now crossing the border into the United States.It looks like motor oil, but the black watery tar sitting in five-gallon buckets is nearly pure THC concentrate."I started to see the people that would usually backpack marijuana through the desert were now backpacking up crude oil," said Detective Matthew Shay with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.Cartels make the concentrate by using a complex process to strip THC off marijuana plants. What's left is distilled and filtered further, taking a product that began at about 6% THC into one that carries a THC content of more than 80%.Shay says it takes about 250 pounds of low-grade commercial marijuana to produce a five-gallon bucket of crude cannabis oil. Once in a concentrated form, profits skyrocket. Each bucket could produce more than 0,000 in vaping cartridges."These are all black-market cartridges — none of these are from a licensed dispensary," Shar said.Once the crude oil from the cartels hits the streets, dealers in the United States begin cutting the product with additives. Shay confirmed that dealers will add ingredients like vitamin E acetate — a compound linked to EVALI, a lung illness related to vaping that has sickened thousands across the country. However, a link between black market cannabis concentrate and EVALI has not yet been confirmed.Shay confirmed that American smoking habits are driving the new trend. Using vape cartridges to deliver THC is now the most popular way of consuming marijuana."That's the whole business right?" Shay said, "If there isn't a market, there's no reason to be shipping the stuff up."It's that demand that fuels the cartel's new strategy — creating a risk no one should take."The black market cannabis cartridges are going to be hazardous, period," Shay said.Labs are testing the crude oil to find out exactly what kind of chemicals are in the product.This story was originally published by Cameron Polom on 1930

Workers have a right to safety by law, but an advocacy group claims its new report proves those laws aren't being enforced.The National Employment Law Project (NELP) analyzed data from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) from April to early August and found more than 1,700 workers filed complaints, saying their employers retaliated against them for raising coronavirus safety concerns.NELP tells us they've even heard from workers who asked for masks and were fired. More than half of the complaints were dismissed without investigation, while 2% were investigated and resolved by OSHA.“Instead of an agency that's there to assure that workers have a safe workplace, it's there to assure that you know large employers that want to violate the law that they get off the hook,” said Debbie Berkowitz, Director of the NELP Worker Health and Safety Program.Berkowitz is one of the authors of the report. She worked at OSHA under the Obama administration. She says the agency should've acted with “emergency temporary standards” for safety during the pandemic.“But instead, the administration has done almost no enforcement in this pandemic to protect workers against employers that flagrantly violate the CDC guidelines, because they're just guidelines, they're not mandatory,” said Berkowitz.Berkowitz thinks there would be more complaints if workers felt protected.If you are punished for speaking up, she says you should still file a complaint with OSHA within 30 days. Even if it's dismissed, she's still advocating for people to share their stories.“We need to understand what working people are facing, especially our essential workers who are working outside of the home, and we need to make sure that we're protecting these workers,” said Berkowitz.In a statement to The Washington Post, OSHA said it's committed to these investigations. The agency says the amount of closed complaints related to the coronavirus have been consistent with its normal average. 1993

You can bet on it: Sports gambling is about to expand, big time, in the United States.Right now, the only place you can legally bet on sports is Nevada.But on Monday, the Supreme Court struck down a federal law that prohibited legalized sports gambling anywhere but Nevada.So what does this court decision mean, exactly?Now that there is no longer a federal law against sports gambling, each state is free to pass laws that govern where people will be able to bet on sports and how."It'll be a state-by-state matter," said Eugene Christiansen, an expert on casino gambling and consultant to the industry. "I'm sure there will be a wide variety as to how fast or how slow the licensing proceeds."Are any other states close to approving sports betting?Six states, including New Jersey which that brought the lawsuit to the Supreme Court, have already passed laws to allow casinos to take sports bets once the federal law was struck down, according to Geoff Freeman, CEO of the American Gaming Association. Those states are New Jersey, New York, West Virginia, Mississippi, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.Another 12 states have introduced legal sports gambling legislation.Even in states that have approved sports gambling, it'll take some time to complete the approval process, which will require companies to be licensed in order to take sports bets."In the case of New Jersey I think we're talking weeks before we have sports betting in place," he said. "For most of the other states, I'd expect it start at the beginning of the football season this fall."How widespread will sports betting become?There are a total of 40 states that have some kind of casino -- either state-regulated or tribal. Experts say they believe most if not all of those states will eventually allow sports gambling, simply because they won't want their own casinos to be at a competitive disadvantage with casinos just across state lines."It's the same reason we've seen the spread of casinos to so many states -- the states have been watching consumers going out of state to place bets," said Josh Schiller, an attorney who has represented various gaming interests. "People enjoy betting on sports."But experts say it could still take a few years before sports books are legal in states that haven't begun the process."Gaming law is something that typically takes time," said Freeman. "It's more complex than many people think."Will I be able to place a sports bet online in another state where it is legal?Monday's decision only allows states to control gambling within their own borders. It does not open the door for interstate online gambling, or placing online bets with foreign sports books. That would require additional legislation or lawsuits.How important is sports gambling for casinos?Actually, it's not a very profitable business. For instance, gamblers in Nevada lost about 0 million betting legal on sports last year. But that equals only about 2% of the Nevada gaming industry's take overall.Additionally, casinos have the potential to lose big on sports bets, unlike in house games. So sports betting can be the least profitable part of the casino, or even a money loser, according to experts.Casinos fought for the approval to take sports bets because it's an important way to draw customers into the casinos. Otherwise, they would lose that business to illegal competitors, such as bookies and offshore gambling sites. 3443
