April 6: OSU CAREER TECH REPORTS EMBEZZLEMENT The Oklahoma State Career Technology Administration, 1500 W. 7th Ave., reported an embezzlement totaling $1,175 in losses, according to a public incident report from Stillwater Police Department. The administration reported the amount was stolen in cash between March 2 and April 6. Stillwater Police is investigating the incident. APRIL 9: OSU STUDENT REPORTEDLY ASSAULTS BOUNCER AT JR MURPHY’S An OSU student was arrested for public intoxication after Stillwater police were dispatched to JR Murphy’s, 306 S. Washington St., in reference to an assault, according to a police report from SPD. Reavis David Hammond was arrested at the inter-
section of University and Monroe after a bouncer at the bar pointed him out at the intersection of University and Washington Streets, the report states. When the officer approached Hammond and asked him if he assaulted anyone at JR Murphy’s, he reportedly told the officer he hit a bouncer because the bouncer pushed him. Hammond told the officer the bouncer pushed him because he said, “I’m drunk and looking to get more drunk,” the report states. Hammond was then denied entry into the bar. The officer noticed a strong odor of alcohol on Hammond’s breath and that he had blood shot eyes, slurred speech and was swaying from side to side, according to the report. Hammond was arrested and booked into Payne County Jail. He has not been charged. April 11: VANDALS TARGET THE ISLAMIC SOCIETY OF STILLWATER Stillwater police re-
sponded to a vandalism investigation after a witness reported two windows of the Islamic Society building, 606 N. Washington St., appeared to have been shot at, according to a police report from the Stillwater Police Department. The witness, whose name was redacted from the report, said it appeared someone had shot at the front windows of the building with a BB gun, the report states. The double-pane, 12by-5 windows are located in an area of the building where construction is being done. The windows are valued at $500 apiece, according to the report. Police said there appeared to be a single bullet hole in each of the windows, the report states. The exterior panes were completely cracked from top to bottom, but the interior panes were not damaged. As of Thursday, one of the external panes had shattered. The building was empty at the time of the incident, the report states. The witness did not know who may have
caused the damage and no digital evidence of the incident was retrieved, according to the report. The Islamic Society was unable to be reached for comment. April 19: STUDENT’S RESIDENCE EGGED An OSU student reported an act of vandalism after reportedly finding eggs busted on the outside of her doorway, according to a report from OSUPD. The student, who lives in Friend Hall, reported there was no damage to the structure, the report states. The suspect is unknown. STUDENT CAUGHT WITH FAKE ID, ISSUED A CITATION
An OSU student was issued a notice to appear before Payne County Court after he showed an OSUPD officer a fake ID, according to a report from OSUPD. The student, whose name was withheld from the report, was a passenger in a vehicle during a traffic stop. Possession and use of a counterfeit state driver’s license or ID card is a felony under Oklahoma law. April 21: OSU STUDENT CHARGED AFTER REPORTEDLY STEALING CELLPHONE CASE Payne County Court charged Oklahoma State
student Lucas Vincent Keifer with petit larceny after he reportedly stole a cellphone case valued at under $500 from the OSU university store April 8, according to court documents. Keifer appeared before the court from Payne County Jail without counsel April 16, and his bond was set at $2,000. Keifer posted bond April 17. If convicted, Keifer could face a maximum fine of $500 and/or a maximum of six months in county jail. His next hearing is scheduled for May 14 at 1:45 p.m. news@ocolly.com

