'Pink cocaine,' a party drug reportedly found in Liam Payne's system at his time of death, often contains ketamine, MDMA and methamphetamine — but not cocaine.
'Pink cocaine,' name-dropped in the Diddy lawsuit and reportedly tied to the death of “One Direction” alum Liam Payne, is becoming a high-profile designer drug. But the contents of the deadly party cocktail tend to fly under the radar. Payne is believed to have been on pink cocaine and other substances when he fell from a hotel balcony to his death in Buenos Aires, Argentina, last Wednesday.
” Pink cocaine originated in Colombia and is also known by the street name “tusi,” a phonetic translation of “2C-B,” a quasi psychedelic that was first synthesized by the drug pioneer Alexander Shulgin in the 1970s, the New York Times reported. Typically found in pill form and recognizable for its vibrant pink color, added to make it more appealing, pink cocaine is cheap to make but pricey to buy. A gram can cost $20 to $100, DEA Special Agent Frank Tarentino told CBS News.
