From CBS Crimesider:

DAVIS, Calif. -- Police are investigating the possibility that a high-school student made cookies mixed with human remains and gave them to unknowing classmates to eat, CBS Sacramento reports. Several students ate the cookies at DaVinci High School that police suspect may have included the ashes of one of the student's grandparents.

There have been plenty of cases of students bringing pot-laced cookies to school, but cremated remain cookies is a new one.

Police say the cookies in question were sugar cookies that the student brought to campus and handed out to at least nine students.

Davis Police Lt. Paul Doroshov says he's never come across a case like this.

"No, this is a weird one," he said. "I have not heard of anyone getting sick or anybody being harmed as far as physically, physiologically by this," he said.

Police are working to confirm that two high-school students were part of the morbid plan. Once that happens, they'll have to decide what charges to bring.

"This is so unconventional, it would take more research," Doroshov said.

The Davis Joint Union School District issued a statement saying it couldn't comment on confidential student matters but that the investigation is ongoing:

"This case has been particularly challenging and we have responded appropriately and in the most respectful and dignified way possible," the statement said in part.

So far, the evidence comes from student testimony. The cookies haven't been tested yet.

This was planned between a few students, to make it worse.

A few? In the part of your article posted above it says two students were part of the plan. That's bad enough to think anyone else would approve such a plan.

I wonder, too, how the parents feel whose parents' ashes were taken and used in that way.

The long-time Rolling Stones guitarist was reputed to have snorted some of his father's ashes mixed with cocaine.

I have no idea how Keith Richards still walks the planet. I mean, I have known people who don’t touch a drug or drink die suddenly at 40 of a heart attack, and some how this dude still lives.

The coke and ashes stunt (which some say never happened) notwithstanding, lol, Keef's main love, opiates, don't necessarily kill you if care and quality are taken into account. Plenty of old junkies coast into their senior years, the author William S. Burroughs, for one. (Not sure how KR has survived, though, given his copious intake of alcohol as well!)
