they can't do anything

I know all greentexts are fake but this gave it away for me. Schools will 100% suspend you for what anon did, even if it's not actual drugs it's still drug paraphernalia (if this doesn't stick it can be filed under the "causing a distraction" clause).

I imagined it as them just having heard rumors of what anon did and possession of actual drugs would have been their only evidence...

Also, selling people fake drugs is fraud.

You have to tell them if the drugs you are selling them are fake. It's the law.

[–] Killing_Spark@feddit.de 7 points 10 months ago

If you are a real drug you have to tell me!

[–] bug@lemmy.one 1 points 10 months ago

Seriously, every internet lawyer thinks any case of anyone lying ever is prosecutable fraud

None of the students are going to admit they tried to buy drugs

[–] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

one of them must have, how else did OP end up in the office with the cops?

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Teacher finds bag, is as naiive as the kid, assumes weed and asks where did you get this? Kid drops the name, teacher calls cops thinking (but in no way verifying) they've found a dealer. OP has conversation with cops, kid catches wind of it and realises it's better to run with "yeah it's for cooking" than "I was trying to buy drugs and got ripped off".

kid drops the name

They find the bag in your backpack

That's enough to charge right there

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yep - leading to the kind of embarrassment in the original post.

Well the cops can't do anything, who cares if you get suspended in HS that's just a vacation. This is obviously fake but that isn't what gave it away lol

Lmao, the cops can arrest you for no reason. In this case "suspected of selling drugs" is probable cause. I'm pretty sure selling fake drugs is illegal, anyway.

There were a few kids arrested when I was in high school. The cops didn't ask shit. They just showed up, arrested them, and left.

Here's at least one state where misrepresenting something as a controlled substance then selling it is punishable even what was actually sold is unregulated

America, not even once.

How could they prove that he was selling it? Listen in reality what would happen if this actually happened was the cops get mad at whichever administrator called them for wasting their time.

How could they prove he was selling it?

It's kinda obvious that one of his customers got caught and flipped. That would be proof enough for expulsion at least.
