He’s not just saying he was locked up due to drugs. He’s saying that “all” his “poor decisions and lifestyle choices” in his twenties were related to drugs.

In a generalized sense, sure. There's both a strong correlation and a proven causation that drugs and domestic abuse go hand in hand across the prison population.
However, on any individual case the same is not true, because that moves from talking about averages and general cases into specifics, and the burden of proof changes significantly. While there is a connection on average, that isn't enough to say any specific drug abuser commits domestic abuse. For that, ideally, you need criminal charges proven in court. That's missing here.
It's not that wild to notice the connection between drug use and domestic abuse.
