BEFORE THE RUMOR MILL STARTS THIS CAME FROM HER FATHER (THANX TRIPPER/JOHN):



Last Saturday morning Christi was found in the unfinished part of her mom's basement (close to her finished area where Christi's room was) by her mom and little brother Brent. She was basically unconscience but having a seizure. The paramedics came and took her to the hospital. She was being worked on the whole way there and while being rushed to the Emergency Room. Her heart was racing at 175 beats per minute and nothing they did would bring her heart rate down. When it finally subsided she was placed in a critical care area. Within a couple of days she had no brain activity except one minor flutter. Her father is Catholic and had the appropriate ceremony performed by a priest. Christi passed away Wednesday, October 5th at 5:24 p.m. Christi was an organ donor. Some of her organs were too damaged as was all of her tissue to donate. Life Link was able to use three of her organs to save three people's lives. Ron sent me the obituary that will run in tomorrows Atlanta Journal which I will attempt to attach. Services are Sunday. Ron welcomes everyone to come and attend. He made it quite clear that Christi loved all of her Middle Georgia friends.

Ron said Christi's favorite color was pink. He has asked that we all wear something pink to her services. He said no coat or ties just to think PINK. Christi will be laid to rest wearing a pink top and jeans. It appears a date rape drug called GHB as well as cocaine were in her system. Ron has given me permission to tell this. There is an investigation going on since a car with a loud muffler came and departed Christi's house moments before she was found.

I know everyone that can is going to attend this service. Let me know what you think and let's get together and go as a group if possible. I'll now attempt to post the obituary.

NOWAK, Christi
The celebration of Christi's beautiful, spirited, 20 years in our lives,
will be held at the Roswell Funeral Home, 950 Mansell Road, Roswell, GA on
Sunday, October 9th, the year of our Lord 2005. You may share a moment
with Christi beginning at 2:00 p.m. Services will be held at 4:00 p.m.
Friends will be received to share the memories and celebration of her life,
following the services, at Ron and D.D. Flynn's home: 722 Ivory Trail,
Woodstock, GA. Christi leaves, to cherish her memory, loving parents Ron
Nowak, D.D. and Ron Flynn. Brothers and Sisters: Tim and Dawn Nowak, Deana
and Brian Moehler, Brent Flynn; Grandparents: Olga Nowak, Betty Humbert,
Patt and Bill Humbert, Margie Flynn, Russ and Charlotte Flynn; Uncles:
Richard Nowak, Robert Nowak, Bill Humbert, Tom Humbert, Kirk Donovan, Don
Blalock, Eddie Bobbitt, Rick Whitener, Mike Haley; Aunts: Kim Pantle,
Claire Donovan, Mary Blalock, Terry Bobbitt, Joanna Nowak, Tammi Haley,
Angela Whitener. There are so many more relatives and friends to include who
love so Christi completely. Let us embrace her life as God is embracing her
now.

[fawk_you]

I read all of that on TC.com... :(

[The Ren]

Wow... im speachless..

[Julio]

foul play somewhere..

[lowjack]

foul play somewhere..

I would agree......

Christi's family will be in my thoughts, during this difficult time.

[4dmin]

It appears a date rape drug called GHB as well as cocaine were in her system

ya i was thinking the same once i heard... also, if they found her passed out, i doubt she was doing all of this alone where were her friends... its just sad.

[BTEC]

im speechless

[smiley723]

That is a scary thing. She was a great person. She will be missed.

[ironchef]

That really sucks.

[JC]

No problem Paul. As soon as I found out what was going on from Tripper, I just wanted to send it your way. Christi was a great girl and I will def. miss her. Now all we have our are memories. Here is the link to her obituary in the AJC and I encourage everybody who knew her to sign the guest book.

