The answer to the Question "WTF have they been putting in the water" has been answere

Considering that it is not even soluble in water and it would be seen with the naked eye as an oil slick, yes, they story is nothing but fear mongering and taking advantage of people's lack of knowledge. That also means that it would have to be processed because the raw plant would do nothing in water except float until it eventually became water logged. Even then, THC molecules would not mix in with the water in such a way to cause "digestibility" by humans or other higher lifeforms. It would not kill fish or other wildlife.

"Rumor has it...." If one were to stuff a mason jar with vegetable matter and then fill that jar with water and seal it for a week, pour out old water and fill with fresh water, seal and allow to soak another week, drain, repeat process for 4 cycles then, dry such vegetable matter by forced air so as not to allow vegetable product to mildew or mold. It will be "cured".

"Results (supposed)" Water has leached away all water soluble components leaving, vegetable matter still containing the non-water soluble components.
