Summary

This bill adds synthetic cannabinoids, commonly known as “Spice,” “K2,” “Genie,” “Yucatan Fire,” “Sence,” “Smoke,” “Skunk,” and “Zohai,” to Schedule I controlled substances. The bill defines “synthetic cannabinoid.” Chapter 47 of Title 16 lists various controlled substance schedules and uses these schedules in describing various offenses and penalties. “At least 10 states outlawed synthetic cannabinoids this year,” according to the October/November 2010 issue of “State Legislatures.” The magazine also says that the drug “produces a high similar to marijuana and is sold in local convenience stores and over the Web.”