[B18c-rex]

My prayers and condolences go out to her family and friends. I never knew her but had seen her alot at different shows...always happy when asked for a picture with her. Someone is responsible for this the facts just dont add up. How could someone do this to such an good person.... :(

[Scrappy]

I hope her family is very strong and able to pull through this, not knowing who or what did it to my uncle is making everyone suffer more. I told a few of my family members about it, and they said "its happening too much too often now" I only hope her familys prayers and wishes are answered. Kills me to know someone even younger had to suffer from similar situation as mark did. :(

[R1craze]

So someone slipped her a date rape drug and she was doing coke? God why do ppl mess with other ppl like that and put stuff in there drinks.So wrong, makes me so angry

[IcEhOu$e]

holy shit........what a fucking shocker! LeeAnn just posted this on myspace and I had to look at IAs front page model to reassure myself of who she was, cause I thought it was someone else and not Christi that was at TF2 ........I'm like holy fucking shit it is her.........wtf happened?.........reading all this it's so tragic.........I feel so bad for the family.....on behalf of me and wTn may she rest in peace.........GOD will take care of her

[5thgcelica]

holy crap. ive seen her around at many shows... never met her..but always heard she was a good peson..

damn. slap in the face.

may you RIP christi

[Sho77a]

RIP

[PhatbacK]

wow...when i read that it gave me chills. so unexpected and heartbreaking. i lost a close friend this year too...and i know it feels. i didnt really know her...i have only seen her,but she was a pretty gurl. and her and her family will be in my prayers.

[TypeRVtec013]

Date Rape Drug and Cocaine..WTF..Thats just sad..


Anyways.. prayers go to her and her family, sorry to hear. RIP

[Darling Nikki]

Its just so weird, my boss and I were just talking about this date rape drug just the other night before I found out about all this. I really wanna know where her friends were. I mean how can someone just do something like this to her, its just so sad. Its a sick, sad world out there. This should of never happened to her :(

[BigTs13]

such a pretty girl. she will be greatly missed. my condolences go out to her family and friends. she will R.I.P. her family has my prayers

[Ruiner]

She was a dancer at The Cheetah III, correct? Or am I thinking about a different girl? We knew a lot of the same people if this is who I think it is. I'm sorry for her loss, however. Things like this are horrible.

The autopsy/investigation will be interesting to see if the cause of death was her fault or if it was manslaughter/murder (someone slipped her something or something illegal).

yeah she did

[Ruiner]

Yeah, we had (knew) a lot of the same friends/crowd in the dancer scene around Atlanta, then. I am sad to see her go.

[Twinturbo6]

My condolences to the family, friends, loved ones.

[WTF..kebe]

WTF i'm so shocked you guys i've known Christi since i was 15 we dated and what not..havent talked to her since i seen her at wild bills months ago but wow i knew she was doin good but thats so fucked up i hope who ever did that shit to her well.....it'll come back on who ever did it....anyways she will be in my thoughts for life. She was notthin but a sweet girl, i could keep on typin but i'm jus goin to end it on this note.......forever will she rest in peace... :(

[RutRoe]

God Bless her and keep her.

I'm so sorry for everyone's loss.

[DonGori]

wow i just realized who this thread was about. It took me awhile to think of it but after the pictures of her I knew for sure. I went to middle school and highschool with her (sometimes cause she had lots goin on then). She was always very nice to people when i saw and talked to her around school. It really sucked to hear about how successful and beautiful she was and not get the chance to congratulate her.
RIP and prayers are with her and her family

[Evadethishonda]

wow thats crazy to hear! RIP

[Dark Side]

My prayers and condolences go out to her family and friends. She was a great person and will be missed. R.I.P. Christi Nowak.

[rbr2328]

Let me introduce myself. My name is Beau Renfroe and my girlfriend Tiffiney and I have the website www.cocktailcove.com We met Christi a little over a month ago and asked her to be our new t-shirt model. We spoke to her last week and unfortunately did not have our new shirts ready yet. She was one of the sweetest girls I have met in a long time. She called several times eager to model for us and we have been regretting ever since we heard of this that we did not have our shirts ready to shoot last weekend. Maybe it could have been different. I have searched all over the internet for information on what exactly happened and I found you guys. It seems she had the same impact on everyone she met. It's rare to meet somebody so eager to volunteer themselves for others with nothing in return. If there is anything we can do don't hessitate to send me an email [email protected]

I hope whoever is responsible for this is brought to justice whether it is by the law or by the street! My sister went through a similar situation a few years ago and spent almost 2 months in intensive care so this hits close to home.

