Louella Michie, the youngest daughter of John Michie, was found dead in the wooded area of the forest on the edge of Bestival site following an overdose of ecstasy and ketamine. The area was less guarded and was visited mostly by the drug users during the festival. A friend who saw her in that area spoke to Sun stating,
"Her eyes were usually so beautiful but, when I saw her on Sunday, she didn't look very well at all and was unsteady. Her eyes weren't good then. She looked odd and didn't look very happy."
Her boyfriend, Ceon, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of her murder and dealing the Class A drug that might have been the reason for her death. Turns out Louella is the first person to die from taking the 2C-P drug as there have not been any reported deaths from it before.
