Tampa family sickened by LSD-tainted beef - CBS News

TAMPA, Fla. -- A Tampa Police investigation is underway Friday after an entire family, including a pregnant woman and two young children, were hospitalized as a result of eating LSD-laced meat, reports CBS Affililate WTSP in Tampa.

According to reports, it all began Monday night when 24-year-old Ronnie Morales complained he felt sick after eating dinner.

Morales' girlfriend, 31-year-old Jessica Rosado drove him to St. Joseph's Hospital, but it wasn't long before she too, fell ill. Roasado, who was nine-months pregnant, was rushed to St. Joseph's Women's Hospital, where they safely delivered her baby.

The situation worsened as Rosado's young daughters, ages 7 and 6, also got sick and reportedly began hallucinating.

After being treated, Morales and both children were released from the hospital Wednesday, followed by Rosado and her healthy baby boy on Thursday.

It wasn't clear what caused the mysterious illness until Friday, when officials say they received test results from the medical examiner that pointed to LSD as the meat's contaminant.

Tampa Police are now investigating how LSD could have been in the meat, but Chief Castor did said they know the family is not at fault.

The meat was purchased at a Walmart located at 1501 North Dale Mabry Highway in Tampa. The store has since removed the specific type of meat from their shelves, and released the following statement in regard to the incident:

"Like everyone else in the community, we are deeply disturbed about this situation and we are taking it very seriously. We want answers and we're committed to working with officials to get to the bottom of this.

The second links version of the story has the couple hallucinating on the way to the hospital. That would be freaky.

I suspect some anti-Walmart person poisoned the meat. Perhaps the SEIU local would know.
