[QUOTE="KPRC2, post: 25627, member: 148"] Angela Rose is worried and upset after learning that her 9-year-old daughter who is a 3rd-grade student at Krahn Elementary School ate candy infused with marijuana which was brought to the campus by another student. “I was shocked, and that’s when I started to write. At this point, everything needs to be documented because this is her medical records,” mother Angela Rose said.
