Garrison's lawyer, Harland Braun, just told the judge there is evidence that his client may have unwittingly consumed a spiked drink at the party before the fatal crash.
Braun said Lane told investigators that someone handed him an orange drink that "tasted somewhat salty."
Braun suggested the drink could have been spiked with GHB.

10. Here we go again - 16 of these articles about Lane Garrison in about an hour and 15 minutes. An all time record for TMZ - even Paris Hilton did not get this kind of coverage.
Cease with cramming this down our throats, already!!

12. Why is this just now being brought out by his "lawyers"? How much more desperate will they/he get to keep him from paying for his actions?

13. Spare me; this guy has to do some hard time. The parents deserve some restitution - I believe the best way is in the form of punishment - some hard time.

15. this just totally goes against his PSA. I guess he should have said "Never have people drug your drink without you knowing it. You could end up killing someone like I did." All my respect for him owning up to his actions just went out the window.
