Teen's lawyer says no LSD in cookies taken to cops

An attorney for a Watauga man accused of delivering drug-laced cookies to police stations -- says his client is the victim of overzealous officers.

L. Patrick Davis represents 18-year-old Christian V. Phillips.

Davis says officers had very little evidence indicating drugs were inside the treats.

Davis also says Phillips was delivering treats for Mothers Against Drunk Driving as part of community service work after he was arrested last year at a party in Watauga.

Davis says no traces of LSD have been found in cookies taken to police in Lake Worth Village. That's where Phillips remains jailed on $75,000 bond on a charge of tampering with a consumer product.

Davis is asking a judge to lower the bond. A hearing is Monday.

Phillips was arrested this week after Lake Worth officers said they smelled marijuana in the basket of cookies.

--- The kids in jail because his cookies smelled like pot.... Nice to live in the USA

    • they just don't want the cops to get high because then they'll realize that it's actually not that bad. then they'd all leave the force and become hippies. America's beaches, parks, and universities wouldn't be able to handle the influx of newly minted flower children. So really, it's all about protecting our precious resources.

    • wow, this is coming from a city where a cop was found to have half a million dollars in cocaine on him? I think Dallas Cops need to stop getting high themselves and start taking responsibility for their own actions.

    • They said they were going to drug test all of the officers as well. We probably wont hear much about those results, however. I find this unbelievable simply because someone doing community service already would not want to incriminate themselves even more in a situation where the police know their identity. I could see this happening if it was through an organization in which an unidentifiable member put the drugs in.

    • What concerns me it the field tests they used to test the "Pot" cookies said there was Lsd and Pot in the cookies. Upon laboratory testing the cookies were found to have no drugs at all. You could be convicted on a field test that shows positive for drugs, even if no drugs are present. The test was a false positive.
