Junior high students learn dangers lined to synthetic drugs
MINOOKA — It goes by many names, including K2, Blueberry Haze, Hawaiian Hybrid and Blaze. Those who market synthetic cannabis want users to believe it’s organic, legal and risk-free.

“I don’t care what they call it,” Markowski said. “It’s all illegal and it’s all bad for you.”
