The woman who owned that animal should be brought up on criminal charges. Those things are snake mean and vicious even when hand raised and properly handled. And she should have had a shot gun at the very least incase the thing went literally apesh*t.
And giving the thing drugs to boot ... I’d rather share a house with a tiger or a lion.
From what I understand, though it is illegal to own that type of animal now, she is grandfathered in so did nothing illegal for criminal charges to be brought. If she gave it drugs that might change things which would make sense.

At least when you got tired of either of those, you could make a nice rug.
