Student Caught Selling Psychedelic Mushrooms at High School....[AZ]

A student at Mt. Graham High School in Safford was arrested for possession of a dangerous drug for sale Monday after being caught with more than 13 grams of psychedelic mushrooms.

Psychedelic mushrooms are also known as Magic Mushrooms because they are fungi that contain the hallucinogen psilocybin. There are many species of hallucinogenic mushrooms, and a typical dose of the common species, Psilocybe cubensis, is about 1 to 2.5 grams.

Safford Police officer Herschel Medlin responded to the high school at about 11:18 a.m. after students reported the suspect had offered to sell them the mushrooms.

Upon arrival, Medlin interviewed the suspect, Chris Jurado, 19, of Safford, who was sitting on an ottoman next to a chair. A teacher, school counselor and a secretary were also present in the room.

Medlin searched Jurado for the contraband after receiving his permission and did not find anything illegal. Medlin then searched the chair Jurado was sitting next to and located a plastic baggie containing about 13 grams of mushrooms.

After initially denying the mushrooms were his, Jurado told Medlin he brought them to school and offered them for sale to other students for $35 per gram, according to Medlin's report. Jurado allegedly said a friend of his had given the mushrooms to him to sell and he was supposed to pay for them later. He would not tell the officer who had given him the mushrooms.

Jurado admitted to using the mushrooms a few days ago and that they had made him laugh and feel goofy. He stated he did not sell any mushrooms that day, according to the report.

Despite being used by indigenous peoples of Mexico for thousands of years and having a low potential for abuse, very low toxicity and virtually no risk of addiction, mushrooms containing psilocybin are listed as a Schedule I drug by the United States Drug Enforcement Agency. The hallucinogenic drugs marijuana, peyote and LSD are also listed as Schedule 1 drugs. Crystal methamphetamine, heroin, Ecstasy and PCP are classified as Schedule 1 drugs as well.

Jurado was booked into the Graham County Jail on charges of possession of a dangerous drug for sale, possession of drug paraphernalia and a drug-free school zone violation.

35 a gram what a fucking ripoff.

What does the author mean by this paragraph? Is he saying that shrooms are fine to try but they are schedule 1 so that makes them bad? Or is he saying that them being schedule 1 is stupid because they are not harmful?

Wow, that does suck and is pretty sad, I dont go up to random people and ask them if they want to buy some funky fungus. Kind of stupid on the kids part, well not really a kid he's 19 and yes no more programs or Juvi, his ass is going straight to county.

I'm sure they meant $35 an eighth. Journalists often make mistakes like that.

Even 35 an eighth though is a bit pricey, although I suppose I overpayed for shit in high school as well. But a gram, that's just ridiculous.

I like that last paragraph though, good to see an article about someone getting busted that doesn't demonize.
