Students charged over pot brownie prank
18 Texas school workers hospitalized due to marijuana-laced treats
Updated: 4:38 p.m. ET May 27, 2006
DALLAS - Two students have been charged with giving a high school’s
employees marijuana-spiked muffins in a senior prank that sent 18 people
to the hospital and triggered an FBI and terrorism investigation.
“I had no idea of the scope of my actions,” Ian Walker, 18, said Friday,
a day after he and friend Joseph Tellini surrendered to police. They
could receive 10 years in prison or more if convicted of felony charges.
Walker is accused of delivering adulterated bran muffins to the teachers
lounge of Tellini’s suburban school May 16 and claiming they were part
of an Eagle Scout project. When Lake Highlands High School employees ate
the muffins, they began complaining of nausea, lightheadedness and
headaches.
Most of those sickened were quickly treated and released, but Rita
Greenfield, an 86-year-old receptionist, spent two days in the hospital.
“They were just thinking it would be fun to get these teachers all silly
and giggly,” Greenfield said. “I do not think of this as a prank at all.
It has caused heartaches and hard feelings.”
Terrorism task force called in
The FBI investigated because the case involved a contamination of the
food supply at a school. A joint terrorism task force found that
terrorism was not involved, but determined the muffins contained
marijuana and turned up a surveillance video of the delivery.
Walker, an honors student at a nearby Catholic school, and Tellini, 18,
were each charged with five felony counts of assault on a public
servant, each of which carries penalties of two to 10 years in prison.
Because of the presence of illegal drugs, Dallas County prosecutors are
seeking an upgrade to the charges that could raise the maximum sentence
to 20 years, district attorney spokeswoman Rachel Raya said.
The teens were released on $7,500 bail each. Calls to Tellini’s home and
attorney were not immediately returned Friday.
Walker and his family spoke Friday in an apology-filled news conference
at his lawyer’s house.
“It was juvenile and stupid, and believe it or not, I thought I was only
participating in a senior prank,” Walker said. He won’t be allowed to
graduate with his class at Bishop Lynch High School because of the
incident, his family said.
Ian Walker’s mother, Caroline, said she first heard about the tainted
muffins while watching the news with her son.
“My first thought when I saw it, because I am a mom, was, ‘My heart goes
out to the mother of that stupid kid,”’ she said.

A promising young man's life will be ruined because of the ***** "war on
drugs." How much money is it going to cost taxpayers to imprison this kid,
and how much money in taxes would the government have gotten from this kid?
It's ridiculous.

Frankly, as far as I'm concerned, anybody who drugs anyone without their
knowledge and consent should be put in prison forever, with no possibility
of parole or release. If you don't like it, don't drug people.

I really don't care if the drugs were a heavy

Did you miss the part where an elderly woman
spent two days in the hospital? Do you have
any idea how long it takes anyone to recover
from a hospital stay, much less someone in
their 80s?
This has nada to do with the so-called war

acting irresponsibly.

Armed robbery might in fact result in less
harm than those two young men did, at least
to the one elderly women.
What if one or more of the victims drove
home while under the influence, got in an
accident and died or killed someone else?
It could easily have happened. Did they
bother to think about that?
I once argued with a friend that a person who
falls asleep in their truck and causes an
accident isn't as responsible as someone
who drinks and drives. She - who happened
to be an Illinois State Trooper and had lost
a friend and colleague to a sleepy commercial
truck driver - set me straight on that point. It's
a lesson I haven't forgotten.
People have to think about the consequences
of their actions. Drugging other people's food
is reprehensible.
Overreacting would send the wrong signal,
IMO. But so would underreacting.

Agreed.

But what is the point of punishing these two kids? If it's to sacrifice
the rest of their lives as a warning to others to think before they act,
it's doomed to failure. In a year, nobody will remember them. In twenty
when they are released, what will they have contributed to atone for
their stupidity? Nothing.
If they've never been in real trouble before, one year in the local
county jail will set them straight as effectively as twenty in the state
prison without destroying the rest of their lives.
Is your goal correcting the behavior or blood sacrifice?

"blood sacrifice"? Where in any of my posts on
this subject did I suggest the two young men
should be jailed for 20 years?
All I was arguing was that we should not blame
the "war on drugs" for personal decisions to
harm others.
Is that such a difficult concept to grasp?
Or are you trying to put words into my mouth?

The article referenced did say that they were subject to ten year
sentences, or twenty if certain conditions were found.

Agreed.
Overreacting would send the wrong signal,
IMO. But so would underreacting.
But what is the point of punishing these two kids? If it's to
sacrifice the rest of their lives as a warning to others to think
before they act, it's doomed to failure.
I never ONCE said the rest of their lives should
be sacrificed. If you want to debate the
crime and the punishment, please do so without
accusing me of something I never said.
In a year, nobody will remember them. In twenty
when they are released, what will they have contributed to atone for
their stupidity? Nothing.
I NEVER said they should be jailed for
20 years. I NEVER said anything about a
specific punishment.
If they've never been in real trouble before, one year in the local
county jail will set them straight as effectively as twenty in the
state prison without destroying the rest of their lives.
Is your goal correcting the behavior or blood sacrifice?
"blood sacrifice"? Where in any of my posts on
this subject did I suggest the two young men
should be jailed for 20 years?
All I was arguing was that we should not blame
the "war on drugs" for personal decisions to
harm others.
The article referenced did say that they were subject to ten year
sentences, or twenty if certain conditions were found.
Yep, but that wasn't the point of my post. :)

