"Bath Salts" Cannibal story (gory; caution)

[Bigpal]

The toxicology reports are finished and NPR reports that Eugene had no bath salts in his system, only marijuana. No way marijuana contributed to this, he had to be under the influence of something.

So, I wonder what it was that made him freak. Funny though how all of his symptoms seem to correlate with bath salts.

I saw another ARTICLE saying the labs that did the toxicology have a hard time keeping up with synthetic "designer drugs." So he may still have been on something like Bath Salts, or something similar, and they have no way currently to test for them.

Or it could be that he was just bat-sh*t crazy.

Has to be something. Even if he's just crazy, it would be very unusual for him to start swinging naked on a traffic pole, rip someones clothes off and gnaw their face off. If he was that far gone, I don't think he would have been able to maintain a "non-crazy" persona during his time with friends or family, who all testify he was normal.

well, doctors, theres your problem right there; "traces of marijuana" !
Obviously the poor guy wasnt getting enough.

THIS is pretty interesting.

I'm sorry, but his mother has no right to be surprised or upset in the least little bit that those churches refused to bury her son. From the article, it's clear that he had real emotional problems for years, and that his mom has a selective memory of only the good times. Completely understandable. But also completely understandable that those churches want nothing to do with her son.

[Toohotruk]

I agree.

From what they say about the night before, it sounds like he may have made up his mind on suicide. Maybe took too much whatever, didn't kill him, but really disillusioned him. Synthetic marijuana can be ingested.

...Initial studies are focused on the role of synthetic cannabis and psychosis. It seems likely that synthetic cannabis can precipitate psychosis and in some cases it is prolonged. These studies suggest that synthetic cannabinoid intoxication is associated with acute psychosis, worsening of previously stable psychotic disorders... -Wikipedia

And they only found traces of marijuana:

...Although synthetic cannabis does not produce positive results in drug tests for cannabis, it is possible to detect its metabolites in human urine... -Wikipedia

The chemicals and metabolites of chemicals in bath salts CAN without too much difficulty be detected in human urine. I have colleagues that have done it (detected it, that is). Also, Cannabis CAN cause psychosis. Bath salts aren't really that new anymore. Its usually almost always been seen before. There are ways to detect it easily.
