> It's not clear why the SR admin would be buying cocaine in the first place, though.
Probably for one of the same reasons that anybody buys cocaine. Either because they like cocaine, or (judging by the amount), because they want to make lots of money selling cocaine. Making money on transaction fees doesn't mean you don't want more money.
That'd be a great explanation if accurate. It just shows that pure incompetence/greed on behalf of the admin brought him down, not any special government capabilities.
