The world is still reeling from the news of Liam Payne’s tragic death at just 31 years old on October 16. As details continue to unfold, a toxicology report has provided critical insights into the circumstances surrounding this heartbreaking incident. The former One Direction star fell from the third-floor balcony of his hotel suite in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the report indicates that a cocktail of substances was present in his system at the time of his death. Among these substances, the emergence of pink cocaine has sparked concern, particularly due to its prior association with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in a prominent lawsuit.

Liam Payne Death: Toxicology Results Show ‘Pink Cocaine’ in His System
What Is Pink Cocaine Or Tusi?
Pink cocaine also known as Tusi, as explained by DEA agent Bill Bordner, is not what its name implies. While it suggests a blend of cocaine, it comprises a mixture of synthetics, including ketamine, ecstasy, and methamphetamine. Ketamine, known for its dissociative effects, can create feelings of detachment from reality. Bordner further explains that the bright pink hue of the drug comes from food colouring, often infused with strawberry flavouring, making it deceptively appealing. This substance, referred to as Tusi or Tuci on the streets, is used both as a stimulant and a depressant, originally surfacing as a party drug in Latin America. The mixtures might drive individuals to act out of character, increasing the likelihood of erratic conduct, according to Dr Brian Hurley.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Connection
The connection between Liam Payne’s untimely death and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs extends beyond mere coincidence. Earlier this year, Diddy faced allegations in a lawsuit filed by his former music producer Rodney Jones, who claimed the music mogul required his staff to carry a variety of illicit substances, including Tuci. This substance, known for its unpredictable effects, was found in Payne’s toxicology results, linking the two men in a troubling narrative surrounding substance abuse and erratic behaviour.

The Connection?
What happens when you mix ecstasy, ketamine, caffeine, and a psychedelic drug known as 2-CB?
You get “Pink Cocaine”.
It’s mentioned in #Diddy‘s cases and may be linked to #LiamPayne‘s death.
Probably obvious, but it causes hallucinations, and it’s dangerous. #SeanDiddy pic.twitter.com/S6FHYPTeLA
