More than 70 people overdose in New Haven as park visitors watch in horror
As many as 76 people overdosed on what’s believed to have been synthetic marijuana at or near a Connecticut city park as fellow parkgoers watched in horror.

Officials said most of the overdoses happened on the New Haven Green throughout the day on Wednesday.

“We have a guy laid out in the alleyway, unresponsive, eyes wide open. He’s out cold,” an unidentified bystander shouted, according to the New Haven Register.

What have YOU been smoking? This has nothing to do with smuggling or the southern border.

Lots of that synthetic marijuana no doubt.

The problem is that all of them survived.

Why are we keeping people stupid enough to do whatever the fuck K2 is, alive?

Why were these assholes not loaded into a trash truck, hauled off to a landfill and dumped?

This is why there are so many malignant leftist parasites stealing our oxygen. We keep them alive in spite of themselves.

Hard to feel sorry for people who OD on drugs...confront your problem and take action to heal. Be brave

Agree! It’s the risk they took when they picked it up.

Ditto to the above. No sympathy for those who fuck themselves up doing something stupid and self-destructive.

As a motorcyclist, the same goes for me. If I get myself killed doing something unsafe on my bike, fuck me.

Why would anyone use synthetic pot?? The real stuff is available in Colorado.

Bunch of idiots.

Two Charged After Mass Overdose at Connecticut Park..

Two Charged After Mass Overdose at Connecticut Park
AUGUST 17, 2018 - Two men were arraigned in state court Thursday afternoon on charges related to Wednesday and Thursday’s mass overdose of the synthetic marijuana drug known as “K2,” as stricken people continued to drop in and around New Haven’s downtown green.

Two men were arraigned in state court Thursday afternoon on charges related to Wednesday and Thursday’s mass overdose of the synthetic marijuana drug known as “K2,” as stricken people continued to drop in and around New Haven’s downtown green. By Thursday afternoon, more than 85 overdose cases had been treated, according to officials. New Haven police Chief Anthony Campbell said one of two men suspected of distributing the K2 was handing it out to build demand and clientele. Another suspect was charging money for the drugs. The chief said investigators believe more of the batch is still out in the community. Felix Melendez, 37, and John Parker, 53, were arraigned in Superior Court in New Haven Thursday afternoon.

Parker, 53, was arrested after officers recovered more than 30 bags of K2 in his hotel room. Court records assert he was selling packets of the dangerously strong synthetic drug for $3 to $5 a bag. He was held late Thursday, with bail set at $75,000 on a charge of possession of narcotics with the intent to sell. His lawyer, public defender Shepard Sherwood, said there is no proof that drugs Parker may have had were causing the overdoses. New Haven police also found at least 30 bags of K2 at a residence where Melendez was staying, according to court records. He is suspected of distributing the K2 that caused the overdoses but Sherwood noted Thursday that he had not been charged in that case “yet.” Melendez had been arrested in May for allegedly dealing K2 on the New Haven green. He is on probation, with five years of jail time hanging over his head. He also has four previous drug felonies on his record, court officials said. Superior Court Judge Maureen Price-Boreland set bond at $300,000 for Melendez.

New Haven police and emergency medical personnal respond to two people passed out on a bench across the street from City Hall on the New Haven Green.​

Officials at city hall Thursday said that some of the 85 overdose cases included people treated two or three times because they went back to the green to smoke more K2 after being released from the hospital. “We’ve discovered that the K2 involved was very short acting but also rapid acting version of the drug,” said Dr. Sandy Bogucki, the EMS and medical director for the Yale-New Haven Hospital region. “People who smoked it or ingested it tended to go down very fast, almost right in their tracks. And then although many of them had to be resuscitated … the effects did not last long and they were able to be discharged from the hospital fairly soon which meant they were able to return to the green and seek another high.” “This is not falling on deaf ears,” Rick Fontana, New Haven’s emergency management director, said Thursday morning. “We want to get a handle on it.”

But after New Haven Mayor Toni Harp held a news conference Thursday outlining the city’s response, a Republican legislative leader said the city has let its downtown green slip into the hands of drug peddlers and transients. New Haven spokesman Laurence Grotheer strongly disputed this, saying the upper and lower greens remain vibrant hubs. But smaller drug outbreaks had occurred in February and July. “What happened in New Haven yesterday … speaks to a painful and ugly reality about drug abuse we have to work together to combat,” said GOP Sen. Len Fasano, the Senate president pro tem. “It also speaks to a city that has allowed one of its primary community centers, the New Haven green, to deteriorate to the point where it is no longer an attraction for families or economic development, but a place of despair. The green is just steps away from city hall, and town officials know drug use on the green was not limited to just what happened yesterday. There is a known problem there that occurs every day and has not been addressed.”

Pfftt Colorado pot... MTF was the best /in the world/ and we're growing again. Alaska is where the /real/ stuff is.

Not that I particularly recommend pot personally, rather found it a waste of time and money.