Users claim ‘Dab’ is different; law says it’s the same Savannah Evanoff @SavannahEvanoff
Editor’s note: About one in 20 students use marijuana on an almost daily basis, and in 2013 almost 36 percent of college students said they used marijuana in the past 12 months, according to a study conducted by University of Michigan scientists. Drug use among college students has been on the rise since 2006, and as marijuana use increases it seems so do the methods in which students obtain their high. With marijuana legalization continuing to spread across the country, the following story takes a look at a newer form of the drug in the Stillwater community. JD, John, Heather, Justin and Greg are pseudonyms used to protect the sources’ identities. The first time JD took a dab — a concentrated form of marijuana — he was behind the wheel of his pickup truck on a weekend road trip with three other passengers. “Maybe two hours into the trip, I think we’d smoked a little weed,” JD said. “I saw my friend with a torch and I was like ‘What the hell is goin’ on back there?’” By the time JD’s friend offered him a dab while driving, his curiosity had peaked. “I was like, ‘Why not?’ I’ve always been able to handle stuff,” JD said. JD’s friend, John, an Oklahoma State student, fired up a butane torch, heated up a rig similar to a bong and carefully dropped a pebble-
sized piece of golden-colored wax, a dab, for JD to inhale. “It was really good,” JD said. “It tasted amazing.” Moments later, the potency of dabs began to weigh on JD, making it progressively more challenging to concentrate on the road. “It was kinda’ freaky at that point because I was trying to drive and trying to maintain focus,” JD said. “It was new, and my nervous system had never been exposed to that much THC at one time.” JD, an OSU alumnus, was hooked. “I fell in love with dabs and pretty much stopped smoking weed altogether,” JD said. DABS IN DETAIL Dabs. Wax. Shatter. Hash oil. Concentrates. Among users of the newest trend for smoking weed are many different street names, ways of consumption and motives behind consumption of concentrated marijuana, or dabs. OSU police officer Colt Chandler said regardless of names, all forms of marijuana are treated the same in the eyes of the law. In the Oklahoma Statutes, all parts of the plant, whether growing or not, are listed under the definition of marijuana. Dabs may be defined as butane hash oil, a substance from a marijuana plant that is concentrated into an oil or wax to be smoked. The cannabis plant undergoes many chemical extractions that separate the THC — Tetrahydrocannabinol, the chemical ingredient behind marijuana’s “high” — from

Dab gets its name based on the pebble-sized high-concentrated marijuana wax heated up to inhale.
the plant matter. There are many different strains of marijuana plants and various methods of extraction, resulting in numerous different types of dabs. “Concentrates, which would be resin or extracts of the plant, would be considered marijuana,” Chandler said. Chandler said marijuana concentrates are still very new. Concentrated marijuana is most commonly consumed using a water pipe with a nail attachment and other
parts, collectively called a rig. “It’s called a dab because you dab the wax onto the hot nail,” John said. John said other common ways of consumption include using pens similar to an e-cigarette or glass oilrigs made only for smoking concentrates. BETTER THAN BUD Many people who consume dabs often choose to do so for two primary reasons: They find marijuana wax a healthier alternative than plant material, often referred to as bud, and because
O’COLLY
it is more powerful than bud. “You take the weed through a chemical process that isolates the good stuff,” JD said. “Dabs are so much cleaner and so much lighter in the lungs.” Although JD said he believes dabs are healthier than smoking marijuana, there is no research to support it. Justin said comparing dabs to weed is like comparing liquor to beer, one is noticeably stronger than the other. “I haven’t had any problems probably because I’ve smoked weed for a long time, but I could see how if
you just started you could absolutely get couch-locked,” Justin said. While conventional plant marijuana typically contains 15 to 20 percent THC, dabs are around 50 to 90 percent THC. Greg, an OSU student and regular weed smoker, said he sees dabs on the Unseen app, an anonymous photo-sharing app, all the time. Based on rumor alone, Greg said he would have to feel extremely comfortable to even try a dab. See DAB Page 6 PAGE 4
OSU student arrested for making threats of mass violence on Yik Yak Kaelynn Knoernschild @kaelynn_k
The Oklahoma State Police Department arrested an OSU student after threats of mass violence appeared on social media over the weekend. Kyron Birdine, 18, was arrested Tuesday afternoon on a state charge of making a terrorism hoax, a felony charge carrying up to 10 years in prison, according to a statement released from OSU Communications. Police were alerted Sunday night that a string of
threats involving a potential shooting on the OSU campus had been made on the popular social media app, Yik Yak. An OSU student, who is unnamed in the police report, reported the posts to the police. With the help of the student, police gathered a series of five screenshots warning students of a shooting this Friday, April 24. At 4:55 p.m., Birdine reportedly posted a yak stating, “School shooting on campus this Friday. You have been warned.” The last yak, which was posted at 5:08 p.m., said, “Friday. Stay inside if you value your life. It will be a day of

