Oops! College kid leaves pot behind in dorm room
College kids: this is just one reason you should thoroughly clean your dorm room before leaving campus for break.
A 19-year-old student at Unity College in Maine faces drug charges after security guards found several marijuana plants growing in her old room, the Associated Press said.
Annica McGuirk of Cabot, Ark. has been charged with cultivation, sale and use of marijuana.
The security guards allegedly found the pot plants - fewer than 10 - as they checked dorm rooms following the college’s graduation Saturday, May 9.

You would think with “higher education” she would be able to think of a way to claim it wasn’t hers and that it was “planted” there, lol. Seriously, not the sharpest knife in the drawer.By Martha Hardcastle
