Confusing 911 Call Leads To Hallucinogen Charge In Southington

SOUTHINGTON, CT — A woman who said she could not remember calling 911 during an altercation in Southington has been charged with crimes related to the high-potency drugs police uncovered while investigating the scene, an arrest report indicates.

Police said Emma Watson, 24, of Gales Ferry, was charged Thursday with possession with intent to sell an amphetamine substance, possession with intent to sell a hallucinogenic substance and possession of controlled substance.

The case dates back to Aug. 4, when officers responded to 142 Liberty St. after receiving a 911 about an altercation between a man and a woman, according to an arrest report.

Officers determined it was Watson that made the 911 call during an argument. During a subsequent interview, Watson at first said she did not remember making the 911 call, but later said she was nervous and was trying to scare another person with the call, according to an arrest report.

During the interview with Watson, officers discovered two large zip-type plastic bags containing a "white crystal rock like substance," two full similar type bags containing a "mushroom substance," and other miscellaneous pills on her, according to a report. During an interview, Watson told police the white crystal like substance was "meth" and the mushrooms were "shrooms."

Testing then confirmed they were amphetamines and "LSD/Magic Mushrooms," according to an arrest report.

An arrest warrant was secured Thursday and Watson was taken into custody in Groton, according to a report.
