That whole story smells.
I am with Genie here - OD’s - junkie logic kicks in so he tosses the bodies outside, goes back to sleep and then acts like “what..I don’t know - they were partying and I fell asleep”.
1 drunk and stublmes around outside and freezes - plausible - 3 - unlikely.
The “friend” seems to have a pretty shitty alibi and a suspect past. Doubtful we ever get the full story here - including from the surving family who seem more interested in blaming cops and pursuing the city versus acknowledging their loved ones had problems. This wasn’t just a bunch of buddies getting together to watch a game and then someone drugged them / gave them fentanyl as they seem to indicate in a mass murder plot.
It’s sad / but no sadder than the 1000s of others dying in this epidemic. The truly sad part is you have no idea WHAT they are putting this stuff in now. Years ago it was you had no idea what they were cutting drugs with and now you have to be afraid of ultra pure product.
