My girlfriend came to my house in the morning to talk through some issues we had been having. She requested a drink and I made us both a cocktail. She drank hers and half of mine. 50 mins later after a productive conversation she started to exhibit signs of drunkenness. Unsure on her feet etc.

She lied down on my bed and subsequently started screaming at me about random stuff. Subsequently she physically attacked me with her fists, shoes, kicking and throwing objects at me. A glass and more. I tried to calm her down and pleaded with her to stop.

She then headed out of my house to her car. I stood behind it to stop her leaving. She simply reversed into me and pulled onto the road. She made it all of a couple of blocks before she hit a truck on the side of the road. She then continued regardless, and hits a concrete abutment further down the road where her car got stuck. At this point she had attracted quite a bit of attention. I live on a lake and she climbed over a fence and headed towards the lake as if to jump in. An off duty LE officer or Fireman (not sure as this part of the story is anecdotal) grabbed her. she resisted him physically but he restrained her. At which point the police arrived along with an ambulance. They had to strap her down on a gurney because of her resistance, and they took her to a nearby hospital.

She was uninjured, but they ultimately tested her for alcohol impairment. She chose a breathalyzer and blew over the legal limit although not that much I believe. She was discharged from the hospital, but was detained by the police for driving under the influence. They took her to jail and put her in the drunk tank.

Approximately five hours later, I was able to get them to release her without a bond due to the lack of personal injury involved. I brought her to my home and she claimed to have blacked out from being on my bed to ending up in the ambulance. It was hard for me to understand how this could’ve happened from one and a half cocktails. She denied drinking prior to coming to my house.

Two days later, she brought up wanting to take a drug panel and insinuated that I had drugged her. She then made 13 statements to that effect in a short text dialogue.

I was both shocked and insulted, having ignored the violent assault and gone out of my way to get her, released from jail, and had retained a lawyer for her at considerable personal expense.

He subsequently withdrew from the case, due to the conflict of interest, represented by the repeated insinuations that she was making.

Two days later she alluded to having taken a drug panel. Which I thought was gonna be a good thing, and I would be exonerated at that level. However, five days after the incident, she wrote to say that they had found benzodiazepine in her system. She said that I must’ve given her this, and that it was the reason why she had acted so irresponsibly.

To be fair to her, she is not generally someone who plays with narcotics in anyway. So I was pretty surprised at the result. Although she will not show us proof of the test. She claimed to have blacked out because of the benzodiazepine and the single drink at my house.

To be clear, I had no benzodiazepines in my house when she visited and did not adulterate her drink in anyway!

So what is my question???

I would like to know if anybody else has had an experience with someone where they have a small amount of benzodiazepine in their system and had a drink and subsequently had a psychotic break and violent episode. Involving also a blackout. Assuming she did have such a drug in her system would it make her act so violently and irresponsibly, when combined with basically a single cocktail?

Beyond this, I’m wondering if a drug panel would detect a significant amount of benzodiazepine five days after the supposed date of exposure?

I appreciate any constructive feedback in advance.
