O good night cinderela, also known as “rape drugs”, is the name given to a scam in which a guy, usually sympathetic and good-looking puts a cocktail of drugs, such as gamma-hydroxybutyric acid, along with the tea drink. another person.
Usually found in the form of pills or drops; such drugs that depress the central nervous system, when given together with alcoholic beverages, alter the level of consciousness, for up to three days, leaving the victim vulnerable enough to be robbed and/or raped. In addition, they can cause intoxication or death from dehydration.
Because they dissolve easily; and being colorless and odorless, identifying a glass that has received such doses is an almost impossible task.
Relatively frequent occurrence, this scam usually occurs at parties, nightclubs, bars and the beach; providing as initial effects the same as alcohol provides. In a second moment, the individual feels sleepy and finds it difficult to react to physical and/or psychological threats, basically obeying all the commands dictated by the scammer.
Due to the embarrassment of the victims and also the lack of clarity regarding the succession of the facts, few people file complaints related to this coup in police stations. Thus, statistics are underestimated, and police action is restricted.
To avoid being a victim of this type of crime, be careful: don't bring strangers to your house, don't accept drinks from strangers, and don't neglect your glass!
