Ecstasy kills boy who made anti-drug film


A schoolboy who wrote and directed an anti-drugs film died after taking ecstasy "because he heard it was a laugh", an inquest was told yesterday.

Ben Hennessy, 15, lost consciousness after "bombing" up to four and a half ecstasy tablets with a friend, only a week after the film was first screened.
