Bad trip turns into fines, anything I can do?
    #7744375 - 12/11/07 09:55 AM (16 years, 1 month ago)

About a month ago I had ingested some acid and proceeded to have a bad trip, in which I don't remember much of anything from the night. All of this story is from what my friends have told me and what I read on the police report.

In the end I left my house and was apparently running around outside in the middle of the road in November with just boxers and a t-shirt on. At one point I must have layed down and a person driving a car stopped, physically moved me out of the road and called the police.

Moments later, the police arrived and I ran up to them screaming and flailing around. i apparently ran away from the cops, then ran back towards the cops, then ran away, and back towards the cops, until they brought out an electronic control device and pointed it at me and told me to stop. At this point I must have stopped and they took me down to the ground and cuffed me and put me in the squad.

I freaked out in the car more, flailing around and screaming and they brought me to a local hospital ICU and I stayed there for five days and was finally released. Apparently they thought I had tried to commit suicide, either by eating acid or because I was running around and had layed down in the road.

I was charged with a disorderly conduct and obstructing an officer. Is there anything I can do? I plan on talking to a public defender but am thinking about possibly getting a better lawyer incase I could get anything dropped. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Well if you're taking the dangerous hallucinogen L.S.D., then you must be suicidal.  Right? :grin:

But seriously, why do acid/mushroom freakouts always involve people taking their clothes off?  What the fuck...

Anyway that totally sucks bro.  A good attorney might be worth the money but I couldn't know which path is better.

Good luck with all that, that fucking sucks.

I don't really think you have a defense, but see what the attorney says.

Perhaps you can plead down to disturbing the peace, if the cops aren't too pissy about the whole thing

I don't know but whenever I have a bad trip i'm compelled to take off all my clothes, I don't understand why. Maybe its like reverting to a fetal state or something.

Yes you can get down on your knees and thank the lord for such light charges.

Are you fucking kidding me? You better count your blessings, apologize to the judge and take whatever deal they offer you. You literally could be facing a page of more serious charges.

And what's with 5 days in the hospital? An acid trip lasts 6-8 hours, not days.

Haha that's exactly what I was thinking. Not only that, but he could have even been ran over by a careless driver, or even stunned or shot by the police. You're fucking lucky dude, and I don't see you getting out of either of these two really.

> And what's with 5 days in the hospital?

The entire story posted sounded a bit fishy to me, but, who knows... the symptoms described fit Datura (or PCP) rather than LSD.

> About a month ago I had ingested some acid and proceeded to have a bad trip, in which I don't remember much of anything from the night.

I've never met anybody that blacked out from LSD.

> until they brought out an electronic control device

An interesting choice of words.

> I freaked out in the car more, flailing around and screaming and they brought me to a local hospital ICU

Typically, they would have called an ambulance rather than transporting you in a cop car. Typically, they would have beaten you as well.

> and I stayed there for five days and was finally released.

Tyipcally, they would have arrested you at the hospital and transported you to jail for booking rather than releasing you.

> I was charged with a disorderly conduct and obstructing an officer.

Very light charges, thus a bit odd.

When I awoke in the hospital, a day and a half after being there, I was severely bruised and beat up, I wouldn't doubt if they beat me as I had bruises and cuts on pretty much every inch of my body. The doctors said something about having to level out something in my muscles and I'm pretty sure I was on suicide watch for atleast 2-3 of the days I was there.(edited to add: awoke in the hospital in the sense that I was aware enough to remember being awake. I had woken up on and off the day before but was so out of it I could hardly speak.)

And I'm unsure if I blacked out from the lsd or if it was because right when I got to the hospital I'm pretty sure they gave me tranquilizers or something of that matter to calm me down, so I might just have been so out of it from that that I don't remember the last bit off my trip, which would have been the part when I was getting arrested, I remember pieces of it but what I read in the police report doesn't match with what I remember so I assumed my memories had been warped somewhat.

The electronic control device was what they called it in the police report. I pretty much posted the police report as I don't vividly remember much of anything.

I think they might have been thinking of bringing me to jail, but on the way decided against it, plus I was pretty messed up physically from them arresting me.

And at the hospital I did go to jail, but got bailed out right away kind of forgot to add that.

I don't know, maybe it wasn't even lsd, I got two doses of liquid from some guy. I'm doubting anyone would someone synthesize datura to be sold as liquid, but has pcp ever been known to be sold in vials and sold as lsd? It could be possible as I have a friend that took probably the same stuff, and had a similar night, except he stayed in his house, and didn't get arrested, but had a similar reaction. Needless to say, I'll probably still talk to a public defender, and atleast see if I can stay outta jail. Not going to mess around with a real lawyer though.

I believe the story. A similar thing happened to my cousin only it was supposedly MDMA. Also I work at a hospital and have heard of trips gone wrong ending up in psych ward on more than one occaision. In most of these situations that I know about the cops were fairly lenient. In some occaisions they were total dicks while still lenient. One chick I heard about got taken to the hospital in the back of a cop car, while they taunted her the whole time i.e "bet you're glad you paid for this huh?" and "what are your parents going to think?" and m personal favourite "you're lucky we found you, you could have died." Anyway I'm not sure what charges resulted from these stories but this one seems on par with the ones I've heard.

i've had a few friends that have blacked out from powerful acid experience.. experiencing only fleeting moments of "reality" through the duration of the peak until the come-down. Combine that w/ some powerful tranquilizers at the hospital and it's quite possible that he forgot almost everything.. or at least stored it away in a dark corner of his memory banks..

to the OP.. as was said, you got pretty lucky with the outcome. Get some letters from family, teachers, landlord, etc.. stating that this is not normal behaviour... hopefully you have a job or are in school and doing well, that will also help. Assuming this is your first offense, it's quite possible that you could walk w/ no more than a fine for disorderly, some community service and maybe some counselling. Really, a very good outcome.

I don't have any advice, but man, I feel for you. I've had an acid freakout where I got taken to the hospital before, but never one that involved the cops. I know how shitty it feels to know you've fucked up so bad. Be more careful next time.

Yes, but not two hits. Assuming the story is legit, I still doubt this was LSD induced. Datura, RC, or something of that nature makes a lot more sense.

You will receive a fine, maybe community service, none of this will go on your criminal record. Disorderly is like a traffic citation. I got it at ozzfest '07 for posession of Marijuana, Thank the lord your charges are light, just pay your fine if you can't pay it all off right away call the issuing magistrate and they will set up a payment plan for you.

actually.. as small as one hit. It's all a mental thing, we should be aware of this..

beer-bong sized doses? never quite got that big.. and, anyways.. the days of trying are lonnnggg gone.

anyways.. i'd need acid to do that.

OP: eat the ticket... you got the cliche "slap on the wrist."

Anything I post is purely theoretical, and not based in reality.  All pictures are from google.

A big part of me has died inside and I don't know if it will ever come back.  Nothing makes me happy anymore.  I use drugs and alcohol to numb the pain, and my sense of humor to hide the rest.  I don't share these feelings with anyone in real life.