It sounds as though she was loved and will never be forgotten. There is no doubt heaven has a new angel.

Beau

[Boosted S60R]

She was a very nice girl. So terrible.

[AtifSajid]

WHAT. I just read this. NOOO WAYYY!!!

[JC]

The funeral was very moving and emotional for everyone that attended. It was nice to see a few familiar faces out there paying their respects. She will be forever missed.

[fawk_you]

I agree, it was nice. Im sorry that we had to see each
other on such bad terms.... I havent stopped crying since.
:( She will be forever missed.

[DJ XtRaK©]

yes the funeral was very moving and touched me greatly...it was good to see alot of people there paying respect...she is going to be missed....

[Sh0rtys]

i saw her this year at HIN :( , RIP and respects to her family

thanx for the post

[fawk_you]

Others know more than what is posted, and due to respect of the family-
its best not to post up everything that has been known.... until its proven
for sure. Or told otherwise by the family.

[Ruiner]

I guess I'll wait until the final police report and investigation.

[fawk_you]

Thats a good idea.

[rickgiblin]

wow. i never met her but she seems like she was an inspration to everyone that she talked to. i just wish that i could have met her. she was so young and it seems that she had alot going for her. she will be missed and always loved.

[Pablo]

This was a shock to me when I heard about it on tuesday. Paul, Julio and I have been trying to get all week about what happened. There is definatley some shady shit that happened there.
I am very sad about this because I have know Christy for years and she was always a great friend to me. We were supposed to see her at NOPI and never did. The last time I saw her was when we shot her for the site at my house with Marshall's Corvette.
You will be missed and never forgotten.

[eViLMunkey]

I'm still trying to get more info from my friend that grew up w/ her...

[fawk_you]

#2 is all I am saying so far. She had a good head on her shoulders-
on her own accord, she wouldn't touch drugs.

I think her dancing had jack shit to do with it. Just ignorance of
friends to take care of her and treat her the right way....

I will say no more. :(

[DJ XtRaK©]

well i just got home from being at the Nowaks house with my friend Noelle. i got to meet her mother, mothers friend, a good friend of Christis (Joey), and her dogs. and i must say that there was so much love and compassion in that house that it blew me away. im just saddend that i did not get to know her that well outside of the car scene, i believe that it will haunt me for a bit. i got to hear some great stories from her mom and joey about christi. she lived a very eventfilled life, a very joyfull life, and very loving life. like i said before, im just very sad that i did not get to know her better.

[R1craze]

Why in the hell was she on cocaine, thats just asking for trouble. I mean why do ppl do that crap anyways.

[fawk_you]

Why in the hell was she on cocaine, thats just asking for trouble. I mean why do ppl do that crap anyways.
Listen here noob, dont ask stupid questions about her, esp.
considering you didnt know her. She was a great person, in
her past, she did make some wrong decisions, in the recent
months though- she had straightened her life out... and this....
.....she wasnt on drugs.

[CMO]

Damn, sorry to hear that.


R.I.P.

[Kevykev]

As much as this hasn't been brought up, she was a dancer at the Cheetah. Nothing wrong with that, but I will wonder if the investigation leads back to the dancer scene. Those who are involved in the scene and/or personally know people who are in it know exactly what I am talking about as I will not explain further. Once again, I will be curious to see the results of the police inquiry into her death.

I'm sure the investagtion will lead there, if not already present.

[Scrappy]

Why in the hell was she on cocaine, thats just asking for trouble. I mean why do ppl do that crap anyways.

You sir are a fucking asshole, learn some fucking respect for someone, and for the people that are hurt by it. forgot you must live the perfect life and never made mistakes :2up:

[fawk_you]

Thank you Krissy.

