Queens, New York (11385) – A defense attorney in Queens, New York, is claiming that a THC-laced chocolate bar sold at a local smoke shop is to blame for his client’s alleged involvement in a double murder. According to court filings, the suspect consumed the edible before experiencing a violent psychotic episode that prosecutors say ended in two deaths. The defense argues the product was unregulated and dangerously potent, sparking debate over the safety of cannabis edibles sold at neighborhood shops. Authorities, however, insist the suspect acted intentionally and are moving forward with double murder charges despite the attorney’s claims of drug-induced impairment.
