Freak Exonerated

SAN ANTONIO, TEX.
(UPI) - A 25-year old man was
acquitted of possessing twelve
and a half pounds of marijuana
yesterday on grounds of
temporary insanity caused by
use of drugs such as LSD,
peyote and mescaline.

Earl W. Goebel was found
innocent by a federal district
court jury after his attorney
said his client suffered from
"flashbacks" due to use of the
drugs.
