Hallucinogens seized in drug arrest July 9, 2008 - northplattebulletin.com
Three people were charged with possession of hashish, LSD and psilocybin with the intent to distribute in Lincoln County Court Tuesday after a Nebraska State Trooper discovered the drugs in their car.
Matthew Holsinger, 23, from Baltimore Md.; Trinh Nguyen, 24. from San Jose, Calif.; and Lee Okraski, 32, from Boulder, Colo., were all held on a $250,000 bond after their arraignment Tuesday.
The trio was stopped early Tuesday morning driving westbound down I-80 in a 2004 Dodge Intrepid. The trooper stopped the car for speeding.
After stopping the car, the trooper smelled the odor of marijuana inside. He asked the occupants about it.
Holsinger, the driver, admitted he had marijuana with him.
The trooper then searched the vehicle and discovered 140 grams of marijuana, 120 grams of hashish, more than 1,000 hits of LSD, a number of prescription pills, psilocybin and some white powdery substance that is being tested in the lab.
The NSP also reported that Holsinger had approximately $25,000 cash on him when arrested.
In court Tuesday, Holsinger told Lincoln County Judge Kent Florom that they were moving from Maryland to Colorado.
All three suspects said they intended to hire attorneys and their preliminary hearings were set for July 11.
After determining that they had no local connections, Florom set their bonds at $250,000 each. All three suspects face three Class-III felonies, punishable by a maximum of 20-years imprisonment, a $20,000 fine or both for each count.

I'd like to run my own "tests" on the substance.

Pure DMT is more a mostly clear/slightly tinted crystal, not really a white powder.

(That looks suspicious )

Nobody here agrees with the drug laws. I think we can all agree they should be repealed and people imprisoned on drug charges should be freed. That said, we also all know they exist and to flout them is idiocy. If you have hundreds of grams of drugs and thousands of hits of LSD, why are you smoking herb driving down the highway?
Is that not a stupid fucking thing to do?
Just because he got arrested on a drug charge doesn't make him a martyr. If the whole situation was avoidable and he stumbled into on his own volition and because of his own stupidity, I see no reason to put him on any kind of pedestal.

wasnt putting them on a pedestal or calling them martyrs. what i said was that it isnt a funny story like PsilocybinMike and others seems to think it is. im not saying that they handled it well either, but there is no reason to laugh at someone else's misfortune.
also, what you have read is basically the police report, you have no idea what else could have happened during the exchange to make the driver tell the cop that he had pot. if the car smells like pot, the cop already has suspicion.

Don't smoke pot in a car full of drugs?

Remember this story below? I wanted the people of this site to know the outcome of the case. I was in the car. The owner of the car is paying one fine and will be serving one months probation. There was only one official charge, attempt to possess psilocybin. My charges have been completely dropped. As for the other girl, we imagine her charges were dropped or something similar to paying a fine and one months probation.

Assuming pearandgreen is who they claim to be (no offense, but this is the internet) it should be noted the vast differences between the potential punishments and the actual sentencing. Why is this? No minimum sentencing? A sympathetic judge?

TO pearandgreen: That will teach you though. Never smoke pot when you have any other drugs in the car. It is an invitation for the police to search your ass.
