Deaths of 5 Utah family members not accidental, police say

Published October 29, 2014

SALT LAKE CTIY –  A Utah couple and their three children found dead in their home last month were likely poisoned, their bodies found together in a locked room with cups next to each of them, and empty bottles of methadone and nighttime cold medicine in a trash can.

Police in Springville aren't saying who killed the family or whether one of the parents might have been involved. Toxicology results have not determined an exact cause of death, but search warrants obtained Wednesday say the family was likely poisoned.

Benjamin and Kristi Strack were in bed, with children ages 11 through 14 lying around them, tucked in bedding up to their necks, according to the search warrants. Kristi Strack had a red liquid coming out of her mouth.

Some of the bodies looked to have been positioned after they died Sept. 27. They were found by the couple's older son and Kristi Strack's mother, who said she couldn't believe "she" would do this to the kids but wouldn't elaborate, police wrote.

Investigators found empty methadone bottles, 10 empty boxes of nighttime cold medicine and two boxes of allergy medicine in their garbage, along with a red liquid substance in Pepsi cups. They also found a pitcher of red juice, a purple bucket with yellow liquid, a bag of marijuana and other medications, including sleeping pills.

Springville police Lt. Dave Caron said Wednesday he couldn't comment on the search warrant or speculate about the cause of death until results of a toxicology test come back. That's expected in late November, he said.

"Until I get those, I really don't have anything," he said. "I could come up with all sorts of theories, but it's not helpful."

The search warrant says it wasn't normal for the children to be in their parents' room because they have their own rooms.

Kristi Strack was last seen alive at 6 a.m. by the older son's girlfriend, who also lives in the home. The girlfriend went back to sleep after talking with Kristi Strack, and the house was quiet when the older son and his girlfriend left the house that afternoon.

When they returned at 7 p.m. and saw the house was still quiet even though all the cars were in the driveway, they knocked on the master bedroom door. When no one answered, the couple called Kristi Strack's mother and her friend, who helped them force it open.

Authorities have previously said the five did not die violently.

The five were identified as Benjamin Strack, 37, his wife, Kristi, 36, and three of their children: Benson, 14, Emery, 12, and Zion, 11.

Little is known about the family. A family spokesman has declined to reveal much and, at a vigil, family members declined comment.

Benjamin Strack's former boss said he worked off-and-on for six to seven years at AK Masonry, a bricklaying company, and had borrowed money in the past. Court records show Benjamin and Kristi Strack pleaded guilty to misdemeanor forgery charges in 2008 and disorderly conduct the following year.

Springville is a city of about 30,000 near Provo, about 45 miles south of Salt Lake City.

Professor beheaded in what witnesses first thought was Halloween prank

A man with a history of psychiatric problems beheaded his mother in her Long Island, N.Y., apartment late Tuesday and then dragged the body and head out onto a street, where onlookers initially thought they were witnessing a macabre Halloween prank, police and witnesses said.

Patricia Ward, 66, was killed inside her apartment by her son, 35-year-old Derek Ward, who jumped in front of a commuter train near the Farmingdale, N.Y., home moments later, killing himself, Nassau County police said. 

Derek Ward was arrested previously for gun possession and criminal mischief and also had a psychiatric history going back about 10 years. Police sources told Newsday that he also had a "drug problem, apparently."

Patricia Ward was identified by Farmingdale State College as a longtime professor who taught language arts at the university.

"There's a lot of tears, it’s a sad place today," Patrick Calabria, vice president of institutional advancement at the college, told FoxNews.com. "She was well-known, well-liked and well-respected.”

Patricia Ward, a 28-year veteran, was a very "popular and devoted" instructor at the school of 8,400 students. Counselors are being provided for students and faculty members, said Calabria, who added that the university is now considering how to memorialize Ward.

"Right now, the family is grieving, they have to make funeral arrangements," he said. "After things settle down, we’ll be in touch with her relatives to see what they’d like to do."

Witnesses told the New York Post they saw Derek Ward drag his mother's body out of the building and onto the street, where he kicked her head some 20 feet before going to a nearby railroad track and jumping in front of an eastbound Long Island Railroad train approximately 25 minutes later. Police said his body was found about a mile from the apartment, where the two had moved recently from the neighboring county.

On the street in front of the apartment, witnesses described a gruesome scene first thought to be part of a prank.

"There was blood all over the floor," neighbor Nick Gordon told the Post. "You can see smears going down the stairs ... as if somebody were pulling a body."