Students charged over pot brownie prank
18 Texas school workers hospitalized due to marijuana-laced treats
Updated: 4:38 p.m. ET May 27, 2006
DALLAS - Two students have been charged with giving a high school's
employees marijuana-spiked muffins in a senior prank that sent 18
people to the hospital and triggered an FBI and terrorism
investigation.
"I had no idea of the scope of my actions," Ian Walker, 18, said
Friday, a day after he and friend Joseph Tellini surrendered to
police. They could receive 10 years in prison or more if convicted
of felony charges.
Walker is accused of delivering adulterated bran muffins to the
teachers lounge of Tellini's suburban school May 16 and claiming
they were part of an Eagle Scout project. When Lake Highlands High
School employees ate the muffins, they began complaining of nausea,
lightheadedness and headaches.
Most of those sickened were quickly treated and released, but Rita
Greenfield, an 86-year-old receptionist, spent two days in the
hospital.
"They were just thinking it would be fun to get these teachers all
silly and giggly," Greenfield said. "I do not think of this as a
prank at all. It has caused heartaches and hard feelings."
Terrorism task force called in
The FBI investigated because the case involved a contamination of
the food supply at a school. A joint terrorism task force found that
terrorism was not involved, but determined the muffins contained
marijuana and turned up a surveillance video of the delivery.
Walker, an honors student at a nearby Catholic school, and Tellini,
18, were each charged with five felony counts of assault on a public
servant, each of which carries penalties of two to 10 years in
prison. Because of the presence of illegal drugs, Dallas County
prosecutors are seeking an upgrade to the charges that could raise
the maximum sentence to 20 years, district attorney spokeswoman
Rachel Raya said.
A promising young man's life will be ruined because of the *****
"war on drugs." How much money is it going to cost taxpayers to
imprison this kid, and how much money in taxes would the government
have gotten from this kid? It's ridiculous.
Ah ... these "innocent children" put drugs into
food which they gave to unsuspecting people.
I really don't care if the drugs were a heavy
dose of aspirin or marijuana or something else.
Did you miss the part where an elderly woman
spent two days in the hospital? Do you have
any idea how long it takes anyone to recover
from a hospital stay, much less someone in
their 80s?
This has nada to do with the so-called war
on drugs. It has everything to do with people
acting irresponsibly.
Stupididty should not be punished more harshly than armed robbery, should
it?
What if the old woman had died? It still would have
been murder. They shouldn't be let off for stupidity.
They were old enough to know better

Armed robbery might in fact result in less
harm than those two young men did, at least
to the one elderly women.
What if one or more of the victims drove
home while under the influence, got in an
accident and died or killed someone else?
It could easily have happened. Did they
bother to think about that?
I once argued with a friend that a person who
falls asleep in their truck and causes an
accident isn't as responsible as someone
who drinks and drives. She - who happened
to be an Illinois State Trooper and had lost
a friend and colleague to a sleepy commercial
truck driver - set me straight on that point. It's
a lesson I haven't forgotten.
People have to think about the consequences
of their actions. Drugging other people's food
is reprehensible.

No, manslaughter at most. No deadly weapon, *NO INTENT*. What's your
goal? If it's to correct behavior, the destruction of their lives by a
twenty year sentence is not really the way to go, is it?
Ever been to jail? If you haven't, never even considered yourself in
such a position, a year is a long time, not a "light" sentence by any
means. I can't see a sentence for these guys needing to be longer that
the sentence for a repeat drunk driver. I think a year would change
them.

Perhaps if the schools taught and encouraged critical thinking skills
many young lives wouldn't be wasted from lack of thought. Consider also
how much 'following your impulses' is encouraged (advertising) during
the formative years.

Students charged over pot brownie prank
18 Texas school workers hospitalized due to marijuana-laced treats
Updated: 4:38 p.m. ET May 27, 2006
DALLAS - Two students have been charged with giving a high school’s
employees marijuana-spiked muffins in a senior prank that sent 18 people
to the hospital and triggered an FBI and terrorism investigation.
The terrorism investigation was a bit much, but these guys definitely
deserve to be punished. They drugged people aginst their will, and the
shock and stress of not knowing what was happening to them could
conceivably have killed some of their elderly victims. I have no
sympathy for them, and they just gave the drug goons yet another excuse
for outlawing marijuana.

Walker, an honors student at a nearby Catholic school, and Tellini, 18,
were each charged with five felony counts of assault on a public
servant,
Yet again, reinforcing the notion that the public servant in America
is somehow "better" than an ordinary citizen.
each of which carries penalties of two to 10 years in prison.
Because of the presence of illegal drugs, Dallas County prosecutors are
seeking an upgrade to the charges that could raise the maximum sentence
to 20 years, district attorney spokeswoman Rachel Raya said.
I sure am glad they weren't shooting someone. Of course, the penalties
would be less, provided they just winged them.

the day I put the uniform of my country. The freedoms that I was

is dead. All we are waiting for now is rigor mortis.
