Cooper signs North Carolina law against spiking drinks

Written By Christine Shen

An NBC Charlotte Defenders investigation led to a new law that will protect people across the state.

It started in June of 2018 when NBC Charlotte Defender Alex Shabad first reported on several cases of drinks being spiked at the Epicentre.  

Those reports led him to discover there is a North Carolina statute prohibiting people from tampering with things like Halloween candy, but not drinks.
