Student allegedly sold pot cookies at Corner Canyon High School

An 18-year-old has been accused of distributing THC-laced cookies at a high school in Draper.

THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the psychoactive compound of marijuana that gives the user a high.

On the afternoon of Nov. 20, a teacher reported to Corner Canyon High School administration that one of his students smelled strongly of marijuana, according to an arrest document.

The administration searched the 18-year-old student’s backpack and found cookies in a plastic bag. The cookies smelled of marijuana, the arrest document states.

The student had sold the cookies — which were made with THC butter — for $10 a pop in the West Jordan area, the teenager told a Draper detective.