Screenshots of posts helped police work to identify suspect.
retribution.” OSUPD contacted the FBI and Yik Yak and was
able to narrow down its search for a suspect after working with a cellphone
provider, according to the statement. By Tuesday afternoon, investigators had narrowed their search to three potential suspects. After interviewing each person of interest, Birdine was arrested. “We appreciate the assistance of the FBI, Yik Yak and the cellphone provider in helping us quickly identify the suspect,” said Mike Robinson, OSU police chief. “We also appreciate the student who notified OSU police immediately about the post. Even though users of the service have anonymity, Yik Yak will use its resources to help identify
a user when contacted by law enforcement about a criminal act or threat.” Robinson said no information was immediately released out of fear of inhibiting the investigation. “Since the threat was for ‘Friday,’ investigators did not believe the posts posed an immediate threat to the campus,” he said. “Still, the university took the threat seriously at all times. OSU was prepared to release information about the threat to campus, but did not want to impede investigators while progress was being made quickly in the investigation.” news@ocolly.com

dab:
Weed Arrests in Stillwater and on OSU's campus
dab is preferred by some for its potency.
From Page 4 “It’s like taking eight hits at once because it’s concentrated,” JD said. Heather, an OSU student, said she has taken only a few dabs because she does not find the incapacitating kind of high enjoyable. “With smoking it’s easier to measure out what kind of high you want to achieve,” Heather said. “With dabs you don’t have any control.” Heather said if someone who had never smoked weed before were to take a dab, they would never want to try marijuana again. “Even one dab puts me at a place where I can’t function,” Heather said. Dabs also come with a higher price tag. JD and John said they spend about $300-400 per month on dabs, adding up to a total of $3,600-4,800 per year. Largely a result of financial reasons and accessibility, Justin said he prefers smoking bud to taking dabs. “If I dab too much, my tolerance will go up for the plant matter,” Justin said. “I gotta be careful. I like to keep my tolerance down for money reasons.” Consumers often reach even further into their pocket to shell out money for equipment. “I have spent a few pretty pennies on the equipment,” John said. JD says though it’s pretty expensive, most of the people who smoke dabs

are already connoisseurs of marijuana. “You already step in, and you’re willing to spend money,” JD said. EVERYTHING HAS CONSEQUENCES Although dabs seem new to Stillwater, they have already established a reputation nationwide — and it is not squeaky clean. Failed attempts at cooking butane hash oil in kitchens are being held responsible for a number of home explosions across the United States, not unlike crystal Methamphetamine, according to an article on dabs from CNBC. Accompanying dabs’ reputation is an underlying concern over the chemical
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 2015
process marijuana undergoes during the extraction process and the contaminants in the butane itself. The way the marijuana is grown, the part of the plant utilized and the age of the plant can all play a role in the safety and health of the final product of dabs. “Some people don’t make it right, and it still has residual solvents in it which can be bad for you,” John said. Dabs are fairly new to Stillwater, being slowly introduced to the town beginning in 2010,John said. Dabs began growing in popularity among marijuana smokers in the U.S. between 2008-2010, according to marijuana.com. There is not a substantial
150 OSU
amount of research on the production dangers and health consequences dabs pose. “It definitely has some sort of effect, I just don’t think we know yet,” JD said. “It’s not healthy for people to think you can do as much as you want, everything has consequences.” Possession of dabs, or any other form of marijuana, can certainly hold legal consequences. Despite the hype, students expressed a resonating fear and constant concern for the potential consequences of their illegal activity. “I won’t have any in the car but I will see the police, and I start to freak out,” JD said. “It’s always in the back

of my mind.” Chandler said possession of marijuana or paraphernalia can be discovered through a traffic infraction or from what campus police labels a “call for service,” when they are called and alerted of a marijuana odor or other concern. “We respond and investigate as usual, if there is an origin or place of origin we can identify we will determine whether we need to get a warrant or if we can get consensual search,” Chandler said. “A consensual search can be verbal or with a written document.” If a person is found in possession of marijuana or its extracts, they can be subject to a misdemeanor or felony charge for the crime.
“A misdemeanor can be up to a $1,000 fine or up to a one-year imprisonment in a county jail,” Chandler said. “A felony can be more than that.” news@ocolly.com
Marijuana Legalization Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia have legalized marijuana medicinally or recreationally, Oklahoma is not among them. Alaska, Colorado, Oregon and Washington are the only four states in the U.S. to have legalized marijuana recreationally.

