If the fentanyl numbers are anywhere near the truth, I think there’s gonna be a whole lot more of these weird deaths.

Just because the one guy survived doesn’t mean he had anything to do with the others’ deaths. The tox showing they did OD on fentanyl would not, on its own, implicate the survivor as being somehow responsible. He may have lucked out or not even imbibed the opioid but was drunk on alcohol alone.

I don’t know if it’s possible to be semi-comatose for two days or however many hours transpired before the bodies were discovered. The survivor guy answered the door appearing to have been on a bender. It’s possible he had no idea his friends died nor that his phone was ringing or texting, nor even that their cars were in the driveway. Blackout drunk isn’t all that rare for people with ETOH use disorder.

Addendum: ETOH = ethanol
