A debt like that really smells like more illegal activity to me.
He's going to rehab NOT to get clean or change his ways, but to avoid going to jail. End of. Since this (further) violates his parole, he is assuming that the justice system will just look the other way. Meanwhile, for the next 3 months that he's in rehab (gee, the exact same amount of time that he has to come up with $10,000; coincidence?) his parole officer is going to wonder where the hell he is and have a warrant put out for his arrest.
Also, doesn't anyone else think it's weird that he's airing all these details on a public forum, for anyone in the world to read?
But I guess since he's going to rehab now so we'll just have to wait for the conclusion to this exciting story, if there is one...

I understood it to mean that he is planning to spend the first $5000 he made from the sale of half his supply on the 3 month rehab program. The total he owes his supplier is $10,000. If he spends on rehab the $5000 which he does already have he will have to come up with that plus the other $5000 as soon as he gets out of the supposedly protective environment of rehab.
Oh I'm also thinking this fellow has some sort of insurance to kick in on the rehab program because I cannot imagine that a 3 month program would cost so little as $5000.
He also does acknowledge that rehab is not where his parole terms ask him to be, but he thinks they might acquiesce. I should think he would call in to his parole officer and perhaps visit the parole office even while in rehab. The rehab program would probably also provide a letter as to his residence there.
His issues will not be anything new to a drug rehab program. That includes the possibility that a dealer would follow him there for retribution. Violence does sometimes take place in rehab.
