Teacher Accused of Giving Denver Middle School Students Cannabis Brownies
- In 2024, former Denver teacher Sharon Wilson gave two students homemade brownies allegedly laced with marijuana as a reward at Kepner Beacon Middle School.
- Wilson, 55, was charged with two misdemeanor child abuse counts after tests showed THC in the brownies, but her attorney denied the brownies contained drugs or ill intent.
- During a June 3, 2024, trial, one 13-year-old testified the brownies tasted weird and made him feel nauseous and dizzy, while another child had not yet testified.
- Prosecutor Brad Watts urged a guilty verdict for both child abuse counts, stating the brownies tested positive for THC and caused bodily injury, while attorney Ethan Ice called it a case about "missing links."
- At the conclusion of the 2023-2024 school year, Wilson was put on paid leave and had officially ended her employment with Denver Public Schools prior to the 2024-2025 school year; her sentencing date has yet to be determined.
