h a e l y ⚡️ w h i t e on Instagram: "Hello, my loves: I wanted to again thank everyone for their support this past week. In my quest to ensure the safety of my community, it became something far bigger than I anticipated and there are others’ stories that deserve follow up and attention.
I have heard from hundreds of people who felt they may have been drugged, but were baffled by seeing video footage where you don’t see anything unusual placed in their drink. It was overwhelming to hear from so many people thinking they were drugged on some occasion, and the frustration of lacking concrete answers. What is clear more than anything, regardless of my posts, this is a societal issue that must be addressed.
Since earlier publicly posted details lacked key information, it’s important you hear the entirety of what happened. The video footage that I have reviewed does not show the bartender placing anything in my drink. There is an important additional detail - the footage also shows me collapsing off the seat at a booth not long after having my drink. It shows me being assisted out of the bar by a friend and amazing women I didn’t know. I am deeply touched by the women who stepped in to ensure I was okay. Thank you, kind strangers, wherever you are.
You also should know that I was completely coherent in a phone conversation with my husband just 15 minutes before entering the bar, and didn’t get my drink at The Abbey until nearly 30 minutes after arriving, at least a full hour after a drink I had at dinner. I also have NEVER felt so sick in my life with the one exception— when I was roofied many years ago. I know my body and my limits, and it was very disturbing that I could be rendered unconscious so quickly.
I mostly want to say I’m touched by the outpouring of support and, I (and many others) hear your stories. I’m still behind you and hope each can be resolved in a way that allows the truth to come out. Much love, always ~haely" | Zootzle
