Targeted by Drug Dealers

A friend of Liam has alleged that he was singled out by drug peddlers who supposedly supplied narcotics to his hotel room despite him having been clean for an extended period.

Speaking to Mail Online, the friend disclosed that Liam had sought treatment for addiction in both the UK and California and had recently started seeing a new psychiatrist in Florida, who was helping him on his journey to sobriety.

“He went to Argentina to renew his USA visa where he had to undergo medical examination because of his history with alcohol and drugs,” the insider claimed. “The results of the tests were good. Liam was 100 per cent sober. But when he checked in at the hotel, at some point someone there started giving him drugs.”

They stated that Liam had made considerable efforts to remain sober but alleged, “they preyed on him,” accusing those involved of prioritising money over the star’s wellbeing.

Hidden drugs in Dove soap packaging

An investigation is underway at the Casa Sur Hotel, with two employees now under scrutiny following Liam’s passing. Sources claim a cleaner and another staff member are suspected of concealing drugs inside a Dove soap box, which has reportedly been discovered by the police.

In Liam’s hotel suite, apparent signs of drug use were found, including white powder residue, crystal substances, tablet forms, and assorted drug paraphernalia. In the wake of the celebrity’s untimely demise, investigators are purportedly exploring possible connections to high-profile narcotics dealers, reports suggest.

Class-A substance detected post-mortem

Forensic experts have found evidence of cocaine in Liam’s system, Argentine media have declared. The news outlet Infobae reported that an autopsy performed after his death last Wednesday revealed traces of the Class-A substance.

Yet, tests conducted by the authorities on white powder located in his hotel room have thus far yielded “inconclusive” results. Furthermore, a second, more definitive analysis called chromatography is anticipated to shed light on the composition of the substance.

Illicit substance dubbed ‘pink cocaine’

Infobae, a reputable news source, has reported that autopsy results suggest the presence of class-A drugs in the system of the star who passed away last Wednesday. ABC News also stated that amongst these substances was “pink cocaine”, feared for its combination of lethal ingredients such as MDMA, ketamine, methamphetamine, cocaine, benzodiazepine and crack.

Pink cocaine is becoming notoriously popular in the party circuits of Latin America due to its hallucinogenic qualities, capable of inducing an altered state of reality. The drug is a concoction of synthetic ingredients which typically include MDMA (also known as ecstasy), ketamine, and various amphetamines.

Additionally, certain versions are known to pack even more powerful hallucinogens like LSD, mescaline, along with dangerously potent opioids such as fentanyl.

‘Hearing voices’

The tragic narrative has drawn comments from Lamar Odom who suspects Liam might have been plagued by auditory hallucinations caused by the substances he consumed. Following reports about the One Direction star following his recent death revealing pink cocaine in his system, a drug blending numerous Class A substances.

Odom shared his insights from personal experience. The former basketball athlete related to TMZ, “drug can cause you to hallucinate and if he was in a hallucination state then who knows what happened”.

Currently leading a life in recovery, Lamar Odom now heads the Odom Recovery Group as someone who’s familiar with the perils of addiction.

Gemidos, a well-known portal in Argentina, is a platform where hundreds of women across the nation offer companionship, complete with photos and detailed descriptions.

Inside the room, the atmosphere was said to be relaxed. The singer offered the women drinks – champagne for them and a bottle of scotch for himself.

According to their statements to the police, no drugs were taken. Half-empty glasses scattered around the room bore witness to the brief companionship they shared.

In their testimonies, both women denied any involvement in Liam’s death, stating that they had spent a short period with him, consumed alcohol, and left when a dispute over payment arose. Neither woman confessed to having been intimate with him, carefully avoiding the topic during questioning.

Despite their evasiveness, Prosecutor Roma trusts their accounts and does not view them as suspects.
