I agree with you that it's a huge reporting fail. Double shame on the news source for still having the original article up without a disclaimer at the top.
But I disagree about what's holy isht bad, unless we are talking about the risk of criminal prosecution. From a public health perspective, though, alcohol abuse sends a lot more kids at Boulder to the hospital and morgue than bad cocaine. "Simply overimbibed" IMHO minimizes the life and death risk that these incidents pose.
