Adolescentes que murieron por consumir drogas hicieron pastillas de metanfetamina, droga inhalada: forense

Two teenagers in Singapore died after consuming methamphetamine, according to findings released by the state coroner on July 15. Both victims had manufactured their own methamphetamine pills and inhaled the drug, leading to their fatalities. The identities of the teens remain confidential due to a gag order preventing disclosure of personal details such as names and addresses. The coroner's report detailed that the two individuals had been exchanging messages on the messaging app Telegram regarding illicit substances starting January 29, 2025—two days prior to their deaths. The coroner noted that the two were not in a romantic relationship and had yet to establish how they became acquainted. One of the boys had previously used Kpods, while the girl had experimented with Ecstasy. Plans to consume cannabis together were discussed, but these fell through when the boy failed to obtain the drug. On January 30, 2025, the boy attended a Chinese New Year gathering at a friend's house and departed between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., heading back home. At approximately 3 a.m. on January 31, he messaged the girl, informing her of gambling losses and suggesting they try methamphetamine. The girl responded by stating she would research the drug online. Their communication continued, focusing on methods of consumption. While waiting for her parents to sleep, the girl prepared to leave her home, and the boy filled four empty pill capsules with methamphetamine. Around 4:40 a.m., the girl indicated she was departing, and the boy arranged for a private-hire vehicle to transport her to his home. She arrived at approximately 5:15 a.m., and both proceeded to his bedroom. At about 5:30 a.m., the boy's domestic helper, whose bedroom was directly beneath his, heard chairs being moved. Later, the boy's brother, who returned home around 2 p.m., observed a pair of women's shoes outside the house. Upon glancing into the boy's bedroom, he noticed women's undergarments on the floor and, respecting his brother's privacy, closed the door and returned to his room. Returning at approximately 3:30 p.m., the brother noticed the woman's shoes remained in place. Entering the boy's room at about 4:45 p.m., he discovered the boy lying on the floor in his underwear, appearing dark and cold. He contacted the Singapore Civil Defence Force, while the helper informed the boy's other brother, who initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Inside the room, they heard someone crying in the toilet. Subsequently, they located the girl seated on the toilet floor, undressed, and attempted to communicate with her, though she did not respond. Paramedics arrived at the house around 5 p.m., confirmed the boy's death at 5:01 p.m., and reported the incident to the police. The boy's brothers informed the paramedics about the presence of a woman in the toilet. The paramedics assessed her condition, noting low blood pressure and bruises on her body. She was transported to Changi General Hospital, where she received intubation and medication, but ultimately passed away at 10:45 p.m. on the same day. Upon visiting the boy's home, police discovered two small storage bags containing a white substance on a poker table in his bedroom, alongside a blister pack of pills with four missing pills. A digital weighing scale and a handbag believed to belong to the girl were also present. Forensic analysis of the boy's phone uncovered a video depicting him and the girl in his bedroom, inhaling methamphetamine and displaying erratic behavior. The coroner suggested the boy's blunt force injuries might have resulted from a fall or collision with furniture, attributed to the disorienting effects of the drug. The coroner's findings underscore the dangers associated with the production and consumption of methamphetamine among adolescents, highlighting the need for increased awareness and preventive measures against drug abuse.
