Derrick Lee Castro Guzman was charged with forcing a child to eat marijuana gummies, a magistrate’s complaint filed in the Superior Court of Guam stated.
On Tuesday night a police officer responded to a disturbance in Chalan Pago to find a 13-year-old boy who appeared to be pale and weak lying in a bathtub, the complaint stated.
The boy told officers his body was numb and the boy eventually was taken to the hospital.
The reporting person told the officer Guzman is a drug addict and forced the boy to take “edible marijuana gummies,” which was later corroborated by the boy, according to the complaint.
Guzman was charged with child abuse as a misdemeanor.
