yeah,this could have been a totally falsified report, or it could be 100% reality. we won't know for sure without knowing the people involved, or seeing legal documentation. but that's not my point.
drugs, aside from the OD'able ones, do not kill people. it is the actions that people take while under the influence of them that kill. this is a good reason to either have a sitter, which i personally have neglected to do at any point in time, lock yourself away from anything that could even remotely be harmful, as we all should know that when under an influence, even the most simple things can become deadly, or know your limits and don't go past them without taking precautions.
this report is, in its simplest form, a warning to people about respecting drugs. if you respect the drug, and its capabilities, you shouldn't ever have to worry about anything like this. because, when you respect your drugs, you know how far you can go with them, and don't try to go past that.
sorry for the loss of your friend. i had my first friend death at age 9...it really sucks. so, if you want someone to talk to, feel free to get in touch with me.