Witnesses told the Post that some of the woman's neighbors initially thought the headless body in the street was a Halloween prank, only to discover the body was real after attempting to lift it.

Witness Jack Imperial, 41, of Queens, was taking a taxi to a meeting when he came across the grisly scene, he told the New York Daily News.

“The body’s feet were at the curb, the shoulders were at the middle of the street. The head was across the street,” Imperial told the newspaper. “I’ve seen some gruesome stuff in my years of living ... but nothing like this. I didn’t expect to see something like this, especially not out here.”

A night dispatcher at Yellow Cab in Farmingdale, blocks from where the woman's was found, told Newsday drivers also "thought it was a Halloween prank." 

"At first, everyone thought it was like a Halloween prank," neighbor Barbara Smalls told The Associated Press, recalling Wednesday morning how she had seen the sheet-covered body. She also "thought maybe it was a mob hit or something."

"This doesn't happen here," said Smalls. "This is a very nice, nice neighborhood. People are very friendly."

Police did not initially cite any connection to terrorism, although the incident recalled last month's horrific attack in Moore, Okla., in which an ex-con and recent convert to Islam beheaded a former co-worker at a food processing plant. Also last month, a 25-year-old British man beheaded an 82-year-old woman who was gardening in her yard when she was attacked.

Symptoms of Molly or Ecstasy Overdose

The symptoms of ecstasy overdose

In high doses ecstasy can cause seizures and vomiting. The symptoms of overdose include a sharp rise in body temperature and blood pressure, dizziness, cramps, heart palpitations and vomiting. People with certain disorders – such as epilepsy, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease or mood or psychiatric disorders – are at greater risk of harm if they take ecstasy. 

Ecstasy may also contribute to death in a number of ways, including:

• Cardiac arrest
• Stroke
• Kidney failure
• Overheating (hyperthermia) and dehydration
• Dilutional hyponatremia, when the user ‘drowns’ their brain by drinking too much water.

In an emergency, call for help

If someone you are with overdoses or has an adverse reaction while using ecstasy, dial triple zero (000) to call an ambulance immediately. A quick response can save the person’s life. Don’t delay because you think you or your friend might get into trouble. Ambulance officers are not obliged to call the police. Stay with the person until the ambulance arrives and tell the ambulance officers as much as you can about what drugs were taken, how long ago and any pre-existing medical conditions the person may have.

MDMA (Molly or Ecstasy) Parental Warning

MDMA (Molly) Parental Warning

The street drug known as Molly has been implicated in quite a few deaths recently, and many teens, college students and other users are not aware of how dangerous it is. There is some confusion over what Molly is, and whether it’s the same thing as Ecstasy or MDMA. We will clear up some of the misconceptions about Molly and talk about its characteristics and dangers.

What is Molly?

Molly is the slang name for the drug also known as Ecstasy or simple “E.” The chemical name for Ecstasy is MDMA, or methylenedioxy-methamphetamine. This drug has the unusual characteristic of being both a hallucinogen and a stimulant. It creates feelings of euphoria and is associated with a removal of inhibitions. Ecstasy or MDMA “trips” can last for many hours.

There is some confusion over the terms “Molly,” “Ecstasy” and MDMA. Molly usually refers to pure MDMA, with nothing else added. However, since these are all illegal drugs, the person buying it never knows exactly what he or she is getting. This is one of the reasons using this drug can be deadly, as what is sold as Ecstasy may also contain other drugs such as cocaine or heroine – sometimes in doses that are unsafe.

Ecstasy has been around for several decades now, and has long been a popular party drug. It is especially widespread at parties, concerts and raves -events where trance or techno style music is played. Many raves are illegal and attended by teens and young adults at locations only disclosed at the last minute.

How to Tell if Kids are Using Ecstasy

There are certain signs that may indicate that a teen is using Ecstasy. These may include:

• Difficulty concentrating or short term memory loss.
• Mood swings, depression or anxiety.
• Difficulty sleeping.
• Spends time in environments where drug use is common.

None of these signs necessarily indicates Ecstasy use. These symptoms can overlap with the effects of other drugs, or other problems that don’t involve drug use.

Effects and Dangers of MDMA

MDMA increases the heart rate and blood pressure. This can be dangerous for anyone with a pre-existing heart condition. Another side effect of the drug is that it can produce dehydration if the user isn’t careful to drink fluids during the course of the trip. Some fatal MDMA overdoses have occurred when the victim suffered from overheating related to dehydration.

