Do you send them to military school?
I got sent to military boarding school and it was a blast. I had so much fun there. Sure I got in trouble for some things and got demerits but it was worth it for all the fun I had.
I think my mom thought that I would hate it and would beg to come home but she was wrong!

Give them discipline and guidance through the tough stages and expect the frick ups, We all were assholes and deviants at this stage .

The kid isn't happy. Make sure you're not the problem. Then ask her what's going on and help her solve it. Life lessons and shite.

It's normal. Just talk to them. Don't be a jerk because that's going to alienate them more and make them angrier and more emo. Keep the lines of communication open and show them some compassion while explaining that's not how you treat people and that you expect respect

I'm going to reiterate this if its already been mentioned.
Are you married by any chance? If you are then none of the advice provided here is going to matter if you and the Mrs are on different pages. If one of your undercuts the other, then all of that discipline stuff isn't going to work.

So what they say about redheads is true. I didn't know they had military boarding schools for girls.

I'm not saying this is what's wrong in your situation, but as a teacher making phone calls home to parents, this is how many conversations went:
Me: Yes sir, your son is not doing his work, playing games on his computer during class, and falling behind.
Dad: I just don't understand! I give him whatever he wants. I just got him a truck, a new 4-wheeler, and a new gun to hunt with.
In this particular situation the dad felt guilty about working 7 days a week and tried to make up for it with gifts that weren't earned. I understand there is no black and white answer to parenting, but make sure you're not giving rewards before they are earned. Good luck, man!

Do you know where private school frick ups get to go when they get kicked out of school? That's right, Public school.

Labeling him as "f*d up" might be part of the problem. I pray you haven't said this to the child, but chances are whether you've said it to their face or not, they know you feel this way about them. Might just be part of the problem.
Early adolescence is a very difficult time for most kids. Throw in divorce, drugs, and poor parenting and you've got your self a recipe for disaster. The child needs love and craves attention right now. If they are not going to get positive attention from you, they'll get negative attention from outside sources.

How do you earn a privelege? Maybe by learning to spell?

Teenagers are teenagers. I was a total dumbass until I was 18, 19 yrs old. Whatever way you can make them realize how important it is not to frick up because it will come back and haunt them is what you need to do, whatever that is I dont know.
