[edit] Accuracy

I don't know enough about this to fix the factual accuracy, but from my limited knowledge "liquid ecstasy" is a street name for GHB. This article states he gave the girls both "liquid ecstasy" and GHB. Is there not also dispute over whether or not GHB is actually a date rape drug? Sorry I can't fix it, I just don't know enought to attempt. sinblox ^(talk) 07:38, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm a nursing student (RN). GHB is most certainly a date rape drug. Woman have died due to small doses of this drug. To give this drug, or use for recreational purposes, is a huge gamble. GHB is used in the OR. It is extremely potent and dangerous if administered by an untrained or under-trained person. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.193.122.221 (talk) 01:38, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dog

I took out the "then-unknown" part referring to "Dog." If he was an "unknown" then why did he have a TV crew? Also, that statement is unencyclopaedic. -- THEBlunderbuss 22:04, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 86 out of 87 accounts

Luster was found guilty of 86 out of 87 accounts of rape, while in the article it is stated that he drugged three women. If anyone knows the truth, can someone change it? --Soetermans 11:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

What exactly are you disagreeing with? He was found guilty of 86 counts, right? These guilty verdicts came about because of his role in drugging three women before rping them. I'm not sure what you're sking for. --LeyteWolfer 05:16, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

I think what was meant was what were the 87 counts charged. He raped 3 women, how does that correlate into 87 counts? Could a link bea added to the charg

The 87 counts were not all of rape, and nor was he found guilty of 86 rapes. The wording is now clarified, differentiating "counts" from "rape counts". --75.85.5.120 09:00, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Voluntarily Absented?

I know that's the accepted 'politically correct' term, but it just sounds silly. He 'voluntarily absented' himself? There's *got* to be a more accessible way to say that. Not to mention that the article sounds like a lawyer's report at some potins.... 207.81.138.180 04:19, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disclaimer

Is the disclaimer realy necessary, it makes the page look as if it were copied from another website (which in all fairness it probably is). if someone know if this is relay relevant or not could either put a post here or else delete the disclaimer.

Please read the article more carefully before you complain. They stated that Andrew Luster's mother included that disclaimer on the web site she registered for him. That does not say that the disclaimer is for Wikipedia. That woman registered that web site and then claimed that it was concerned citizens, and not the family; she should be held liable for a blatant lie. That family disgusts me. They have video evidence of him having sex with UNCONSCIOUS women. That is RAPE. He is not privy to special treatment as far as I'm concerned. For his family to attack those women, even though they presented video tapes of it, is just horrendous. GHB is a very potent and dangerous drug. I'm a student RN nurse. That's first semester clinical information there. Woman have died due to small doses of that drug, thanks to cowardly men like Andrew Luster. His punishment wasn't nearly severe enough as far as I'm concerned. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.193.122.221 (talk) 01:52, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
