26 Year Old Woman Takes A Powerful PCP-Like Animal Tranquilizer & Stabs 2 Girls, One in the Heart

CanadaA near deadly double stabbing involving booze, drugs and three women after a Christmas bash at an Edmonton strip club has led to a Grande Prairie woman going to prison.
Tamara Lynn O’Neil, 26, was handed an eight-year penitentiary sentence Friday after pleading guilty in Court of Queen’s Bench to two counts of aggravated assault.
Justice Sterling Sanderman called it a “truly inexplicable” event and took O’Neil to task after noting she had “directed violence at two young innocent women who did not deserve what happened and continue to wonder why.”
Sanderman spoke of the “moving” victim impact statements written by the pair – one who is in a wheelchair and remains in rehab 16 months after the attacks – and told O’Neil her prison is better than the one they are in.
“You are whole,” said Sanderman to O’Neil. “You should think about that every night as you go to sleep in your cell and lie on your bunk. You are still whole. Neither of these two women are. And it’s because of what you did.”
The judge told the victims the “terrible violence” that was visited upon them will “haunt” them “for many years” and said he wished he could “wave a magic wand” and make them whole again and able to understand it all.
“No one will ever know why this happened to the two of you,” he said.
Sanderman told O’Neil a 10-year sentence would have been appropriate, but gave her two years credit for pleading guilty. He then knocked off 33 months for the time she spent in pre-trial custody on a two for one basis, leaving her with five years and three months still to serve.
According to an agreed statement of facts, Showgirls hosted a staff
Christmas party at their Edmonton strip club on Dec. 13, 2009, and O’Neil, an employee of the Showgirls in Grande Prairie, attended as did Nadege Gagnon, who worked at the Edmonton location.
O’Neil consumed ketamine, a powerful PCP-like animal tranquilizer popular in clubs and known as “Special K,” before arriving at the party and drank a large amount of alcohol while at the bash, as well as using more ketamine.
During the evening there was some “friendly interaction, including some kissing,” between O’Neil and Gagnon, who was also drinking, and O’Neil recalls getting Gagnon’s phone number and the address of her southside home.
Gagnon left the party about 2:20 a.m. and went home and a short time later O’Neil arrived in a taxi. She was invited in and the pair began drinking with Jessica Durbau-Benfeito, a friend of Gagnon’s who was staying there.
O’Neil was invited to stay the night in Gagnon’s bed and recalls having sexual activity with her. Gagnon does not recall that and says she remembers O’Neil kissing her and biting her on the neck while they were both standing and then rebuffing O’Neil’s sexual advances.
At some point after that, O’Neil grabbed a Kershaw knife she had and began attacking Gagnon, stabbing her multiple times in the neck, back, chest, abdomen and head.
Court heard O’Neil “never said anything” during the “incomprehensible” attack while Gagnon screamed for Durbau-Benfeito to lock herself in her room and call 911.
Gagnon fled the bedroom – still completely naked and seriously wounded and bleeding – and went outside in the frigid cold in a panic trying to get help from neighbours.
Meanwhile, O’Neil went down the hallway towards the bathroom and met Durbau-Benfeito. A confrontation erupted and O’Neil stabbed the woman multiple times in the chest, left armpit, left eyebrow and left shoulder.
Durbau-Benfeito lost consciousness and O’Neil left her lying on the floor, went and grabbed her clothes and fled the home, climbing a fence and leaving a blood trail.
Court heard she flagged down a passing motorist and asked for a drive to a hotel, but the person flagged down an approaching police car and O’Neil was arrested.
Meanwhile, Gagnon tried unsuccessfully to get neighbours to help while naked in the minus 40C cold and suffered severe frost bite to her ears, hands and feet.
She ended up returning home, weak from blood loss and frightened, and calling 911. When police arrived, they found her lying in a semi-unconscious state in her living room.
Durbau-Benfeito was found unresponsive in the hallway and both women were rushed to hospital.
Gagnon, 32, required immediate emergency surgery and ended up with significant scarring. Durbau-Benfeito, 23, was in even worse shape because one of the stab wounds had pierced her heart and she went into cardiac arrest.
She was eventually resuscitated, but suffered significant brain damage which resulted in her being unable to speak or walk. She has been in rehab since and can now speak, but remains in a walker or wheelchair.
In a victim impact statement, she wrote of her energy and breathing problems and the psychological trauma she is experiencing and said she is “afraid for her future.
“I am trapped in a body that doesn’t work anymore. It’s like a jail sentence and I am innocent of any crime.”
Gagnon wrote in her victim impact statement that she has scars all over her body, including the ones in her mind, from the “brutal and horrifying” attack and said they are a “constant reminder of the horror of that night.”

I'm not gonna lie I feel for the victims. I am not following the story perfectly but it sounds like a total disaster. Ketamine can be dangerous w/ alcohol, a lot of dissociation. Sounds more like PCP to me.

Ketamine doesn't combine with alcohol well at all. If its at all pure that's a good way to get completely incapacitated from violent projectile vomiting. I remember doing a med large dose once and not being able to go to the bathroom for about 45 min because I couldn't remember how my legs worked. I highly doubt the credibility of this. My guess is that it was something else sold as ketamine. I was looking over at Erowid, and PCP seems to show up as powder just as often as the liquid which was sometimes around when I was younger. I have never done it myself, I don't know something about Onley's Lesions and auto-cannibalism... I could see PCP even being sold as ketamine. I mean PCP is pretty heavily stigmatized where as ketamine really isn't. Kind of like some one selling heroin as opium to a couple stoner kids who don't know any better.

Reading the story as a trip report reads
"During the evening there was some “friendly interaction, including some kissing,” between O’Neil and Gagnon, who was also drinking, and O’Neil recalls getting Gagnon’s phone number and the address of her southside home.
Gagnon left the party about 2:20 a.m. and went home and a short time later O’Neil arrived in a taxi. She was invited in and the pair began drinking with Jessica Durbau-Benfeito, a friend of Gagnon’s who was staying there.
O’Neil was invited to stay the night in Gagnon’s bed and recalls having sexual activity with her. Gagnon does not recall that and says she remembers O’Neil kissing her and biting her on the neck while they were both standing and then rebuffing O’Neil’s sexual advances.
At some point after that, O’Neil grabbed a Kershaw knife she had and began attacking Gagnon, stabbing her multiple times in the neck, back, chest, abdomen and head."

I think the alcohol played just as big of a role here than anything. Remember that story of that drunk girl microwaving her baby?

Yeah, or she could have done this completely sober and we would have heard nothing if this casual assault. Obviously she's crazy. It was however the ketamine that mad her behave this way apparently. lol the "pcp-like tranquilizer".

It sickens me to see such a light sentence when so many victims get longer just for possession of a drug. This lady stabs/paralyzes 2 people in the neck, head, chest, practically takes their life and receives what looks to be an average drug case sentence. its sick

People get minimum 20 years for producing LSD and she gets what, 7 years for stabbing 2 people? fucking ridiculous
