Charleston has this image of being the holy city. There's churches everywhere. It's a big touristy place. They love to protect their image. for this to happen. It was all over the news. It was in every newspaper.

People were definitely talking about it. Patrick was very personal. He was so genuine and so nice. He just brought life to everyone and everything that he did. At the time, it was kind of just like, oh, my gosh, this college kid just got shot in his doorway. Like, what happened? How does this happen? This never happens.

Patrick was definitely an over his head after the arrest. You know, he had this money that I think he owed people for selling the drugs that were confiscated. I think he thought that he could, you know, make this big move and that, you know, that might've been it.

I know his parents wanted that to kind of be the wedding you never got to have. It was the best damn funeral, I think. I'll ever go to. Nothing will ever top that. Probably better, it's better than some weddings I've been to. It was one of a kind. One of a kind. Just like Patrick.

They were saying it was the same pill-pressed drugs and same weed. And that was just kind of when we realized the extent of what had been going on.

When the news came out about the drug ring and everything, then it was a, we don't condone this. We didn't know anything about it. This is not accepted or tolerated, blah, blah, blah. And then they just cracked down on everything. The campus security was increased a lot. I mean, it kind of turned into a dry campus for a little bit.

I think he would have rather have been at CFC in a city close to home with a bunch of his friends.

you're just kind of thrown into the middle of a city. It's not your average college town. I mean, in fact, when you get accepted into the College of Charleston, you get a pamphlet or a packet that says you've been accepted boundless, because there's no direct vicinity of the college and campus.

They're one of the few colleges in South Carolina that don't require you to live in a dorm your freshman year.

His roommates were around the same age as him but were further in their schooling. They were juniors and seniors, I believe, at College of Charleston while he was a freshman.

I mean, he was thriving at first. And then I think it got out of hand quick.

Just going from high school to college, it was like people drank and smoked weed. That was it. And then you get to college and, you know, there's ecstasy acid, molly, shrooms, cocaine, Xanax, Percocets, Klonopens, you know, just a plethora of new drugs and party drugs and, you know, try this. If you don't like it, you can do something else. So there is definitely more of a resource.

College of Charleston, you have all 12,000 of these kids living in a three-mile radius, or at least majority of them. I don't want to call them connects, but you meet people, and then they know people, and they know people.