[Scrappy]

Trust me brandon, I know but the way he had to say things. You have said them with respect, and I am with you on many left open questions of all that was discovered. Every person knows it can harm and now even end lifes instantly. One person VERY close to me does it and knows the consequences of it, but still chooses to do it. but it doesnt mean to not see that a person good at heart and accept that she is gone, for any reason. Once the truth comes out, if she did it, or if someone else did it, Shes gone and nothing will make that change. Thats the reality right now with me and my own uncle. We know he didnt do it, but it still hurts to know what killed him and that still to this day no one even himself is at fault.

[fawk_you]

He does bring up a good point, though. Cocaine is typically done out of your own free will while GHB can be slipped into your drink. Can be, but that doesn't mean that it was or wasn't for that matter. Once again, I'll wait until the investigation results are released before I comment.

Dont make assumptions until you know the truth. The people
that knew her well... will not agree with a fucking word you said.

It wasnt his fault, as I believe it wasnt Christi's own either. :(
You cant change the past, and make them come back however
you can fight for the better good of knowing that whoever did do it
gets prosecuted.

[Ruiner]

Dont make assumptions until you know the truth. The people
that knew her well... will not agree with a fucking word you said.

But I didn't make assumptions. Please re-read what I said. I left everything open. I am sad that she is gone as I knew her through the dance scene and not the car scene. However, anything right now that is stated as a "definite" in terms of what happened is all speculation until the police investigation comes out.

[thinkfast®]

soch hostility in this thread!

this reminds me of that part in Suicide Kings when the "widow maker" took all the guys money, and he did that gesture, w/ his hands?

[fawk_you]

Thats true, but you are making her out to be a person she
was not. Ask anyone who knew her well.... you're just
upsetting me.

[Scrappy]

Im trying to keep the hostility down, and let some see reality. Lea anne, I hope to god she didnt do it to herself, but like I am trying to say. We ( I mean we as in her friends, people that only know whats given information, and the people that know the truth) can only HOPE. That guy said what he wanted in the wrong way, Brandon is giving legitimate reasonings and questions as from what he knew of her and about her.

[fawk_you]

Ill look at whatever side I want to. I have nothing more to say.

[quickdodge®]

I agree with Ruiner. I have no idea who she is. Except that she was a model. The GHB was probably given to her. Cocaine is not usually the drug of choice for someone to force on someone else. That is usually a "by-choice" only drug. I'm not saying she did do this, but not everyone knows everything about everyone. I am sorry to see someone so young, that seemed to have a lot going for her go like this. Later, QD.

[Scrappy]

^thank you

You would. And you are right, It is a by-choice drug, however if you have a date rape drug in your system, you will have no clue what is going on with your surroundings. Who is making you take what, offering you what...etc.etc. As ive stated before, she's been clean for a long time now-- its not something she would do esp. when she has so much going for her at before her time of death.... I dont think anyone would want to try and ruin what opprituinities they had going for themselfs esp. if they were going to make it big.... :)

I will have my mindset as to what I knew of my friend... her mothers statements and the nurses as well....

[Hulud]

well why dont we just stop assuming and wait for a report?

[fawk_you]

exactly.
:rolleyes: Go back to heaven, we dont want you here.

[quickdodge®]

You would.

That means?

Like I said. NO ONE knows everything about everyone's actions. NO ONE. Not even you, fawk you. I hope she wasn't on it. But we don't know. Later, QD.

[fawk_you]

It means exactly what I wrote. I dont know everything, I have my beliefs though.
And as I have stated, Im sticking to them.

[quickdodge®]

You stated that "I WOULD" agree with Ruiner. Trust me. This(as is not everything ) has nothing to do with you. You act like you were her close and personal friend and that you knew everything about her.

You know what? This isn't even the time or place to discuss this. Later, QD.

