So much depends on local jurisdiction/politics. And while arrests are sometimes used as a method of social control, actual charging documents are almost always somewhat political. Unless it's some place that's still worked up about "dope-smoking hippies," or still sad that they can't bust kids on dead tour anymore, mushrooms simply don't check anyone's boxes.

I heard a story about a weed grow that got raided at someone's house, where they were also growing shrooms. Nobody home at the time. Seized the plants and lights, but just sort of kicked over the shroom grow.

They left a message for the guy telling him that they had served a warrant for his weed, and that he needed to turn himself in. They also mentioned in passing that they "found something else, didn't really know what it was, but just stop doing that too, OK?"

I've heard similar enough stories about pretextual traffic stops that lead to drug searches. Same utter lack of interest in pursuing potential hallucinogenic mushrooms.

I think their attitude in a lot of places is that, regardless of how much they suspect they're looking at illicit mushrooms, actually determining/proving it is going to be a giant pain in the ass (no field test kits, etc.). And since they're not likely to be running up the supply chain and taking down kingpins, or seizing huge piles of cash and other assests, it'll just end up costing the system money. For something that literally got added to Schedule 1 as a half-concieved afterthought.

I always think about the absurdity of the situation with the spore trade. If anyone higher-up, or with any political clout, actually gave a shit, then spore sellers would be the first to go. Or be shut down by new laws.

On that note, PF's account of getting busted by the DEA is a very interesting and informative read. Probably the highest-profile federal shroom bust ever, and that only came about because dude was advertising in High Times and sending people instruction booklets at the height of the Bush Jr. Administration. Though what probably drew attention to him was just all the oogles being sketchy and fucking up their addresses, which led to a bunch of random people contacting postal inspectors when they got "syringes of drugs" in the mail.
