Grieving Parents' Drink Spike Alert For UNI Students

Devastated parents whose son died in a suspected drink spiking in student digs have launched a campaign warning youngsters at university to watch their drinks.

Colin and Mandy Mackie’s son Greg, 18, was found in the toilets of his accommodation after a party in November 2017.

A post-mortem found he had overdosed on the equivalent of five ecstasy tablets – but no trace of alcohol was found.

The Mackies, of Biggar, Lanarkshire, believe Greg was killed after his soft drink was spiked.

The first-year film and TV media student was antidrugs. As a speedway rider, he was often drug-tested after races and had planned to make a film about narcotics for his course at Edinburgh College.
