it must be some form of intoxication that impaired their judgement. 

Is there any other kind of intoxication?   For all three to have died at the same time and if there were no visual signs of trouble, seems like it would have to be something they ingested.

@monicakm When saying 'some form of intoxication' it means we don't know what the offending substance might be yet, but whatever it was rendered them unable to take care of themselves, so it was probably serious drugs, or a mix of drugs and alcohol.. When we know what it was, we'll probably have a better understanding of how this occurred.

Today's article on Fox News is saying possible alcohol and smoking weed laced with fentanyl or something called K2.  Getting overheated and going outside then falling into the snow unconscious.  Deeper and deeper into a coma till finally passing away.

@beckyb1012   K2 is known as  " fake weed". It is a mixture of herbs and plant leaves then sprayed with synthetic cannabinoids, similar to the THC found in real weed.

It is marketed as incense which can be smoked as an alternative to actual weed.

K2 can also be sold as liquid to be used in e-cigs/vape.

It is not as safe as people believe.

There is a fifth person who said he left the house while the rest were still inside. He has also retained a lawyer.

I am not jumping to blame anyone. The survivor did not use the back door according to his statement. He only found out about his friends when others concerned came to the house looking for them. I see nothing suspicious regarding retaining a lawyer for him either.

I believe weed is legal in MO so even if it was laced with fentanyl how would they know. IF they smoked weed.

Whatever shows in the autopsies it will be difficult to prove who supplied drugs if drugs are involved.

Three grown men are gone leaving families to grieve.

What really stood out to me is an adult in his 30's sleeping for two straight days....no getting up to use the bathroom or no need to get something to eat or drink in two days? 

The whole situation is very strange.  Three grown men outside, all had vehicles that they drove to the home,  and there was no sign of them trying to get back in the house if they were locked out.

Not if he was unconscious for the two days.  If our guesses are right about drugs being the cause, then they were all unconscious but those outside died due to exposure.  The guy inside could have taken two days to come out of it.  And yes, he may have woken up in a puddle of urine, very hungry.  But alive.

Weird story.  As for the families, if I was seriously worried about a family member, and they weren't answering their phone, reaching out to them on Facebook would be the last place I'd "look" for them.

I think drugs were definitely involved and they all fell victim to the effects. The one who survived was in the house and, therefore, did not succumb to the freezing elements like the others who, for some reason, went outside. The homeowner was apparently "out of it" for 2 days and didn't know what had happened. Very bizarre indeed. Toxicology test results should provide some answers.

@LuvSoCal 

I thought they lived in Texas or somewhere down south.  How could they freeze?

Well, the toxicology reports should be interesting.

Maybe the survivor didn't look in the back yard.  I don't look in the back yard every day.  Might glance out, but with things on the patio, etc.  I don't survey the yard every day.  You never know.  And they may have come with other people who left, maybe no cars etc.  Who knows?

I saw a report tonight that said a woman in California stabbed a man over 100 times, killing him, due to a cannibis-induced rage. She got probation and community service, no jail time. If weed is so harmless, why are so many committing crimes while under its influence? I know someone will say it's no different than alcohol, but it is. It can cause psychosis. Now the risk is getting it when it is laced with fentanyl or cocaine, etc.

[Trailrun23]

I thought maybe the one man found dead on the front porch may have trying to get back inside when he died. One was not wearing his winter jacket, it was inside the house. So many questions that don't have logical answers. I wonder if the fifth man has more info that is being released to the public. The houserenter certainly moved out quick and hired an attorney. Why does it take so incredibly for toxicology reports to be done? Weeks and weeks of waiting for critical info. I'll bet Nancy Grace is all over this!
