Marijuana

A Flint man who was sentenced in 1996 to 60-years for selling marijuana to an undercover informant is asking for release after almost 25 years in prison.

Last week the Michigan Marijuana Regulatory Agency recalled certain THC vape pen cartridges because of high level of Vitamin E Acetate - products that Millen had sent in for testing after the state ordered it.

They met with the planning department Monday about the would be pot shop on 11 Mile and Hayes. City law requires it to be 500 feet away from homes, schools and churches. But it sits right across the street - roughly 150 feet from houses in Roseville.

Cookies, a California-based medical marijuana dispensary has opened its first shop on Eight Mile in Detroit on Friday, Jan. 31, 2020.

According to Detroit Police James Craig, more people are becoming victims of violence as they take part in black market weed deals in Detroit.

All affected vape cartridges will have a label that indicates the license number of the marijuana facility and the METRC number assigned to the product in the statewide monitoring system.

But members of Detroit City Council are working to change this.  Today's vote extends the soon to expire opt-out through March, providing city officials additional time to set rules and regulations. 

With legal recreational marijuana, it represents the beginning of a new normal in Michigan.

It's been nearly a year since voters in Michigan approved recreational marijuana but it's still legally unavailable in stores. 

With weed legal in Michigan, state and city police officers are increasingly finding THC at the center of impaired driving scenarios and car accidents.  To ease the burden of law enforcement, a company announced plans to sell a weed breathalyzer by winter. So what does Michigan law enforcement think of their new potential toy?

Michigan voters have approved a ballot measure that will legalize marijuana in Michigan similar to alcohol, according to both supporters and the opposition of the bill.
