Two students from the University of Mississippi died over the weekend, and the cause of their deaths are currently under investigation. The deaths, believed to have occurred between Friday and Sunday, have caused widespread speculation at The University of Alabama on social media and within Greek organizations due to its rumored links to laced drugs.
The Daily Mississippian, the University of Mississippi’s student-led newspaper, reported Tuesday afternoon that speculation circulating online attributed the students’ deaths to the drug cychlorphine, a highly potent synthetic opioid that does not show up on fentanyl test strips. Because of the drug’s potency, multiple doses of naloxone, or Narcan, are required to restore breathing.
The Crimson White received copies of a statement allegedly shared by the Interfraternity Council and the University of Alabama with Greek organizations across campus. IFC denied sending any messaging relating to drugs to its members.
“The University has not received any recent reports of student deaths. Neither UA nor Alabama IFC sent these messages. UAPD issues campus alerts and advisories through UA Safety’s app and social media channels,” the University and Alabama Interfraternity council said in separate statements to The Crimson White.
Alex House, a spokesperson for the University, also added that any message mentioning an alleged statement from the University “appears to be misinformation.”
Multiple social media accounts, such as Alabama Chicks and End Overdose Bama, alerted their followers of a “large drug trafficking operation from Louisiana” this past weekend.
Both accounts urged their followers to assume that “no drugs are safe whatsoever. Everything as of now is presumed laced.”
At the time of publication, the Tuscaloosa Police Department did not respond to The Crimson White’s request for comment.
There have only been two confirmed deaths in Oxford at the time of publication, and Lafayette County Metro Narcotics, a drug enforcement task force that serves Oxford, said in a statement that there is no confirmed evidence the deaths were caused by drugs.
The two deaths are not confirmed to be connected; however, during both investigations, Lafayette County Metro Narcotics found packaged kratom, a drug that stimulates “increased alertness, physical energy, and talkativeness.” The kratom found in both investigations was sold at a retail store.
“We do not have confirmed information indicating that kratom or any other substance was a contributing factor in either death,” said Lafayette County Metro Narcotics in their statement. “We ask the public to avoid speculation regarding the circumstances or cause of either death while these investigations remain ongoing.”
