A conservative Christian beauty queen plunged to her death from an upscale Miami condo building after taking a mystery cannabis substance and suffering a 'breakdown,' DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

Zoe Sozo Bethel, the 2021 winner of Miss Alabama for America Strong, began 'acting strange' before she ran at 'full speed' towards a third-floor balcony railing, according to police.

Zoe, who has a five-year-old daughter, was overheard praying in the seconds before her February 10 fall and an eyewitness told officers she saw the 27-year-old jump.

However Zoe's brother contradicted that account of her final moments, insisting in a police interview that his sister did not see the railing and simply slammed into it and toppled over accidentally.

Tragic Zoe, an aspiring media personality from Loxley, Alabama, was in a coma for more than a week before her family announced she had succumbed to devastating brain injuries.

Cops ruled out foul play and investigated her death as a suicide attempt before later determining it was a 'tragic accident'.

Zoe's family also pushed back against suggestions she would have meant to kill herself, insisting in a statement that the 'devout believer in Jesus' would still be alive 'if she had a choice

I'm not ruling out 'Crazy'

But I do not find the witness testimony credible either

If this wasn’t suicide, then we need to redefine the term. Running full speed toward a precipice is universally known to be bad for your health.

How did she take this? Was it unknowingly?

So she instead intended to run and jump straight over the edge, unimpeded?

People are strange
When you’re a stranger
Faces look ugly
When you’re alone
Women seem wicked
When you’re unwanted
Streets are uneven
When you’re down

When you’re strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you’re strange
No one remembers your name
When you’re strange
When you’re strange

Synthetic THC sometimes causes this type of response on first use.

I attended a psychiatric ER lecture a few years ago when this first started happening. The Synthetic THC is seven times more powerful than plant based THC.

JWH-18 was a common one that was used in “Spice” and bath salts.

Really cheap to purchase too.

Ironically, the formulas were developed by John William Huffman, professor emeritus of organic chemistry at Clemson University who first synthesised novel cannabinoids. His research, funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, was focused on making a drug to target endocannabinoid receptors in the body.

Again, out tax dollars produced our toxin.

I think he meant she was on the balcony and stumbled into the railing and fell off. Either way, it’s not written well.

I did not consider that.

Quite possibly

These days it shouldn’t surprise me that a “Miss” America has a 5 year old child.

I've heard of Salvia Divinorum doing much like that headline describes. Intense uncontrollable paranoia. Its a green leafy substance and sold in head shops...or at least it used to be. I smoked a tiny bit of it when i was a lot younger and dumber. Never did a 2nd try. https://teens.drugabuse.gov/drug-facts/salvia

I dunno ....

But I’d be happy to be on the jury when the legalized pot industry starts getting sued for drug related psychoses and deaths. Do to pot what we’ve done to tobacco.

Yup, she lost sense that she was up high in a building, probably saw something “very interesting” outside, and thought she could run to it as if she was at street level.

About the only truly smart decision I’ve ever made about my life was...and is...”no booze,no drugs”.
