JACKSON (WNE) — Steven Bailey is in jail after pleading guilty to possessing and delivering LSD that was later found in student lockers at Jackson Hole Middle School.

The 18-year-old started serving his six-month sentence Tuesday evening at Teton County Jail after a hearing earlier that day in Teton County District Court.

“I feel it’s fair based on my past actions, and it’s a way for me to make amends,” Bailey said in court when the judge asked him what he thought about spending time behind bars.

Bailey has been sober since his arrest in November, he said.

“I did a 97-day in-treatment rehab and got out of that and came back to Jackson and have been doing an outpatient rehab since then,” he said. “Along with that, when this all happened I unenrolled from my high school education due to the circumstances. But last month I got my GED and am planning on continuing college once I get out of jail.”

Bailey was charged with delivery and possession of LSD after the drug was found in lockers at the middle school last fall.

A 14-year-old boy said he had been buying LSD and marijuana from Bailey, according to documents. That student admitted to reselling the drugs to his middle school classmates.

Bailey was originally jailed on three felony counts. In the plea agreement he pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count and one felony count.

His jail sentence is based on the misdemeanor count, and when he’s released Bailey will serve probation on the felony count.
