Scott Signs Bath Salts Drug Ban
June 1, 2011
Gov. Rick Scott on Tuesday signed legislation banning the possession of “bath salts” that are used as a drug.
Law enforcement has said the substances have become dangerously common. The drugs are added to the list of Schedule I controlled substances and their possession is a third degree felony under the new law. The law makes permanent a temporary ban put in place earlier this year by Attorney General Pam Bondi.
“Since the temporary ban in January, which made the use and sale of a new synthetic drug known as ‘bath salts’ illegal, we have seen a decrease in the number of reported medical emergencies related to this drug,” Bondi said in a statement released Tuesday.
