File Under: People are still losing their damn minds. Associated Press, via Century Link:
ALTOONA, Pa. (AP) — A new mother has been charged with smoking the powerful synthetic stimulant known as bath salts two days after she gave birth, while still in the maternity ward of a central Pennsylvania hospital.
Online court records don't list an attorney for 31-year-old Carla Murphy, of Altoona, who is charged with aggravated assault and various drug counts for allegedly stripping naked and fighting with staff at the Altoona Regional Hospital on June 17. She faces a preliminary hearing Aug. 8.
The Altoona Mirror ( bit.ly/NawCAx) reports hospital police had to be called to subdue Murphy after she stripped, rolled around on the shower floor, and couldn't answer questions from hospital staff.
Police later found the drugs in Murphy's personal effects and at her home.
That little Gemini baby's best chance is a new family. Yikes.
The good news? At least she didn't eat the baby. This is beginning to look like a copycat "Those-dudes-freaked-out, but-I-can-handle-it" type phenomenon. Stupid people who don't give psychoactive substances the proper respect are intrigued, and more of these cases will pop up as awareness and curiosity increases. The media will most certainly create more awareness of bath salts, therefore more incidents will occur, therefore the media will report those incidents, growing awareness. And more people will be intrigued and curious..
There are A Lot of stupid people around, so I doubt this phenomenon will dissipate anytime soon. My guess is that these incidents will occur in locations where there is already heavy methamphetamine manufacturing, distribution, and usage problems.
