Somethings smells about this story. "LSD laced candies", in particular SweetTarts? I've never heard of such a thing. I've only ever seen acid on blotter or in microdots (very tiny pills), and in the days of old in gelatin ("windowpane") or powdered form. Can't really imagine someone going to the trouble of making candies out of it. I suspect something else going on and this is the best explanation they could come up with.
all you would do is put a drop on the candie it was done with sugar cubes also.
If it only requires a droplet, it could be applied to SweeTarts.
If there was no reason for the mother to believe that the candy had been "electrified" then she should be let off.
I guess - and this is just a theory - that one could take liquid LSD and drop it onto Sweet Tarts, which might be porous enough to absorb it.
Well, if I didn't feel old before, I do now. : )
In my misspent youth, I took LSD many times. When getting liquid acid, the common thing to do was put a drop of it on a SweetTart and let it dissolve into the candy (like with sugar cubes) if you didn't want to take it right away or carry around a vial of liquid. I suppose other candies would work, but for some reason it always done with SweetTarts.