Sluder’s walk-off completes Cowboys’ comeback Nathan Ruiz @NathanSRuiz
Ryan Sluder had no time for 18 innings. The sophomore outfielder blasted a three-run home run over Allie P. Reynolds Stadium’s left-field fence to give his Cowboys a 10-7 victory over Dallas Baptist in 10 innings Tuesday night. “Just trying to get the run home, and it went over the fence,” Sluder said. “Definitely a good feeling. Good for our ball club, certainly.” The bomb followed an outstanding diving play by Sluder in the top half of the inning as he denied a sinking
line drive from touching the ground. “Right off the bat, I did (think it would fall),” he said. “Somehow, it kinda hung up there, so I gave it the best I got and caught it.” Singles from Tim Arakawa and Jacob Chappell set up the home run, but the No. 9 Cowboys (27-13) might not have reached extras without some help from the Patriots (29-9). A ninth-inning rally featured three DBU errors, culminating with Nash Knight’s at third base. Bryan Case, batting with one out and the bases loaded in a 7-6 game, hit a groundball to third — a tailor-made double-play ball. But Knight
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 2015
got ahead of himself, bobbling the ball and bringing in the tying run. “Our team, we’re always in it no matter how many runs we’re down,” shortstop Donnie Walton said. “We just keep fighting.” The Cowboys scored in the first inning for the third straight game. However, OSU would only score once in the frame as Sluder grounded out with the bases loaded to end the inning. In the second, OSU added a pair of runs behind Walton’s two-out RBI triple and Arakawa’s subsequent single. But the inning ended with two Cowboys on base. After the Patriots scratched in a run in the
third, the Cowboys responded with three of their own. Five straight hitters reached with two outs as the Cowboys took a 6-1 lead. But again, they left two men on base.

Bedlam is coming back to Stillwater Hayden Barber @haydenbarberiv
The Cowgirls will seek to validate their season Wednesday against No. 6 Oklahoma. “Bedlam means everything,” Wieligman said. “We want to win in the worst way. We want to come out on top, and win the state.” It will be the tallest task of the year for Oklahoma State. The Sooners (39-6, 11-1 Big 12) enter Wednesday’s tilt leading the nation in batting average, scoring, on-base percentage and slugging percentage. They were ranked No. 3 in the preseason polls, and received a first-place vote in the week 10 rankings, according to the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25. “When you add the defense along with the pitching and hitting, they’ve got all three going, and they usually play pretty well together,” Wieligman said. OSU (19-26, 3-9) will undoubtedly come into the game as underdogs. However, the Cowgirls have played talent like this before, even this season. OSU’s first Big 12 victory in 2015 came against Baylor, which is second in the Big 12 standings. “We’re underdogs, but I want us to play with that chip on our shoulder,” Wieligman said. “Let’s go get ’em, and let’s play every pitch like we have nothing to lose.” The Cowgirls’ ace, Brandi Needham, is projected to

start against the powerhouse. Needham (11-14) is working a 4.20 ERA, and she will have to combat perhaps the most dangerous batter in the nation, Lauren Chamberlain, and the rest of the Sooners. In regards to OSU’s approach to neutralizing such a lethal offensive attack, Wieligman said he hopes Needham can keep the ball off of the Sooners’ bats and let the pitchers dictate the game. Chamberlain is one home run away from breaking the NCAA record for career home runs. Nevertheless, Wieligman said she could do whatever she wants as long as the Cowgirls come out with the victory. The Cowgirls are significantly younger than the Sooners, a recurring theme for OSU in 2015. OU has 13 upperclassmen compared to OSU’s seven. Even with the odds against them, Wieligman’s message to the