Some less extreme side effects of Ecstasy or MDMA include sweating, nausea, chills, muscle pain and blurred vision. In most cases, these are temporary.

Because Ecstasy or MDMA is such a powerful stimulant, it can produce a powerful letdown when the effects of the drug wear off. This can be dangerous in people who are already suffering from depression or other mood disorders. It can also cause the user to want to continue taking the drug to recapture the high.

Although the long term effects of prolonged MDMA use are still being studied, research indicates that this drug can cause memory loss and other types of brain damage. It can also harm the body’s ability to regulate its temperature, which in turn can cause heart, liver or kidney problems.

Misconceptions About MDMA

One of the biggest myths about MDMA is that it’s safe. Many medical problems and deaths have been associated with this drug in recent years. As we have seen, one of the problems is that users can never be certain what the drug contains. This makes the risk of overdosing or using a toxic substance a real danger.

Another danger is that young people who are experimenting with drugs often take more than one drug at the same time. Events where people are using Ecstasy are also likely to include the use of other drugs, such as marijuana, LSD, cocaine or even alcohol. Some users end up taking a random cocktail mix of substances, and this can lead to unpredictable reactions and sometimes overdoses.

Preventing Abuse of Molly and MDMA

There is no simple solution to the problem of MDMA abuse. It has been popular for some time, and many young people are anxious to experiment with it. There are, however, quite a few dangers associated with this drug, as we have outlined above. Some of the long term effects are still not known. The best thing parents can do is to educate their kids about the dangers of these drugs and to keep the channels of communication open as much as possible.

Fake Ecstasy Drug Kills Six in Florida

Fake Ecstasy Drug Kills Six in Florida

September 30, 2014

By Julia Campbell

A knockoff of the popular “club drug” Ecstasy is being blamed for the deaths of six young people in Florida and at least three in suburban Chicago since May, law enforcement officials said.

The clusters of deaths in Illinois and Florida, along with sporadic reports of fatalities across the nation involving Ecstasy, underscores the dangerous nature of a drug that has been thought by many to be relatively harmless.

In Florida, the fake Ecstasy, called PMA or paramethoxyamphetamine, and PMMA, or paramethoxymethamphetamine, is killing young people by raising their body temperatures to as high as 108 degrees.

The pills being sold in central Florida are believed to be more lethal than Ecstasy, which is made of MDMA or methylenedioxymethamphetamine.The pills are similar and medical experts say it is virtually impossible to tell them apart unless they are tested in a laboratory.

“It is like Russian roulette,” said Bruce Goldberger, a forensic toxicologist at the University of Florida in Gainesville. “If you get these PMA pills and take them, there is a chance you will die.”

The counterfeit pills, which are cheaper to make, were being sold in central Florida, in the Orlando area, authorities said. Florida state police were trying to determine where the drugs were made.

Florida state law enforcement officials said Friday at least six people have died in Florida since July from taking the drugs.

Drug More Popular Than Ever

Use of Ecstasy in the United States is growing more quickly than any other abused drug. Congress held hearings this summer, and legislation was introduced in both houses to increase penalties for its trafficking and possession.

Ecstasy is known as a “club drug” because of its popularity among attendees of all-night music clubs that stage parties known as “raves.” The drug is extremely popular in rave clubs in Miami and also has a stronghold in Atlanta and across the state of New Jersey. A survey by the National Institute on Drug Abuse found that about 3.4 million Americans at least 12 years old have tried the drug at least once.

In suburban Chicago last week, authorities announced they were looking into three fatalities last spring of young people who took what they thought was Ecstasy but was actually PMA. Unlike the Florida pills, the PMA tablets in Illinois each had a distinct stamp of three diamonds in a triangle shape.

State officials in Maryland announced Thursday a campaign aimed at debunking myths about the Ecstasy’s safety. In three years, 10 people have died in Maryland in cases where Ecstasy was cited as a contributing factor.

“Some people think Ecstasy is safe. It is not,” said Maryland Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend. “Ecstasy does not free your mind. It burns your brain.”

Florida officials began investigating the deaths there after looking into the death in August of a 19-year-old Lake County woman. Five hours after her death, her body temperature was recorded at 104 degrees.

Five other deaths are now believed to be linked to the lethal imitation drug. In four of the cases, the victims’ bodies contained a mix of drugs, including the PMA or PMMA, authorities said.

