[Previous 9/19/10 post]
(Albuquerque, New Mexico) A 56-year-old gifted student teacher at Grant Middle School, Kathi Hunter, was arrested this week for allegedly growing marijuana in her home.

Officers reportedly searched Hunter's home and found “11 budding marijuana plants inside the house and she also had 27 marijuana stems with a various amount of marijuana inside the house,” according to Police Commander Doug West.
Police said they got a tip on Thursday after APS police arrested Hunter’s son for having pot at Jefferson Middle School where he is a student.

Police said they have gotten several tips that the younger Hunter is dealing pot at the school.

Police said they’re still investigating how Hunter’s son got the pot and whether or not the two were selling it at school or anywhere else.[…]

Police said Hunter told them she was growing the pot for health reasons, but investigators did not buy her story.
Students said it was rumored that Kathi Hunter was selling dope to students.
