Of course, the news is going to run with this as if it’s true, despite this “laced marijuana” apparently reaching no one but this guy and/or only causing him specifically with violent psychosis.
I guess the drug warriors have found their new way to demonize cannabis.

Neither of your options has to be true. Blaming it on weed as temporary insanity rather than the guy just being psycho is a third option.

I just don’t know that there are any other cases of ‘laced’ cannabis making people murderously psychotic and I’ve never heard of cannabis triggering such an episode either, which is why I doubt both explanations, but I’d be happy to see evidence to the contrary.

Paranoia and delusions leading to a type of psychosis are not the same as violent psychosis though. That’s what I was talking about. I don’t know that ‘the weed made me do it’ defense is one that has been tried to many times, if ever.

I’m not a mental health professional. I’m just talking about people being arrested for violent behavior or even mass murder like in this case and placing the blame on going psychotic from cannabis.
