After officials discovered a conspiracy to have 23 sheets drenched in synthetic cannabinoids sent to the prison, Bush was charged with various offenses. Bush told the authorities he wanted to sell all the papers to pay for his court and lawyer bills. Agent Daniel Erdman reported that in discussion with detainee Bush, the latter revealed to your affiant that he ordered unknown parties to bring papers saturated with synthetic cannabinoids.
In an affidavit of probable cause, Erdman said, "The pages contained within the parcel are consistent with how inmates normally work in an attempt to introduce contraband via legal mail."
According to the testing results, all 23 pages include MDMB-4en-PINACA, a schedule 1 indole carboxamide, which was discovered on Aug. 4. Bush, in jail at the State Correctional Institute in Coal Township, was granted $5,000 monetary bail.