‘Unscrupulous Dealers’ Market Fake

Ecstasy is taken by users for its psychoactive or mind-altering properties, but health officials warn the drug can have lasting physical and psychological effects, including depression. Recent research findings show that the drug may also be linked to long-term brain damage, affecting critical thought and memory, according to NIDA.

In the fatal cases involving PMA, the victims overheat, become confused, hallucinate and finally collapse, Goldberger said. Once a person starts to overheat like that, he said, it is almost too late to save them unless they get immediate medical attention.

A large percentage of pills sold as Ecstasy do not contain the drug at all or are laced with other drugs, including methamphetamines or PCP or cocaine, said Emanuel Sferios, the national director of DanceSafe, an Oakland, Calif. nonprofit that provides health and safety information to club drug users.

Sferios said “unscrupulous dealers” are manufacturing and selling PMA and other types of fake Ecstasy because it is easier and cheaper to make than the real thing.

“Ecstasy is in high demand and people are making money by selling fake Ecstasy,” Sferios said. “The truth is that PMA is out there and it is a much more dangerous drug.” DanceSafe recommends screening the pills through home lab kits. Health officials say the test kits are not reliable.

The horror that should put everyone off Ecstasy

by ANDREW LOUDON, Daily Mail

The agonising death of a teenage student who took Ecstasy should bring home to youngsters the terrible dangers of just one tablet of the drug, an inquest heard yesterday. 

After hearing of the last hours of 19-year-old Lorna Spinks, a coroner said he was bewildered by the way Ecstasy was blithely taken by an estimated one million clubbers each weekend. 

Miss Spinks was taken to hospital with her mouth foaming, eyes bulging and a look of sheer terror contorting her face, the inquest heard. 

Her blood overheated so much that it ran through her veins 'like hot water' and would not clot when a needle was inserted. Her organs failed, her arms and legs shook uncontrollably. 

'It seems this could have happened with any sort of Ecstasy tablet at any time,' said Cambridge coroner David Morris. 'Every time anyone takes Ecstasy they must know the risks. 

'In a university town you have a high preponderance of intelligent people who seem to act unintelligibly when it comes to these matters. 

'For some reason going to a nightclub for a few drinks, hearing good music and excitement is not always enough. 

'I would have thought a group of university friends could have a good evening out without indulging in illegal substances.' 

Mr Morris added: 'No one should forget the terrible ordeal Miss Spinks endured. The effects were horrific. It was not a nice way to die. 

'A young lady who had a great future ahead of her wasted away on a dramatic night out because of this Ecstasy tablet. 

'I do hope that publicity given to the very tragic death of Lorna Spinks may cause people to think a little bit more carefully.' 

A photograph of Miss Spinks, taken moments after she died in May, showed her features contorted and her body festooned with drips and tubes. It was released by her parents at the time in a bid to shock people into realising the dangers of the drug. 

Miss Spinks, a sociology student at Anglia Polytechnic University in Cambridge, died 36 hours after collapsing at a nightclub in the city. 

The sports-loving teenager was an experienced user of Ecstasy and thought she could handle it. 

But, unknown to her and her friends, the tablets - lime green and stamped with the euro symbol - were extra-strength. 

They contained 129 milligrams of the active ingredient MDMA, compared with the normal strength of 75 to 100 milligrams. 

However, the strength of the dose may have had no bearing on the way Miss Spinks was affected, the inquest heard. 

After the hearing, her father Alan Spinks, a scientist based in Geneva, said: 'It is futile to say, "Don't take Ecstasy, don't take drugsî. But you just don't know what you are going to get. It's Russian roulette. 

'You simply don't know how it will affect you. It could be a high dose or something completely different. It could be rat poison, there's simply no way of knowing.' 

His daughter was among a group of university friends who spent a week planning their night out, the inquest heard. They decided to buy 15 or 16 Ecstasy tablets for £6 each from fellow Anglia student Aaron Strange. 

Miss Spinks hid the drugs in her bra to smuggle them into the Junction nightclub, where she swallowed at least one tablet. 

Student Dan Edwards, a former boyfriend, said he tried to help her after noticing her skin was 'hot all over'. 

He said: 'Her words were not coming out correctly. They were backwards or gibberish. She was losing all sense of balance.' 

Another friend, Aoife Logue, said: 'Her face was blazing red and her spaced-out eyes were rolling around.' 

Miss Logue added: 'I feel angry and guilty about the incident, as do all of my friends.' 

