorists to fight).
