Sleep Baby Sleep

Women's Health has an informative Website on date-rape drugs: http://www.womenshealth.gov/faq/date-rape-drugs.cfm. As women, awareness is our best weapon against being victimized. This site provides step-by-step actions to take to avoid being victimized: http://www.ehow.com/how_2138984_avoid-being-ghb-victim.html.  When someone at a private party slipped GHB into my daughter's drink and she had a violent reaction to the drug but her supposed friends, people she trusted, decided not to call 911 and made the fatal decision to let her sleep off the poisonous effects even though she had seizures and fell into a coma. According to a police officer in L.A. , Californina, Trinka Porata, states: "How sad indeed to lay dying as “friends” just party on nearby." She states that she has heard of cases where they partied for eight hours or more AFTER their “friends” had already died nearby." This was exactly what happened to my daughter. Her boyfriend, Rapper Abstract Rude (aaron Pointer) explain to me that he at some point in the early morning laid down beside my daughter, who he said had been sleeping, and he slept beside her. He claimed to have heard her "shallow breathing." Trinka Porata, L.A. P. D says that those who party on through the night knowing it was GHB that caused the person to convulse and turn blue...they assume the person they put to bed would wake in the morning but "wake up...to find a dead body beside them... knowing it was GHB. REAL friends don’t let friends lay dying when help could save them... http://www.projectghb.org/2008/deathstat.php  It is unconscionable that a human being who acts like your friend and your lover could be so inhumane. But, then drugs make people do and act in bizarre ways and they justify or deny their culperability, and go free to live. My daughter's death made me painfully aware of the fragility of life. The loss and grief that her brother and I have suffered because of the senseless negligence of another, has scared our hearts forever. I continue to tell her story and hope that her story raises the awareness for other women. I look at the public figure of the Rapper with my daughter when she was drugged and died, and, I wonder how many woman have been and will be victimzed by this man. He sings music while others lay dying. Live life from Awareness. Remember all your power is in your awareness of your power.
