Worst cops ever, setting up an autistic teen.

[Beermeet]

The story of police entrapment of an autistic student at Chaparral High School along with other vulnerable special needs students has generated national attention. Late last year, an officer from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department posed as a high school student and pretended to befriend a socially isolated autistic teenager, immediately urging the student to sell him his prescription medication. The student refused but was later persuaded to buy a small amount of marijuana. In total, twenty-two students implicated in the undercover sting were arrested and charged with drug related crimes...~S~

Ironically, pot is now legal for all use as of the turn of the year in California. :/

Edit: neither of your links work, and I'd like to read the story.

Hopefully this works.  I cried a lot thinking of such a betrayal.

Oh, this was 2012, not 2017, unless there's a typo in the article? The attitude in California toward pot has changed a great deal, so, at least hopefully no one else will be in this situation in future.

Yes, kind of old news but I just heard about it.  I'm floored.  Just really upset me is all.  I hope nothing of the sort happens now or in states where pot is still illegal.  I'm shocked at the schools being ok with it.

I'm sure it does, sadly. Zero tolerance is a mess.
