A lot of teenagers I know do drugs and never think anything of it. This past weekend a student from Daviess County died due to drug overdose of morphine. He was only 16. I find this very upsetting. I didn't really know him too well. Of course, I had seen him at some parties. I had been to his house several times with a friend of mine to see his sister. I never liked him but I'm not saying he deserved that. He was a big time "partier" and he thought he was in a gang. I know that his mom was aware of everything he was doing as well as his sister. He had already been high that night when he decided to eat the gel inside of a morphine patch. I didn't even know those existed... Anyways, his mom works over night or something. She got to come home that morning and find her 16 year old son dead. I can't even imagine that and I'm not a mother. His friends that were with him that night said that they didnt know anything about the morphine and only some girl did. She left him at home alone and didnt tell anybody what he had. They all knew he was high already. I'm just curious what made him want that much more of a high. Some stupid girl came up with a nasty rumor yesterday. It almost made me mad. Let the guy rest in peace. I'll go ahead and tell you the rumor. Appparently his gf gave him herpes and it was a sucicide. And the girl woke up in the night and told everyone he was really cold and thats how they found out he was dead. It looks like to me if she had gave him something he would have been mad at her and she wouldnt have been there. But idk. I'm not believing that bc kids are ridiculous. I heard about it from his bestfriend and his sisters bestfriend the first story that everyone else has heard too.
