Those Williams' boys aren't the only ones with suspension trouble looming.

I'll update when I hear more.

Perhaps we should have hooked him up with some Purple Shades and the Purple Kool Aid instead of the Purple Drank. Then he would have at most been caught on a boat with some hookers. ;D

I was wondering what came of it.

Purple Drank is some nasty pooh - it kills me what some people concoct to put in their bodies for a cheap high.
What ever happened to good old beer and MJ?
Why on earth would you look at prescription cough syrup and think "gol 'darnit I bet that would be fun to drink!"?

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

But prescription cough syrup.

Yeah...I'll pass.
If I'm that desperate to get F'd up I'll just drink myself retarded...that alone will give me plenty to regret in the morning...just enough to keep my mind off the real underlying problem that caused me to drink in the first place.

All this info out there.. and yet people still do it.

[size=14pt]Notable deaths from use[/size]
Purple drank is confirmed or suspected to have caused the deaths of several prominent users. Respiratory depression is a potentially serious or fatal adverse drug reaction associated with the use of codeine, but mainly the danger lies in the much more potent and CNS-depressing phenothiazine-related antihistamine promethazine. This depression is dose-related and is the mechanism for the potentially fatal consequences of overdose: respiratory or cardiac arrest.

DJ Screw, who popularized the codeine-based drink, died of a suspected codeine-promethazine-alcohol overdose on November 15, 2000, several months after the video to Three 6 Mafia's single debuted.[7]

Big Moe, a DJ Screw protegÃ© whose albums City of Syrup and Purple World were based on the drink, died at age 33 on October 14, 2007 after suffering a heart attack one week earlier that left him in a coma.[12] There was speculation that purple drank may have contributed to his death.[13]

Pimp C, widely influential Port Arthur, Texas rapper and a member of rap duo UGK, was found dead on December 4, 2007, at the Mondrian Hotel in West Hollywood, California. The Los Angeles County Coroner's office reported that the rapper's death was "due to promethazine/codeine effects and other unestablished factors." Ed Winter, assistant chief of the coroner's office, said the levels of the medication were elevated, but not enough to deem the death an overdose. However, Pimp C had a history of sleep apnea, a condition that causes one to stop breathing for short periods during sleep. "In tandem with that malady, the cough medication probably suppressed the artist's breathing long enough to bring on his death," Winter said.[4]

[size=14pt]Other notable incidents[/size]
In September 2006, the late Terrence Kiel, a San Diego Chargers player, was arrested during practice for the possession with intent to sell prescription cough syrup for use in making the drink.[3] Kiel was caught trying to ship a case of syrup to a friend via Fed Ex. Kiel was charged with two felony counts of transporting a controlled substance and three counts of possession for sale of a controlled substance.[14]
