In October 2011, the state of Alabama followed suit when Dr. Donald Williamson, state health officer, signed an emergency order making the possession or sale of chemical compounds typically found in synthetic marijuana substances unlawful.

On Monday, the Huntsville police department and other Madison County law officers will begin enforcing Alabama's new law passed Oct. 14 that bans synthetic marijuana.

It was made illegal to possess the spice in 2010. Just like it is illegal to possess marijuana, not test positive in a drug test. To my knowledge, no player was ever arrested for possessing spice. The NCAA made it a violation for testing positive in 2011.

Also tests to detect Synthetics became available Jan 24, 2011. Auburn began testing for it Jan 27, 2011.

Since it became a banned substance under the drug testing policy, only three student-athletes have tested positive for synthetic marijuana out of more than 2,500 tests administered.

Gas stations were selling that stuff right next to the No-Dos & Swisser Sweets by the cash registers here in the state capital at that time.
