I don't mean to be thick, but isn't her dying of a combination of cocaine and alcohol proof that she used them. (ETA: I realize that the "if" was connected to attendance and use at a GLO event, rather than the use itself, now.)
I understand that it doesn't establish she was the kind of regular user that could have been addressed with intervention from the chapter.
But there's something to be learned that might help our groups if our members understand the very serious risks of using, even one time use.
I doubt most people would risk being dorky enough to try to prevent a friend from using in the moment or to to make sure they were alright if it appeared that they were under the influence (especially because a lot of us take being under the influence for granted for college kids on a weekend or at a party). However, this case is another example of how one friend, any friend, it's not restricted to GLO sisters, could have maybe saved this woman's life if they had realized her level of intoxication and impairment.
