BURNABY, B.C.
— An initial drug screening report suggested Myles Gray had a natural psychoactive compound in his system when he died, but followup testing revealed a concentration that didn't meet the threshold for detection, a forensic toxicologist told the British Columbia coroner's inquest into the 33-year-old's death.
A paramedic told the inquest this week the man's bruising was so severe, he initially thought Gray was not Caucasian. He told the inquest in Burnaby, B.C., that the general screening performed at the time of Gray's death looked for "well over 200" different drugs with the goal of flagging potential findings, but it should not be used on its own as evidence.
At higher concentrations it can have an opioid-like effect, and it also interacts with dopamine and serotonin, with the potential for effects similar to those of some antipsychotic and antidepressant drugs as well, he said. Shapiro said the general screening for Gray also detected a substance formed in the body after the consumption of THC, the main psychoactive compound in cannabis.
