AUSTIN, Texas – A Texas teenager was charged with assault after six students were hospitalized when they ate marijuana-laden brownies he served them at a school band practice, myFOXaustin.com reported Wednesday.
Kevin Coffey, a 17-year-old student at Austin's Lake Travis High School, told authorities he didn't know the brownies contained drugs when he handed them out -- but police said text messages he had sent to friends proved otherwise.
Police said many of the students were unaware of the brownies being laced with pot and six were transported to the hospital by their parents.

They took it down to the janitor to hose it out, we also used to pitch tic-tacs and life savers into the baritone bells during practice.
I would take my kids to the ER if they started acting strange.
I’m one of the few of my generation that never did drugs, so I’m not up on the effects.
What do you expect in the Peoples Republic of Austin?
Sugar high...
Hehe (O)_(O)
Sure can. Don’t ask me how I know that.
No, and I think perhaps you misunderstood me. As a parent myself, I was agreeing with you -- that the parental reaction was appropriate, and if you look at my other comments you see that I think the joker's stupid act deserves serious punishment. And with regard to your other comments, I grew up in the 60's and know better than to trust ANYTHING somebody tells you about a drug they have in their hand.
That said, once the parents DID know the cause, and it had been confirmed, it would have been happier all around to drop the panic level and chill out. Unfortunately that does not seem to have happened.
Yeah well.
What I want to know is...
How was band practice?
“They could well have been strong enough to set off unpleasant physical symptoms like vomiting and also paranoia”
If you pinch your nose and say those words real fast,,, it kinda sounds like Urkell
Am I the only one that actually liked the band camp girl? I mean, she seemed so, you know, possible...
I suspect that the kids knew the brownies were laced with pot but the ones with out a tolerance freaked out. I don’t think the boy is guilty of assault. We had this when I was in HS they were called “ego trippers”. The ET would lie to cover his/her a$$ when they freaked out and were caught.
Captain Beefheart ???

BTW: David Frye did this bit, "Richard Nixon Goes To Jail" ...
Nixon winds up with a Hippie as a cellmate. The Hippie has a joint and lights up ...
Nixon asks to try the smoke - and tokes up ...
Nixon says, “Absolutely NO effect whatsoever” ...
After a minute, Nixon then says to the stoner, “BTW, you got a twenty-pound bag of Oreo cookies and a quart of milk?” ...
After being diagnosed, they were treated with a sloppy joes and snicker bars.
Wusses.
Laz’d hit it!
Hospitalized for brownies? This is simply stupid. Hard to imagine a worse place to ride this out.
Giving people drugs surreptitiously is wrong and I hope they throw the book at the punk who did it. But hauling your kid down to the ER is about the dumbest way to respond I can think of.

lol -- that's a great scene. They'd be sitting around playing cards or something, a light on the wall would start flashing and the siren would sound, and they'd scramble out to their griefmobiles to head to the scene.
“Not sure what to make of this one, FRiends....”
How would you feel if after eating a big meal at your
favorite restaurant, you found out that the waitress and
cook spit in you food. You looked over at them and they
were laughing at you because they knew you still don’t
know about the dog or cat meat that you just ate in that
taco. Just sayin.
Rule #1.. Never be rude to the waitress.
Rule #2.. Never reorder food when they make a mistake.
Pay for what you consumed and get out.
Rule #3.. Be very suspect of who is handing out free
brownies especially where musicians are
involved.
