A former friend of Rachel Buffett, who was convicted as an accessory after the murders of Juri “Julie” Kibuishi and Samuel Herr, says Buffett made a troubling comment roughly a month before the killings. The account adds context to the case by suggesting behaviour that the friend interpreted as disturbing before the double murder.

The friend, Audrey, said Buffett encouraged her to take ecstasy while planning her bachelorette party. Audrey recalled Buffett saying that if she put the drug in Audrey’s drink, she would not know it had been added; the article presents this as the friend’s allegation.