[Hulud]

well why dont we just stop assuming and wait for a report?
^^^^^^

[The Yousef]

well why dont we just stop assuming and wait for a report?

agreed....

assumptions tend to be a motherfucker...so let's all wait for the official report...

[Hulud]

everyone needs to stop acting childish and trying to blame someone for a death.

all that matters here is that she has passed on and lets discuss her not what happened to her

[quickdodge®]

Hulud. No assumptions have been made. Just theories or questions. Later, QD.

You know what? This isn't even the time or place to discuss this. Later, QD.

Just a guess that it was, im sorry I am very emotional right now, ive had a rough 2 weeks.... I did not know everything about her, I got on the right path to learning though- we had our ups and downs and we both finally opened up to each other, and the past few months we've gotton really close and she's helped me out through alot of shit... now that she's not here, I dont know what to do.

My apolgoies.

This thread was meant to remember her not argue about how she passed away or offer your insight. Lets just remember her as a beautiful person who touched a lot of lives.

[Hulud]

So someone slipped her a date rape drug and she was doing coke? God why do ppl mess with other ppl like that and put stuff in there drinks.So wrong, makes me so angry

As ive stated before, she's been clean for a long time now-- its not something she would do esp. when she has so much going for her at before her time of death.... I dont think anyone would want to try and ruin what opprituinities they had going for themselfs esp. if they were going to make it big
there are two assumptions one for each side

there is no reason to fight about this

thank you someone else is thinking

[R1craze]

I am sorry wasnt trying to sound like a ass. Just makes me mad when young ppl get fame and they are hot and THEY usually turn to drugs. I never understood why ppl did hard core drugs thats all.

Hello. I am Christi's cousin. I am 45 days younger than her and she grew up in my house for a few years with my family. She was such a wonderful person, and selfless to a fault. I appreciate the sentimentality shown in this thread, it seems she left a lasting impression on most of you as she has to me. To clear things up I want to explain a few things about Christi. She had a pretty rough childhood and did not make the safest choices. But she went through her trials and overcame them. She was on a brilliant path. To those of you who were able to attend the funeral, you heard my grandfather tell how she recently wrote the family an email stating her goals. Nobody doubted her ambition and ability. She had plans to go to college as soon as the beginning of next year. No matter what you feel about the situation or Christi herself, the best way we can appreciate her affect on us is to learn from it, and love others the way I have no doubt she loved each of you. Do not judge, in any way, her or her circumstance. I have come from a family of addictions and bad choices and you find that at a certain point, you are not in control. Going out this way was not Christi's decision.

I have had a very rough time with the situation and continue to, still. I don't judge anybody in any situation, but do offer this: if you have an addiction, no matter what it may be, look to correct it. If you cannot for the sake of yourself, then do so for the sake of others. There are always alternatives, just educate yourself. Cocaine, for example, is replacable by caffeine (high amounts, but still). In Christi's case she did not overdose on cocaine, it was not cut with anything bad, and it was unlikely that it was mixed with GHB. The most likely case of the death, aside from the negligence of whoever she was with, was the cocaine was too pure--which means it was too potent and her body couldn't handle it. It can happen to anyone, no matter how many times you've done it before or gotten from your dealer before. If you need the stimulant, please look for an alternative.

Thank you for your love and memories and prayers.

Out of curiousity, which I am sure a lot of people are wondering, what was the cause? This isn't intended to start anything. Just wondering. Later, QD.

[PSINXS]

i dotn wanna be rude either, but she was very pretty. sorry she's gone

[Scrappy]

I am with mike on wanting to know which caused it or if anything else was at play or fault. If able to be said that is. We respect the privacy of her family and knowledge of the tragedy, but very curious :(

[Undertow]

I think this is a very sad story. It really shows you that...."Tomorrow might never come".....Hope she left this world with peace.

