“I had my drink right here in front of me,” she said. “And then I grabbed it, stirred it, drank it, set it down.”
While sitting and texting her daughter, a random man walked up and sat down next to her. When she set her drink down on the table, the man said, “Hi.”
“I just looked up at him and said, ‘Hello’,” Melissa said. “Then he told me, ‘It looks like you’re stuck with me tonight.’ I was like, whatever. It kind of was, it was creepy. So, I grabbed my drink and I told him, ‘I’m going to call my husband.’”

''Security camera video obtained by KPRC 2 shows the man, who Melissa pointed out.''
But to this point, they thought this was a run-in with a weirdo.
Still, Melissa just wanted to go home and leave that drink behind.''

“I was like, ‘Well, I didn’t want to waste $8.’ So, I grabbed the drink, and I just swung it. I took a big swig,” Daniel said.
By the time they walked out of the bar, Daniel was starting to fall apart. By the time they got to their home in the Energy Corridor, Daniel was a mess.''

So the guy didn't buy her the drink and simply sat down with her at her table for a short time but was somehow able to drug her drink? Hmm.

If you’ve ever been a young woman in college, you’ll have heard, seen, or experienced how quickly a roofie can get slipped into a drink.

There’s a TikTok video you can look up ‘showing my friends how easy it is for their drink to be spiked: Swedish fish edition’. I don’t think I can link it according to WS rules

Respectfully, there are TikTok videos for an innumerable number of things that are untrue. I remain skeptical of this story, and it's not because I don't believe women. Quite the opposite.

well that bar needs better surveillance - can barely see the creep
I've been roofied (twice) - it's the worst experience and I wasn't even victimized beyond ingesting it but it really does throw you for a loop

I wonder if this would have been reported on if SHE'd been the one to take the swig.

Women get roofied every day. Sadly, it rarely makes the news.

May I ask what aspects you’re skeptical about?

I think it would have been easy for him to do it while she was engrossed with texting her daughter and looking down at her phone. It only takes a second. It’s not like he’s mixing up some complicated concoction.

They have video of the guy and physical proof something happened to her husband. Are you implying that they are faking it and he roofied himself?

I’m confused as to your point?? What is there to be sceptical of?

I am confused as well. There is footage of that strange man at a table with the wife, and the drug test proved that the husband was indeed drugged. The police are treating this as legitimate and have given no indication that this may be a hoax. MOO

Was I Drugged?

''What are predatory/“date rape” drugs?​

Predatory drugs are usually very powerful depressants and/or tranquilizers that are used for the purpose of rendering an individual incapacitated. They are often mixed with alcoholic beverages and some are tasteless and odorless, such as GHB. The most common predatory/“date rape” drugs are alcohol, GHB, Rohypnol, and Ketamine. Because alcohol is a depressant and some of these drugs also suppress the nervous system, the mix can be life threatening.

What are the signs/symptoms of being drugged?​

GHB and Rohypnol are depressants and therefore the signs and symptoms are very similar to being heavily intoxicated (weakness, fatigue, slurred speech, loss of motor coordination, and visual impairment). These drugs begin to impact the person within 15-30 minutes of consumption. If someone appears to be far more intoxicated than they should be for how much they drank, and the onset of these symptoms is severe and sudden, they may have been drugged. Ketamine, while not a depressant, alters perception, and may cause hallucinations and heart palpitations.''
