Tests Inconclusive on Girl’s ‘Jell-O Shots’
From Times Wire Reports
Traces of alcohol were detected in the suspected “Jell-O shots” taken to school by a fourth-grader, but it could have been the result of natural fermentation, a school official said.
The 8-year-old girl from suburban New Orleans took the gelatin to school in small containers similar to those used by bars that serve liquor-spiked Jell-O.
The girl’s mother, Adrienne Noble, has insisted that the gelatin never contained alcohol. The girl was suspended for nine days.
