Ecstasy deaths: Hertfordshire police issue drugs warning


A senior police officer has issued a warning about the dangers of illegal drugs following the deaths of two young men believed to have taken ecstasy.

A 21-year-old man from Watford died on 29 November and a man from Aylesbury, also 21, died on 12 December.

Hertfordshire Police is investigating the deaths. Both thought to have taken MDMA (ecstasy).

Assistant Chief Constable Jon Boutcher said the public needed to be aware of the risks.

He said: "We would like to remind the public of the inherent risks in taking illegal drugs.

"In particular at this time of year when people are out celebrating before Christmas.

"Both deaths are subject to a coroner's investigation and police inquiries are taking place.

"Results from toxicology and other tests are still awaited, consequently causes of these tragic deaths have not been fully ascertained.

"However we do have indications that they both took the drug MDMA.

"Our thoughts and sympathies are with the families of these two young men at this very difficult time."
 
PMA? hmmm i'm always suspicious when lots of deaths in one area come from a batch of tablets. for ages the oink squad will say its mdma then after a few more deaths they clock that its pma/pmma but by then more people are dead.

mdma can have a fatal reaction in some people but when the deaths are in the same county (also noticed on a link from that link to two men who died 7 miles apart in scotland from "6x strength tablets").

my bets hedged-PMA/PMMA doing its yearly cull

also- thanks pigs for the lack of info on what these dodgy tabs look like maybe there will be a warning after a few more people are allowed die to show the dangers of drug abuse and serve as warnings
 
Would much rather do MDMA this Christmas than alcohol. How about making an article about the inherent risks of alcohol?
 
I live in Hertfordshire, so it would be nice if they actually fucking told us what type of pills/"MDMA" these people took :\
 
It should be illegal to publish articles about a specific substance causing a death based on speculation, without any toxicological evidence. Scare tactic propaganda pisses me off.
