MyspaceThe Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Department arrested a Santa Ynez High School student on March 3 for giving marijuana-laced cookies to a schoolmate who ended up in the hospital. The Sheriff’s Dept. responded to a call from Santa Ynez High requesting medical attention for the girl on Tuesday afternoon. The student was taken to SYV Cottage Hospital, where she was examined and later released.
After an investigation, deputies learned that 18-year-old Rodrigo Guzman brought the pot-laced cookies to school and shared them with the victim and one other student during one of their classes. Although Guzman and the other classmate did not report being ill, all three are believed to have eaten the cookies. All three students are suspended from school and there is an investigation pending as to whether the cookies were homemade or from a marijuana dispensary.
Guzman was booked into Lompoc Jail on Wednesday, March 3, for furnishing marijuana to a minor (a felony) and contributing to the delinquency of a minor (a misdemeanor). Bail is set at $20,000.

She went to the hospital for a freaking pot cookie? He shouldn't have done what he did with it, but seriously, unless he managed to condense a pound into one cookie (doubt even this idiot would be that stupid with that much weed) I seriously doubt anyone needed to go to the hospital. Maybe a nap. I hope health insurance stays private so whomever decided it was necessary to send her to the hospital for getting high off a pot cookie has to pay for it (or via higher premiums), not me, the tax payer.

And the both of you are able to diagnose a teenager over reading an article?
What a stupid thing for a person to do, give a pot cookie to an unknowing person. What else could be in the cookie? LSD? Roofie? Since you two know everything maybe you could comment.
Marijuana, it doesn't harm anyone... yeah right....

Pot does not belong in school. However, nowhere does the article say she ate the cookie unknowingly. The side effects of eating too much weed are just like someone who drank too much. Dizzyness, throwing up.... the same thing I went through when I polished off a bottle of jack daniels while I was of high school age (didn't do it AT school). Like this person, I had to find out this information the hard way when it comes to marijuana edibles. At least you can't die of Marijuana poisoning like you can of Alcohol. Had they smoked the stuff, none of this would have happened since this delivery method offers none of these side effects no matter how much you consume. If those who are so worried about the danger of marijuana weren't hipocritical, we'd have plenty of discussion about the poison which is alcohol.
