US Slang: the term “can’t be touched”?
I do not think this refers to drugs.
This is about slang used by psychological manipulators. In England it could be “can’t be touched” for dosh, or I think there is something in the dream world, “touched by ghosts” but neither seem right. Could be the person was protected and “cannot be touched” by agents or enemies?

There are different contexts for it…if something “can’t be touched”, it can mean that it’s the best, that nothing else comes close; if someone “can’t be touched”, it could mean that they are at the top of their field, or it could mean that they most likely committed a crime, but covered their tracks well enough that the law “can’t touch” – can’t arrest or persecute them – for lack of evidence. Hope that helps! (What’s “dosh”? I’m unfamiliar with British slang 🙂 )

I agree with celticwaverider, but would add the example song/video from M. C. Hammer: The immortal “Can’t Touch This”. Hammer time!
