Mosquito Spraying Throughout Camden County

 Early Wednesday morning, the Mosquito Control Commission will be in the community spraying and surveilling areas throughout Camden County.

“It’s important for residents to be cognizant of any standing water on their property,” said Commissioner Jeffrey Nash, liaison to the Camden County Mosquito Commission. “Mosquitos need standing water to breed, so you can help keep them off your property by removing water from places like flowerpots and containers. Being proactive has a major impact on the mosquito population and helps the hardworking people at the Camden County Mosquito Control Commission in their efforts.”

FBI Offering $25,000 Reward

The FBI Miami Field Office recently announced a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to the successful recovery of the remains of Ana Maria Henao Knezevic.  

Investigators allege that her husband David was reportedly disturbed at the prospect of splitting their wealth from joint business ventures as the result of a potential divorce. As a result, they believe he followed her to Spain, entered her apartment building, and killed her. He then fled Spain and returned to Serbia. Law enforcement has never recovered her remains.   

David was arrested upon his return to the United States. Although he was charged in connection with her death, he died by suicide before the case could go to trial—and before her remains could be recovered.

What’s the Latest on 7-OHand Kratom Availability and Addiction Care?

by Michigan Medicine – University of Michigan

Newswise — For two years, anyone has been able to walk into a vape shop or convenience store in Michigan and other states, hand over cash or a credit card, and walk out with as much of a substance called 7-OH and other related products as they can afford. Or they can click online and get it shipped to them.

They may have turned to 7-OH and other synthetic opioids at first to get relief from pain, anxiety or stress, or as an alternative to illegal drugs.

After all, 7-OH and synthetic opioid products have been touted as “natural” relatives of plant-derived kratom products that have been around for years.

But for many, including those who “graduated” from kratom to the more potent 7-OH and synthetic opioids often touted as kratom-related, their initial relief turned into an addiction they now can’t kick.

That’s because kratom, 7-OH and the related synthetic opioids act on the brain’s opioid receptors.
