I had my drink spiked at the same est. as the vn in circulation a few years back. Police treated me and my friend like 2 drunk fools. Hummed and stalled to get footage etc. Hospital as well, ignored request to test blood.. by the time they believed us it was too late. Haunts me to this day. I have a pretty good idea who it was too. He is a frequent patron of said est. No proof. Hopefully they catch the person red handed. These places of business also need to keep their video footage longer than one weekend.
Precisely WHERE are these incidents happening?
Island wide?
The police should provide the public at large with intelligent tips for safety.
How long has this madness been going on?
Any possible suspects?
Women must be kept informed!!
Never accept a drink once you are already hot.
Can it be a bad batch of Alcohol? IJA
