MDMA Arrest Made in Electric Zoo 2013 Death
. According to CNN, 23-year-old Patrick Morgan was nabbed by federal agents in Buffalo, N.Y., on counts of drug possession, distribution and conspiracy charges. He is charged with selling MDMA (AKA "Molly") laced with methylone to at least three attendees at last year's Electric Zoo, including a sale of 80 pills for about $1,100 to an acquaintance of Jeffery Ross, 23, who collapsed and suffered a seizure after taking the drugs. Taken to Harlem Hospital Center on the night of Aug. 30, 2013, with a rapid heartbeat and body temperature as high as 108 degrees Fahrenheit, Ross was pronounced dead in the early morning hours of the next day, according to court documents. The third and final day of Electric Zoo 2013 was canceled after a second drugs-related death and several other attendees fell ill over the course of the festival weekend. Morgan was nabbed after trading text messages with one of Ross' friends, who wrote to the suspect: "Hey it was great to see you last week. Glad we got to talk about Jeff a little it was bugging me. Just know that I no longer blame us for giving the molly to him because it was him that made the mistake of taking too much." more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
