A New Jersey school custodian is alleging in a lawsuit that his co-workers laced his pizza with the hallucinogen LSD in an attempt to poison him at an office party in 2005.
Dominick A. Rao, a janitor with the district since 2000, was served pizza out of a different box than the other custodians, his attorney, Richard Mazawey, told reporters. "He said he felt like his body and system were melting from the inside out, like he was living in a kaleidoscope."
Soon after, Rao went to an emergency room at an area hospital where it was found that he "had a controlled dangerous substance running through his bloodstream," Mazawey said.
Rao said he has extremely poor vision due to bilateral ocular albinism, a condition that causes his eyes to lack pigment. Because of this, he said he was often bullied by his supervisor and co-workers. When Rao returned to work after the alleged incident, a co-worker asked him, "How are you still alive," the suit says.
"Upon hearing this, he realized how extensive the plot to poison him truly was," according to the suit. Rao filed a police report more than a year after the alleged incident but no criminal charges have been brought against anyone.
