A new drug that teens are using is leaving parents concerned. The drug, "Salvia," is cheap, dangerous, and also legal in most states.

The drug is a leafy plant that teens are starting to use to get high and using the drug may be deadly.

Brett Chidester was a straight "A" student at a competitive high school, had lots of friends and was a world traveler. His mother, Kathy is still trying wondering why her son committed suicide.

"I just kept saying, 'why, why, why."

Brett was on a prescription acne medication that has also been linked to depression and he was also using Salvia Divinorum. The drug is considered to be a leafy, hallucinogenic. Brett's mother found the drugs and confronted Brett.

"He said, 'Well, mom, it's legal. You can find it anywhere," Kathy said.

Salvia is legal and cheap and it is also readily available online. A search on myspace.com will show hundreds of references to it.

It is used in the mountains of Southern Mexico and has been for more than 1,000 years. It has now become popular among high school and college kids.

After Brett's suicide, his mother found things that Brett had written about experiences he had with the drug.

"He said he went to a different realm," said Kathy. "He learned the secrets of life."

State Senator of Delaware, Karen Peterson, is trying to outlaw Salvia Divinorum in the state of Delaware and if she is successful, the state will join Louisiana and Missouri to have these drug laws.

"I just don't think we want that legal in Delaware."

Peterson is afraid that Salvia users could end up hurting themselves or others while under the influence of the drug.

"I, for one, don't want to be driving down Route 1 next to someone who is having an out-of-body experience," said Peterson.

Kathy Chidester does not blame Salvia Divinorum for her son's death, but the drug may have influenced the decision.

"I just think, with all the things he had going on, and to add Salvia to that mix, it was a lethal combination," said Peterson.
