FACT & FICTIONCollier County Sheriff's Office in Naples, Florida has confirmed issuing this internal bulletin on September 26, 2007. However, Sheriff's deputies admit they know
of no confirmed instances of Jenkem use in their jurisdiction, and when WINK-TV News questioned
several students at a local high school, all said they had never heard of the substance, let alone tried it.
Reports from other sources confirm possible use in other jurisdictions.

FACTSpice is a brand name for a mixture of herbs as an incense, as
well as over the Internet as a "herbal smoking blend." It is usually smoked for its cannabis-like effects which are believed
to be caused by a mixture of synthetic cannabinoid drugs. Several different "flavours" of Spice have been marketed which
have been shown to contain different proportions of the synthetic cannabinoid active ingredients, and reportedly produce
subtly different effects.
