A Tempe mom was arrested after police say her child ate mac and cheese made with THC butter. THC is a chemical in cannabis that gets you high. 
 
 Alaina Marie Limpert, 25, was booked on one count of child abuse. 
 
 The Department of Child Safety was notified by someone in Limpert's home that her almost-two-year-old daughter had ingested THC butter while eating macaroni and cheese with her father. 
 
 "During that time, neither parent took the child to immediate emergency care," according to the police report. 
 
 Instead, "It was witnessed inside of the residence that [they] both laughed about the side effects the child experienced during that time and then proceeded to place her into their backyard pool to use the cold water to 'shock' her," the police report continued. 
 
 It wasn't until two days later the Department of Child Safety was notified and arrived to take custody of all three kids living at the home. 
 
 Hospital officials later confirmed that they found THC in the infant's system. 
 
 Limpert later admitted making the mac and cheese with THC for her husband, but did not know her daughter ingested it. 
 
 Limpert is due back in court April 19. 
 
 At the home, police report they found two marijuana grow tents in the garage. 
 
 They also found mushrooms, bongs and pipes, containers of hash oil and other drug paraphernalia. 
 
 In the home's refrigerator, "on the top shelf were three large tubs of THC butter."

 Benicia police have arrested a first-grade teacher on poisoning charges after she allegedly fed her co-workers marijuana-laced food at an employee pot luck. 
 
 Teresa Gilmete Badger, a 47-year-old teacher at Matthew Turner Elementary School in Benicia, was arrested Friday afternoon on suspicion of poisoning after a month and a half long investigation, according to Lt. Frank Hartig. 
 
 Police were informed in early December by Benicia Unified School District Superintendent Janice Adams that a number of people reported feeling sick or possibly under the influence after attending a Nov. 21 after-hours employee potluck, Hartig said.

 One female victim was admitted to a hospital for treatment that evening, and another was admitted on Nov. 22 complaining of chest pain and other symptoms, Hartig said. 
 
 Tests determined that victim had THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, present in her blood, Hartig said.

 Police determined that several other people reported feeling like they were under the influence as a result of the potluck, and that one had taken the affected food home, where a 15-year-old family member consumed it. 
 
 The juvenile later experienced some of the same symptoms, Hartig said. 
 
 Badger allegedly confessed her involvement to individuals who were also at the party, Hartig said, but she did not admit that to police. 
 
 Dave Padilla lives across the street from Badger and says he can’t believe the charges she is facing. 
 
 “This just doesn’t fit at all,” Padilla said. “I’m hoping this is really just a bad mistake.” 
 
 Police say Badger was arrested on three counts of poisoning Friday afternoon at her home on Clyne Court and booked into Solano County Jail in Fairfield in lieu of $15,000 bail. 
 
 Badger chose not to speak to arresting officers about the incident, Hartig said. 
 
 Adams could not be reached for comment.

– An Arizona mother has been arrested after authorities allege her nearly 2-year-old daughter ate mac and cheese that was prepared with THC butter. According to police, 25-year-old Alaina Limpert was taken into custody Wednesday after someone in her home alerted authorities that the girl had eaten the marijuana-laced food. Per KTVK, cops say Limpert did not take her daughter in for medical treatment when she realized what had happened. Instead, the police report says Limpert "laughed about the side effects the child experienced during that time and then proceeded to place her into their backyard pool to use the cold water to 'shock' her." Two days later, a call to the Department of Child Safety led to all three children being taken away from Limpert and her husband's home. Healthcare officials would reportedly later confirm the girl had THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, in her system. Police say Limpert admitted she made the mac and cheese for her husband, but that he did not know her daughter had ingested it. Per the police report, cops found marijuana grow tents in the home's garage as well as mushrooms, hash oil, and drug paraphernalia. Limpert was arrested on charges of child abuse, marijuana possession and cultivation, and other charges. She is due in court April 19.
