The authorities said that the investigation is ongoing and they are still waiting for hospital records.
“We cannot, however, confirm at this time if or what specific chemical testing the hospital may have conducted,” the police continued, adding that they are working with Tara “to receive those records which she has also not received.”
“Pending those results or further information coming forward, our detectives will follow up on those leads accordingly,” the statement continued. “At this time there is no criminal act that has been committed and there is no one we are currently investigating. While we do not have any evidence that a drink was tampered with, it is a good reminder to never leave a drink unattended. If you ever believe you have been drugged or feel unsafe, please reach out to local authorities.”
After the police said that there was no footage of anyone tampering with Tara‘s drink, the Sharknado actress also released a statement.
“Bottom line is no one ends up in the hospital incapacitated for over 8 hours after a drink,” Tara shared with People through her rep. “Last thing I remember is having one drink and waking up in the hospital the next day without remembering anything.”
“That was the scariest feeling I have ever felt. I felt so helpless,” she continued. “This has been a horrifying experience for me that is severely affecting my mental health. I cannot sleep over this it’s a very scary feeling not knowing what happened to me. I believe I was drugged. Something happened to me.”
Recently, Tara called out concerns about her appearance, calling it “bullying.”