[Cobalier]

She was an old close friend of mine. Me and her lost 2 close friends of ours when we where goin in to the 7th grade. We"ll all be together again someday. My condolences go out to the family and friends
RIP

[Elrichthain]

That's not being rude, she was beautiful, as everyone knew. Taken from "http://alcoholism.about.com/cs/coke/f/coke_faq06.htm", "In rare instances, sudden death can occur on the first use of cocaine or unexpectedly thereafter. Cocaine-related deaths are often a result of cardiac arrest or seizures followed by respiratory arrest." ...Christi was a rare instance. She seized, most probably, immediately or shortly after insufflating, and it caused massive brain damage. Which, I might angrily add, could possibly have been remedied with immediate medical response.

[Scrappy]

If any questions we ask are too personal just let us know. Alot of questions have been asked and trying to clear up the nonsense that shouldnt of come about. Self-induced or were other parties involved in the situation, and charges of manslaughter if someone else is involved or is this case pretty much closed?

[quickdodge®]

Damn, that's horrible, dude. Was this something that she did while at home that evening, or someone do this to her?

Also, thank you very much for your patience and answering questions. I would just like to see others learn from something. Not that I would wish for her or anyone else to be the teacher, but you get what I'm saying? Later, QD.

thnx. i just didnt wanna get yelled for caring about how she looked after she passed.

edit: I just read what else u typed. OMG i am so sorry tht happened.i dont know what to say. i have seen too many of my former friends lose it to coke.

[Elrichthain]

The way I see it is that the more information that is known, the less people are to speculate and pass blame. Christi is innocent of her actions and nobody judges her, so I feel it is not too personal. I love her very much and I know she would want people to know the truth. The truth is that she has tried to get out of her situation many times and has successfully done so. As fawk_you stated earlier, she has been clean for quite a while, but that does not mean she was not prone to succumb to peer pressure or any other factor. Those who have had addictions or have been close to others who have know the impact that it has on your life, and once you've used a substance before it's easy to return to in difficult situations. It is not her, but the drug that took over.

That being said, the cocaine was most likely self-induced, but the death was the responsibility of another party. She was dropped off at her mom's house while seizing, and left for dead. There is an investigation going on to find who could have done that, but nothing significant has been found yet.

[Scrappy]

That will sum up alot of the information for people, thank you. And yes I know from a sibling that addictions are easier to pick back up, than to be clean. Its a very sad thing to know and We all hope the best and to know who did it.

[quickdodge®]

She was dropped off at her mom's house while seizing, and left for dead.

I'm sorry for the questions, but I'm just wanting to understand. I've never been around a situation like this before, so i don't know how it goes. I don't want to sound mean, but again, curiousity kills me. Would she be able to be dropped off at home, while seizing, and be able to get inside and downstairs without anyone knowing this? I would assume(sorry) that if there was illegal activity going on, then the people that dropped her off would not want to walk her to the door and risk theirselves. Would she be able to walk all the way inside, downstairs without being seen all while having a seizure? I'm not trying to place blame on anyone or take blame from anyone. I'm just curious how this works. Thanks, man. Later, QD.

[Scrappy]

Could she of possibly been dropped off and done it alone? done it before she was dropped off, and gone into seizures. it was said earlier that she was in the unfinished part, not in her room or finished part. If someone dropped her off and wanted it to seem unlikely they were involved, would think they would of put her in her room area? soooo many things could of happened, and hoping tests will tell time and everything to know more of the truth that is not able to be seen.

[thinkfast®]

wow....thanks for clearing things up...

sorry this happened, but you are right the more people know the better.

[Elrichthain]

Don't be sorry, like I said it's better people know at least what we know than to speculate and it turn into a disaster story. When she was brought home it was early in the morning, and it is not unlike Christi to go out and have someone bring her back. This was any of those other situations, and it was about 6:30 in the morning, to the best of my understanding.

As for the actual events that occurred...who knows. Who knows what is going through someone's mind, except fear. The person who dropped her off was definitely afraid, and probably thought that if he dropped her off then he won't get caught for providing, or accomplicing. Paranoia is a huge product of getting high, as I'm sure many in this room know. Maybe he thought that she would be fine and was just fucked up, so took her down to her room to rest it out. But of the pieces we have, she left her house, the car pulled up, stayed for a bit, then left, and then her mom heard banging and found Christi in the basement on the floor in a seizure.

