Definition

  • Francis Mullen was the administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) from 1981 to 1985. While he became the acting administrator upon his predecessor Peter Bensinger's retirement, Mullen was formally nominated by President Ronald Reagan in January 1982, and eventually confirmed by the Senate in September 1983; most of his tenure running the DEA was technically in an “acting” capacity. [Source: Encyclopedia of Drug Policy; Mullen, Francis]
