Under Section 13 of The Controlled Substance, Drug, Device and Cosmetic Act, controlled substances that are mislabeled are considered a crime, however what if a non controlled substance like sugar, was labeled as a controlled substance like cocaine. Explain whether or now you think this is even a crime, and if you do, then does this crime fall under a controlled substance offense or not.

2. Under Section 13, subsection 32, and 33 all state specifically that the growth of drugs for the use of introducing it into the human body is a crime. Section 31, states that the possession of marihuana for personal use and the intent to distribute the marihuana even though not for a profit is still a crime.
