A man distributing LSD tabs for free outside a high school can be arrested for which crime?

Furnishing a controlled substance refers to the act of providing or distributing a controlled substance to another person. In this scenario, the man is actively giving away LSD tabs, which are classified as a controlled substance. Since he is distributing the drug to individuals, potentially minors, outside a high school, this act can be prosecuted under laws aimed at protecting public safety and preventing drug abuse, particularly among vulnerable populations like students.

Possession of a controlled substance would apply if the man were only holding LSD for personal use, without distribution intent. Possession with intent to sell indicates the individual possesses more of the substance than is usually considered personal use, suggesting he planned to sell it, which does not necessarily apply in this situation, as he is giving it away for free. Manufacturing a controlled substance would involve producing the substance itself, which is not relevant here since the individual is only distributing existing LSD tabs.