Security staff called an ambulance and Miss Spinks had to be strapped on to a stretcher because she was squirming so violently. 

An ambulanceman said she had 'a look of sheer fright'. At Addenbrooke's Hospital, staff found her temperature had rocketed to 43c (109.4f). 

A nurse said she had 'never actually seen anyone with a temperature that high before'. The normal body temperature is 37c (98.4f). 

The drug had thinned her blood, causing profuse internal and external bleeding. Eventually her lungs and heart failed and she died. 

Subsequently, Aaron Strange, 19, from Gwydir Street, Cambridge, was arrested and pleaded guilty to three counts of supplying a class A controlled drug, the inquest heard. He was not charged with supplying drugs to Miss Spinks and is due to be sentenced next month. 

Miss Spinks was born in Switzerland and went to the International School in Geneva. 

Her parents live in Cessy, on the French-Swiss border. 

Her 53-year-old father, originally from Cannock, Staffordshire, is an engineer researching into high-energy particle physics at the CERN Physics Institute. 

Her Scots-born mother Liz, 55, has an administration job there. 

Mr Spinks, who is considering launching a poster campaign on the dangers of Ecstasy, said he hoped young people would learn lessons from his daughter's death. 

He said he and his wife, who did not attend the inquest, had discussed drugs with her from the age of 13. 

'Lorna was actually blessed with rather more common sense than many others,' he said. 

'She was well aware of the risks of taking Ecstasy and if she could fall victim to this then anyone can.' 

Verdict: Misadventure.

Ecstasy-Like Drug 'Nintendo' Showing Up In European Clubs

People are getting high on Nintendo - literally.

Kotaku reports that a new and potent club drug named "Nintendo" has been spotted in Belgium.

The drug comes complete with the Japanese game giant's logo, though it goes without saying that this is an illicit use of the brand by crooks.

The Belgium drugs watchdogs said the drug contains large amounts of MDMA (Ecstasy), and is similar to other drugs with names like Mitsubishi, Superman, Li-Ion and Butterfly. (Yes, Brass Eye fans, we're aware how this sounds.)

The drug has also been seen in the UK, according to one 'Lincilnshire' [SIC]' taker's experience catalogued on PillReports.

But as gamers on the forum NEOGaf pointed out, this is arguably no laughing matter since the drug looks not dissimilar to a normal sweet or mint with the kid-friendly logo on top.

For advice and health information about drugs, Frank has a comprehensive and helpful database.

At WDT we do not condone the use of any illicit drug.  We post news we feel can be helpful to parents and concerned friends about drugs around the world.  If you feel your child or loved one is using ecstasy check out the next blog for what to look for.

Marijuana, Ecstasy and suspected black-tar heroin found during I-94 traffic stop, police say

LEONI TWP., MI – An Ypsilanti man was arrested early Wednesday after police say they found a large quantity of marijuana and other drugs in his vehicle during a traffic stop on I-94.

The 21-year-old suspect was eastbound on I-94 near M-60 when Blackman-Leoni Public Safety Sgt. Rick Gillespie pulled him over for driving 18 mph over the speed limit, according to a statement from Blackman-Leoni Public Safety Deputy Director Jon Johnston.

Gillespie initiated the traffic stop at 1:30 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 29, and found several pounds of marijuana and a cache of illicit drugs that included mushrooms, Ecstasy, hash, hash oil and suspected black-tar heroin during a search of the vehicle, Johnston said.

The suspect was the only occupant of the vehicle and was arrested for driving on a suspended license and drug-related charges. He was also wanted on a traffic-related warrant out of Washtenaw County, according to the statement.

Johnston said the suspect is not a medical marijuana cardholder and was in possession of well over $5,000 worth of drugs.

Officers said they also seized about $1,000 in cash.

The suspect has been lodged at the Jackson County Jail.

His name is being withheld pending arraignment.

• Blood pressure increases
• Headaches
• Chills
• Eye-twitching
• Blurred vision
• Nausea
• Dehydration
• Muscle tension

Note: Heatstroke (hyperthermia) is the primary cause of death from ecstasy. Taking ecstasy with in combination with other drugs, such as alcohol, can increase the risk.

Long-Term Effects

• Dramatic increase in heart rate, leading to serious complications for people with cardiovascular disease.
• Dehydration can lead to liver and kidney failure.
• Disturbing emotional reactions, confusion, depression, sleep problems, drug craving, severe anxiety, and heart palpitations. Symptoms last a long time after taking the drug.
