ok, suppose my kid puts REAL cocaine on a donut and takes it to school. then, the next day, your kid takes a donut with powdered sugar to school and sells it (without knowing what my kid did, and without saying anything about cocaine). is your kid committing a felony?
according to the law and the handbook (which focus on what the substance looks like, and intent to distribute, etc, but not on statements pertaining to what the substance is), it looks like it's a felony.
