I am filling out the Drug Use Statement for the DEA Special Agent application. I am supposed to describe the extent of my past drug use. There is a section that reads:
“By the words “use”, “attempted use” and “experimentation”, I understand that [the] DEA is asking me to disclose any and all EXPERIENCES with illegal narcotics or dangerous drugs, to include any act or attempted act of trying, smoking, ingesting, tasting, inhaling, injecting, puffing or OTHERWISE EXPERIMENTING with a controlled substance or a substance that I believe to be a controlled substance."
Furthermore:
“Have you ever …. PROVIDED, sold, SUPPLIED, MANUFACTURED, PRODUCED, transported, or otherwise trafficked any illegal narcotic or dangerous drug, to include marijuana?”
Like twenty years ago I did do the following:
(1) My friend gave me some seeds and told me they were marijuana. I did not think the seeds my friend gave me were real marijuana seeds. So out of curiosity I planted a few seeds at home. I basically forgot about them. A couple of seeds did sprout. When I became suspicious that they may in-fact be real marijuana seeds I destroyed the plants/sprouts. I did not attempt to smoke, ingest, taste, or puff any of this substance in any way shape or form. Nor did I give any of this substance away or attempt to sell any of this substance.
(2) I used to help a friend care for his marijuana plants. We were wanting to smoke them when they bud. His father destroyed the plants and we were never able to use them. Nothing was sold or given away. Every thing was destroyed.
I am thinking that in both cases the marijuana was never manufactured, well, “completely” to it’s usable form. Any thoughts about this disqualifying me would be appreciated.
