“I'm completely devastated to have endangered the family I hit, I'm obsessed with it, for the baby who died, I pray that the other people stay alive. My relationship with drugs must be resolved, let drugs be banned from my life. I am dangerous because of drugs, I am a good guy.declared the accused during his first interrogation before the investigating judge. “I recognize the unconsciousness of having taken the car with this drug, all the narcotics, which I never or very rarely do”added the man who was then consuming 3M™, an even harder and more addictive synthetic drug that boosts sexual desire.
