Herald-Times reported Thursday. Advertisement Indiana University Police Department Capt. Jerry Minger said the leafy substance made some of the mother's co-workers suspicious, and one took a sample to police. Minger said the substance tested positive for traces of marijuana. However, the girl came forward after the case was publicized and brought police a sample of the lavender, which registered a "weak reaction" on the marijuana test. Minger said the case is considered closed.
