That link might help answer some questions

It's called a "roofie" for short, you can google it, I'm sure you knew that. Just get her some counseling for the rape itself, that drug wears off pretty quickly, anything that sedates a person can be used to rape someone.

i have heard of some form of drug that had been used over the years
but i couldnt remember what it was called
and in order to help your friend is to be supportive and perhaps go with her to counseling to help her deal with this

This happened to one of my friends before (twice actually, she's a slow learner). The world is a dangerous place, people get too complacent with their surroundings.

Some helpful tips:

Always know where your friends are
Never accept an open drink from a stranger or someone you don't completely trust

As for helping your friend with that particular incident, just go through the police and see if she can remember who took her home. It will be hard if there's a lack of evidence but forensics can trace DNA from even a single hair.

watch the ,ovie "hangover" and you'll understand the drug fully....

how can you help your friend, be there for her emotionally, other than that there's not too much you can do accept tell her and others never top accept a drink from anyone and if you leave the table or bar, never come back and drink what was left unattended.....

i have seen that movie and never thought thats what really happens i mean i don't believe everything i see on tv

it happens, there are over 25,000 college girls raped every year and they have no idea who, or how it happened....the drug should be banned and its use should carry a heavy sentence.

Where are you getting your statistics from?

Why do they make these sort of drugs and how do proplr get a hold of them?
Poor girl.

Roofies...bad news. Mixed with alcohol they are downright dangerous.

we're talking about one of the most hideous crimes that is perpetrated every two minutes in this country and you need statistical proof, ok, I aim to please

that's just one of the studies done, many law enforcement angencies and even colleges themselves do their own, but many of them won't publish them for obvious reasons

this is just wrong i mean why are there drugs like this anyway as far as i see they are not used to help people. seams they do more harm than anything

The drug is a very strong sedative and is used when strong sedatives are needed. It gets on the street the same way any drug does.

Do not go to parties with people you cannot trust. Your girlfriends friends should not have let her leave the party alone.

true but she only had 2 drinks they never thought about her going to the hotel room she never had to go out side just up 5 floors to the room. so either he followed her or she knew him and let him go in the room with her

Five floors in a strange hotel room? Might as well have been five miles on a dark country road.

okay so this friend was me i had 2 drinks was not feeling well wanted to go up to are room and sleep i don't remember anything after telling my friends i was going to the room

thought by telling the truth i would feel better but i just feel more shame how did i let this happen i am so stupid and even worse i don't remember it at all

It's not your fault. It happened to me but I was lucky because one of my brother's friends saw me getting escorted out of the bar by the bouncers because they thought I was drunk. I had ONE drink! I left it on the bar to dance, came back and don't remember anything after that. I'm sure whoever roofied me was waiting and I feel lucky to have escaped what you could not. I'm sorry that you went through this. It can happen to anyone!! You are not stupid and it's NOT YOUR FAULT!!!Please go get counseling ASAP! You can get through it.
