Walking around a club with syringes and hypodermic needles then injecting people without them noticing or someone else seeing is near impossible. If you have ever actually had to use them it’s pretty obvious that it’s stupidly impractical. If you wanted to drug someone that’s the least likely way you’d do it when you could put the same drug in a drink way easier (not advocating for that, clearly).
This is right up there with cannabis laced edibles being given out for free as halloween candy and the Croydon cat killer being real in terms of credibility.,
So she was at a club after visiting “quite a few bars”
Yeah was definitely spiked and totally didn’t under estimate how much shed had to drink.
Fairly certain this is misaligned news craft.
I first interpreted it as in people were getting their drinks spiked by means of syringe. Like Emanuelle Beart did in Mission Impossible 1?
Then it seemed to take off and people re-interpretated it as people were actually being physically injected with some kind of paralytic agent, only to be carried off for lurid purposes.
Having been spiked once or twice in my time, I can’t think of a more dumb way to be spiked.
I mean, you get spiked in your drink, it’s he said, she said. You get jabbed by a syringe, and you’d know you were jabbed and would scream blue murder.
Patrick Bateman wouldn’t even go that far.
But even if it did start out as a misinterpreted fad, there will actually be wanton copycats who will actually go out and put jabs into people’s arms.
But then, on the other end of the scale, you’ll have every other teenager (male and female), claiming to have been syringed after having one too many and feeling like they want to re-frame their actions as not self-inflicted low-level alcohol poisoning.
It certainly is a weird one and reminds me of the 90s fad of dealers spiking E’s with Rat Poison.
This is a very real and serious issue. Even had several cases of needle wounds on the oxford/cambridge ski trip. Whether they are successful in drugging people or not, there are a considerable number of nutters stabbing people with needles on nights out.

Still don’t believe this “trend” I’m afraid.
