Kid passes out marijuana brownies at school, 10 suspended

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) – A batch of marijuana-laced brownies led to the suspensions of nearly a dozen JCPS students. The incident happened on Wednesday at Eastern High School.

“It started from a child making some brownies, doing whatever he felt like doing to them and bringing them to school,” said Crystal Fuller, a parent whose child is one of the suspended students.

Fuller claimed her son ate part of a brownie but did not know it was laced with pot. “He looked like he was stoned,” said Fuller.

Shelly Stephens said her daughter also ate a portion of one of the brownies. “She wasn’t aware of the fact that there was marijuana in the brownie,” said Stephens.

The principal of Eastern High School told WAVE 3 that parents were immediately notified. Stephens took her daughter to a hospital. Fuller also sought medical help for her son.

The district confirmed that 10 or 11 students were suspended for eating the pot brownies.

“I am furious,” Fuller said, emphatically. “I feel like, how do you penalize a victim? Why weren’t the police called? Why wasn’t an ambulance called? Why wasn’t anything done except for, ‘we’re going to suspend your kid?'”

The principal told WAVE 3 that an on-site retired nurse helped students. The principal said an ambulance wasn’t called because it wasn’t considered an emergency situation.

“They need to get them back in school,” said Stephens. “That’s their education. These ten kids, as far as I’m aware of, they’re good kids.”

JCPS said the two parents and their suspended children are appealing the punishment.

The student who made the brownies was also suspended and could face criminal drug charges as a juvenile.
