Drink Spiking Facts!

We all love a drink, whether that’s casually over a chat, on a date or on a big night out with mates. There are, however, many dangers that men and women face, after they’ve had a few drinks which can be deadly.

Drink spiking occurs when alcohol and/or another drug is placed in a person’s drink without their knowledge. Young women are common targets of drink spiking and the harms resulting include sexual assault, robbery, and unsafe sex.

Many of these substances are quickly absorbed after being consumed, resulting in rapid onset of the effects. Symptoms to look out for include:

• Feeling dizzy or faint.
• Feeling ill or sleepy.
• Feeling drunk even if you think you’ve only had a little alcohol to drink.
• Passing out.
• Waking up feeling uncomfortable and confused, with memory blanks about the night before.

The above list of signs can be related to someone who has been consuming a lot of alcohol, however, if alcohol and/or another drug has been added to drink it will happen more quickly. This is further complicated by not knowing how much alcohol the affected person has consumed earlier.

If you or a friend suspects a drink has been “spiked” you are encouraged to report it to the Police. Reporting the incident within 24-hours means a urine sample can be analysed. A positive test confirms the drink spiking and provides good evidence for prosecution. Police will be interested in all the circumstances surrounding the drink spiking such as last drink and descriptions of persons-of-interest.

The Reporting Gap

Research indicates that approximately 90% of victims do not report incidents to police. Many
incidents remain unrecorded due to uncertainty, memory loss, embarrassment, lack of evidence or
a belief that reporting will not lead to action.

Imagine how much higher these stats would be if every incident was reported!  Help look after your Patrons and clients.
