Wonderful " medicine"
Do you realize how many BILLIONS have already been spent on this ever losing "war on drugs". I'm talking just since Bush took over back in 1988, so 30 years now and NOT A DENT.
It is ABSURD to speak about cost when we can't seem to lose enough money arresting otherwise law abiding citizens.
Abe Lincoln said it best: “Prohibition... goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes... A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded.”

Apparently, one piece of candy was enough to get a user high. But some people consumed the whole bag (20 pieces). Naturally, these folks had a very bad trip, and some probably thought they were dying. Whether they required medical help, or just a comfortable environment to ride the trip out is up for debate. Not sure why they gave an opiate overdose medication for THC. Sounds like a spectacular waste of money all around.
I recall a police officer that had the same issue and had to call 911.
