Pot Brownies Found In Local Elementary School

Source: WHMI Radio

Authorities want to know who put pot brownies in the teacher’s lounge at a local elementary school. New details reveal the incident occurred at Spring Mills Elementary school in Highland Township.

Huron Valley Schools Superintendent Jim Baker alerted staff that earlier this week a plate of marijuana-laced baked goods was left in a teachers lounge at the school. The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office say one of the school’s teachers went to a hospital after she started feeling sick. After an evaluation at the hospital, the teacher reported that she had tested positive for the presence of THC- the active ingredient in marijuana. The teacher stated that the only unusual item she had consumed was a brownie from the staff break room. Two other teachers also reportedly consumed the brownies and felt ill but did not seek medical treatment.

Deputies from the Highland Township Substation recovered the remaining brownies from the staff break room which tested positive for THC at the Forensics Laboratory. The school district is working with law enforcement to figure out who brought the brownies to school. District officials say they don't know whether they were put out intentionally or brought by mistake. The investigation is ongoing.

She probably thought she was having a stroke or something. Scary.

The other two teachers probably knew what it was, at least, and that it would be self limiting.

... and there, of course, "accidentally" is somewhat plausible.

I wouldn't mind if the "edibles" were illegal, or were required to be made to some uniform shape or packaging.

Too easy for someone to accidentally ingest the stuff.

It's MUCH harder for someone to accidentally SMOKE the stuff.

Food/products are "infused" with cannabis-not "laced". Laced infers poison. Cannabis is Not Poison.

As for the incident....This crap is Not a "funny prank"-this can be a very unpleasant time for those who are inexperienced using cannabis - or - for those who don't know What is making them "feel funny/weird". I'd likely go to the hosp too.

If this was an accident? Then Wise up and Be responsible, people!

As a retired elementary school teacher I find this rather frightening. Did this idiot not realize that teachers are responsible for these kids very lives all day and school and sometimes on the way home? I am glad there wasn't a real fire drill or an emergency at the school that would endanger students. I kept an eagle eye on my students on the playground and everywhere...being entrusted with the vulnerable lives of other people's children is a big responsibility and this act of stoning the teachers was really a dangerous and stupid idea.
