Olympic Skier Bode Miller Arrested on Misdemeanor Drug Charges in Idaho

Olympic Skier Bode Miller Arrested on Misdemeanor Drug Charges in IdahoPreviousNext

Olympic skiing legend Bode Miller, 48, was arrested in Idaho on June 6 on two misdemeanor charges: possession of approximately 4.1 grams of psilocybin mushrooms and possession of drug paraphernalia. He posted a $5,000 cash bond and pleaded not guilty. Miller, a six-time Olympic medalist and recent US Olympic Paralympic Hall of Fame inductee, is scheduled for a pretrial hearing on July 29. Idaho law prohibits psilocybin, despite broader interest in psychedelic therapies elsewhere.
