Recent interest in the use of the lethal salts, and the resultant claims and counter-claims about their efficacy, has led Exit to compile detailed information on related deaths (from nitrite and azide ingestion). These eye witness accounts are essential in order to provide readers with an accurate assessment of these relatively-new, end of life strategies. Such insights are also necessary if Exit is to counter the misinformation that is being spread as part of the Azide Wars and the Inorganic Salts Controversies.
By early 2021, Exit had received over 20 eyewitness reports of ‘nitrite deaths’, some with video footage. All deaths were relatively peaceful. The details that were noted of these deaths included: the person’s weight, age, gender, health status etc., the amount of the salt taken, symptoms experienced, time taken until loss of consciousness (LOC) and time from ingestion to death (TOD). These are the basic physiological indicators which serve to determine the manner of a death.
While these data are far from complete, the TABLE summarises the known factors of 22 deaths from 2018 to the present.
What can be learned from these data is the following:
• Metoclopramide is effective • Potentiation works but is not essential • Sodium Nitrite is legal to purchase and possess but sources are increasingly restricted
