A 30 year old man accused of ripping out 18 of his girlfriend's teeth when the pair were under the influence of GHB was found not guilty this week after his girlfriend told the court she'd pulled them out herself.

25 year old Samantha Court said she'd been heavily addicted to the drug and had started pulling her teeth out after hallucinating that a luminous green and pink fly had flew into her throat. She said that after struggling to extract the first tooth the rest had "seemed to fall" adding that she'd felt no pain, during the incident.

Paramedics called to the house found her covered head to toe in blood, surrounded by teeth. The couple remain together and have perhaps sensibly now given up GHB.