[thinkfast®]

wow, that sounds like a bad way to pass away, do they have any leads or did noone see the person(s) enter the house?

[Elrichthain]

Like I said, who knows what actually happened? There is a police investigation. Other than information that I may not be able to disclose, due to the investigation, that leads to fault on the other party (I don't know legally what I can say about clues found), logically it goes to follow that it did not happen so. What I mean is that people know that the police are investigating on the possible manslaughter of Christi, and if the last person she was with was innocent, then he wouldn't be avoiding the situation and turn himself in to say what happened, right? At least, it's not helping his case by not doing so.

[quickdodge®]

Paranoia is a huge product of getting high, as I'm sure many in this room know.

Hey now! Sorry. I don't know anything about it.

I appreciate your answering the questions we've had. Knowing that they were personal and that you didn't have to say anything. It is appreciated. It is still quite confusing, but we'll see what happens in the end result. Thank you. Later, QD.

[99ITRGIRL]

wow!!!

[Scrappy]

Thank you so much for answering these, cant thank enough knowing what your family is going through trying to get your own answers and only hopes can show. My family is in the exact situation but only a few weeks into it still and have many questions, thats why mine are personal, seeing if both incidents can help bring out truths of the other. :( We are all here for you if you have any questions or need to vent.

[Elrichthain]

Thank you.

[dm1995]

dang.. RIP

[R1craze]

now please.... EVERYONE stop making assumptions, let her rest in peace, and her memory live..

like her cousin said.. make sure that you are CLEAN! you never knwo whats gonna hapen with your body..


rest in peace christi..
What do u mean u dotn know whats gonna happen with your body?

[Cliff]

you don't know how your body is going to react to certain stuff

[R1craze]

Ahhhh I c

[99ITRGIRL]

you don't know how your body is going to react to certain stuff
yup.

[Jon00]

damn im sorry to hear this RIP girl

damn i remember talking with her at hin and nopi and stuff sorry to hear this

[rbr2328]

I know GHB and this is exactly what happens. Cocaine may of played a role but what happened is GHB related. I have seen these situations more than once. I have visited many friends in the hospital when GHB was rampant in the late 90's. It is from respiratory shock. It attacks the body in many ways and alcohol and cocaine do not help.

Now for the weak ass that couldn't face the music and take her to the hospital because he was scared you made a poor decision. You have two choices at this point turn yourself in and cry your eyes out or one day find yourself crying on your knees when somebody other than the law finds out who you are and where you are. I promise you your friends will talk and I am sure you already have. You cannot hide all you can do is buy time. You know who you are and it is time to face the music.

Remember this you don't take somebody from this world with this many friends without consequences!

Although I only met her once it's like I said before I can relate to the story because I have seen this happen before and it's not fair. If anyone knows of anybody involved in this situation post it here or you are as guilty as those involved.

Sorry for the anger in my 2nd post but there is a guilty party out there.

Beau Renfroe

[fawk_you]

Thank you.
Thank you for saying what you did, I knew all of that happened and more- and I honestly did not want to say anything out of family respect. Im sorry that you are going through this hard time, as everyone else is suffering too. She was a great person, I prey to god that whoever did this to her gets prosecuted.

I may not know everything, but from talking to Christi's mom, her close macon friends, from knowing her personally... I knew that I wasnt wrong, and you proved that and believed that as well. Thanks.

[quickdodge®]

. I knew that I wasnt wrong,

I think you were. But we can discuss that elsewhere. Later, QD.

[eViLMunkey]

It's just screwed up on who all would do this to someone like her...

[thinkfast®]

I think you were. But we can discuss that elsewhere. Later, QD.

Yea, her tone totally changed once the relatives came out. Glad we have some sort of clarity in here finally.

[Darling Nikki]

Rest in peace Christi...

[elitekerse]
