Linden Hills Man Charged for "Magic Mushrooms"

Linden Hills Man Charged for "Magic Mushrooms"

He told police he prefers the effect of mushrooms to other psychedelic drugs, according to the criminal complaint.

By Jon Collins
May 16, 2011



Two Minneapolis police officers had detained two people for drinking under the Hennepin Avenue bridge on May 9 when Ryan Avalon, 28, approached. Police heard him yell, "Hey guys," after which they believed he was going to urinate on the side of the bridge, according to the criminal complaint.

After a short pursuit, police searched Avalon's backpack and allegedly found 196.8 grams of mushrooms. Avalon told them that they were magic mushrooms and that he bought them for $200 an ounce, according to the complaint.

A forensic scientist from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension identified them as "hallucinogenic mushrooms."

Avalon, who has no criminal history, faces up to 25 years for possession of a controlled substance in the second degree. He was released from custody with no bail. His first court date is June 7, 2011.

I have paid $200 for an oz. before.  With bulk u think it'd be cheeper though.  $200 an oz is a lot though and I no longer buy mushrooms : )

I'm just in shock honestly. First we have first-class-dumbass walking under a bridge with 6 Oz of boomers in his bag who wants to take a leak. But do you have to get the cops attention while you do it!?!

So he faces 25 years and they let him go with no bail. Think I would find a new place to reside ASAP.....

I'm guessing that he had eaten a good big handful out of that half pound.

note that the police only believed he was going to urinate. he shouldn't have given them pursuit. i like his billy-goatee though  :strokebeard:

My thoughts too. I've read stories about similar scenarios. One was a florida man who had a zip lock bag full of fresh cubes in his pockets and was trippin balls walking down a road when police were cruzing by. They would have drove right past him had he no actually flagged them down to pronounce he was tripping mega balls and carrying. I get the whole I wanna be open to the whole world on shrooms feeling but, fucking cops?:facepalm:

I mean seriously.

reminds me of the time I was walking around the same city block repeatedly tripping balls with a sackful of shrooms in my pocket.

I would've gone somewhere else except I couldn't figure out what i was doing

I can totally see how that can happen while tripping. You're just having such a great time. Man would that be a buzzkill though.

I've had multiple buddies facin the same possible sentence and they always get probation. White shroomheads generally don't go to prison. Fortunately, judges tend to use their discretion when sending druggies to jail. Not that it's fair, but if this would have been a black dude with any drug, I'd be betting against probation.

Yeah right. Obviously found guilty. 25 years. I'd much rather live out my days in a forest.



ditto. even being a stanky forest man, livin off elk-turds, would be preferable to incarceration

Why would you fuck around when you've got almost a pound and a half of shrooms in your bag?

I wish we could read more articles about smart people and how they do  things but only the dumbasses get caught.

Long hair, big beard, dazed and confused demeanor and then implying you're gonna take a piss on a bridge...still is too much for the pigs. It's like a black dude cruising down the highway at 80mph in a cadillac escalade with kilos in the back

I've seen them around Denver for anything from 500 a lb to 10 dollars a gram. And everything in between.

The 500 lb were from Oregon of course.

thats me i messed up i just drank a few beers the cops wouldnt have known that i had to pee but i told them after i was in the back of the police car. i went to the bridge started to walk down near a bush and then noticed three cop cars and yeah i said "hey guys" reluctantly. i wasnt on any shrooms i was a lil sad cuz im homeless and my girl left me in minneapolis while she went to a farm 3 hours away. she said she felt releived when she found out i got arrested only 2 hours after we said goodbye. ive already spent 4 years in mental hospitals cuz of how messed up the united states health care system is. i would rather die then be locked up for 3 more years of my life. i dont beleive we should spend our life running from the law for doing what we think is right. freedom isnt free if we have to live in fear for being ourselves. im not that dumb but what i was doing that day was retarded. i think if my friends had my back and let me stay with them none of this wouldve happened. its hard being homeless even if ya have alot of drugs. i hope people learn from the mistake i made. i hope one day we can live in world where all drugs are legal in designated areas. 3 days b4 my arrest i was protesting the drug war with a megaphone. if anyone has any inspiring words for me i could use them my life already feels over the one person i really care about treats me like a outcast. no one deserves what happened to me and smart people get caught too. my number is
612 XXX XXXX may all your mushrooms not find the same fate mine did.
