Drink spiking is when alcohol or a drug is added to someone’s drink without their knowledge or consent. It can also be referred to as a ‘Mickey Finn’ or being ‘slipped a Mickey’. It is extremely dangerous and illegal. Over the past few years drink spiking has become more common in the UK and has been associated with crimes such as robbery, assault, sexual assault and drug rape. The person spiking the drink wants to make their victim helpless and the drugs commonly used (like Rohypnol) to spike drink make the victim disorientated, confused, sleepy and/or unconscious.
