Fond du Lac County Sheriff wants parents to be aware of drugs packaged as candy [Video]

FOND DU LAC (NBC 26) — As children in our neighborhoods prepare to go back to school, the Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office is warning parents about drugs in deceptive packaging.

  • The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office is warning about products that are marketed like candy but contain THC and psilocybin.
  • A local clinician says THC can be dangerous for juveniles.
  • Video shows what these products can look like.

“You look at the marketing of how these drugs are being sold and displayed and marketed… they’re targeting kids,” Fond du Lac County Sheriff Ryan Waldschmidt said. “I mean, they’re packaged as treats.”

Waldschmidt said earlier this week, a deputy conducting a traffic stop found a box full of products containing THC and psilocybin mushrooms in the car of an 18-year-old Madison man.
