Dominga Torres, 65, of Marlton

Dominga was truly one of a kind. She was spicy, independent, strong-willed, and full of personality. She knew exactly who she was and was never afraid to show it. Her bold spirit and unique sense of humor brought laughter and joy to those around her.

Dominga had a way of making an impression, and once you met her, you certainly would not forget her. She loved the colors red and black, colors that perfectly reflected her bold and vibrant personality. Dominga also had a special love for Halloween. She enjoyed everything about the season—the fun, the excitement, and the mystery. In true Dominga fashion, she even dreamed of one day marrying Dracula and visiting Transylvania. It was one of the many things that made her so wonderfully unique and brought smiles to the faces of everyone who heard her talk about it.

Behind her fiery personality was a heart filled with thoughtfulness and generosity. Dominga was always thinking of others. She would often offer something to her staff other housemates, wanting to share what she had and make those around her feel included and appreciated. Even in the smallest gestures, Dominga showed that she cared.

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.

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