On today’s WTJX Radio NewsFeed: The Committee on Homeland Security, Justice and Public Safety advanced legislation tightening oversight of synthetic THC products, proposing to close loopholes created by the 2018 Farm Bill and aligning local rules with new federal standards. A man and woman on St. Thomas were arrested and charged with third-degree assault domestic violence after police say an argument escalated into a stabbing and bottle-throwing incident. As the federal corruption trial of former Police Commissioner Ray Martinez and former OMB Director Jenifer O’Neal continues, our contributing reporter Isabelle Teare recaps the first half of today’s proceedings. Listen to these stories and more.
