I just wanted to give everyone out there a heads up on what's going on with the Good Samaritan policy.
If someone is overdosing (alcohol poisoning included) in the city of Berkeley and they or their friends call 911 to get medical attention, they cannot be charged with possession, possession with intent to sell, or minor in possession (of alcohol).
This is proposed to the Berkeley City Council and will be voted on September 20th (and most likely pass).
If you would like to read the actual text being voted upon, let us know and we can send it to you!
A HUGE THANK YOU TO TYLER SHEAFFER FOR WRITING THE TEXT AND GETTING THIS DONE, YOU ROCK!!
