It has been reported that a drug dealer has admitted to attempting to get high, by smoking his own mother’s ashes.
Austin Schroeder, 26, and his 21 year old girlfriend Kaitlyn Geiger were arrested after allegedly selling marijuana to a police informant last week in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
With the informant able to purchase marijuana, police later searched the apartment of the couple. Their findings included 70 grams of marijuana, a small amount of MDMA, bongs and a weighing scale.
Police Officers also discovered a large amount of unknown powder and vegetable material located in the apartment.’ Schroeder informed them that ‘he mixed these substances for a variety of reasons.’
Schroeder continued and revealed that his mother had passed away over a year prior – to which he then told officers ‘he took some of her ashes and mixed them with a variety of substances, some of which he ultimately ingested’ according to WSN.
Schroeder never provided any reasoning of his decision to combine his mother’s ashes with drugs, nor did he explain why he admitted to doing it.
Police reports don’t indicate as to whether his mother’s ashes were mixed with the drugs that he had allegedly been selling. Both Schroeder and Geiger face felony drug charges and appeared in a Waukesha County Court on Wednesday. They were released on a signature bond and are set to return to court on January 28.
