Temple, Belton police eye vape shops for hemp compliance
Bell County, Tx (FOX44) – The Temple Police and Belton Police departments have executed evidentiary search warrants for multiple vape and smoke shop locations. The Temple Police Department Special Investigations Unit opened an investigation into numerous vape and smoke shops in the Temple and Belton area starting in January of 2025. This investigation stemmed from information provided by citizens of the community and fellow officers who expressed concern about the type of inventory being sold. The investigation became widespread, including assistance from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Waco Police Department, Killeen Police Department, Bell County Sheriff's Office, and Belton Police Department, working in conjunction with the Temple Police Department to purchase and test items from these stores. During this investigation, it became apparent that some products in these stores were mislabeled and incorrectly claimed to be in compliance with the 2018 Hemp Farm Bill. The Temple Police Department purchased numerous items that claimed to be in compliance and tested them at the Department of Public Safety Crime Lab and the NMS Laboratory, which is an approved lab by the Department of Public Safety, and the Belton Police Department used Armstrong Laboratories to test their items. These lab results confirmed that some of the products displayed in these stores are mislabeled and not actually in compliance. The results from every shop tested showed that the product referred to as 'flower' and the 'flower' pre-rolls were not in compliance with the 2018 Hemp Farm Bill as labeled, and tested positive for marijuana over the allowed 0.3%. Additionally, multiple shops that claimed to be selling THC-A products produced a lab result of Delta 9 Tetrahydrocannabinol. At around 10:30 a.m. on Friday, June 13, the Temple Police Department and the Belton Police Department conducted multiple evidentiary search warrants at the 100 block of S 25th Street, the 400 block of N 3rd Street, the 4300 block of S 31st Street, the 6500 block of W Adams Avenue, the 5700 block of W Adams Avenue the 2800 block of W Adams Avenue, and in Belton at the 2600 block of N Main Street. Section 297A of the H.R. 5485 2018 Farm Bill states, 'The term 'hemp' means the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of that plant, including the seeds thereof and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis,' As a public service police said many locations in the area have been identified to be falsely advertising their products by stating they contain the legal amount of THC. Certified letters will be sent to these locations informing the owners that their products have been tested by DPS Crime Lab and the NMS laboratories and are confirmed to contain illegal amounts of THC. The Temple Police Department Units that were involved in these warrants include the Special Investigations Unit, Criminal Investigations Division, Crime Scene Investigators, Patrol, Training, and the SWAT Team. The total personnel for this operation were approximately 65 total officers. This case is under investigation, and police said no other information will be released at this time. Anyone with information should contact the Temple Police Department at 254-298-5500 or the Bell County Crime Stoppers at 254-526-8477, where callers can report anonymously.

Vermont passes bill for towns to fund new construction, enacts other reforms
MONTPELIER, Vt. (ABC22/FOX44) – A long-awaited compromise on housing that gives towns more options to fund building projects, a bill addressing the impact of social media on children that will likely face challenges in court, and a reform that will seal many criminal history records were among ten bills Vermont Governor Phil Scott signed into law Thursday. Senate Bill 127, on housing, was perhaps the bill that took the most work by both chambers of the state assembly. The bill establishes the Community Housing Infrastructure Program (CHIP), which lets cities and towns fund housing projects by taking out loans to be repaid later, with the increased tax revenue gained from the projects. It was passed by the Vermont Senate this past March, and went through a long process of amendment before final passage May 30. VT Governor calls for action on housing legislation This bill on housing also includes a provision to award up to $20,000 to people helping to build houses in empty lots, and establishes a state program to offer low-interest loans to cities and towns aiming to improve their infrastructure. Scott made a special statement on Senate Bill 69, the Vermont Kids Code, which you can read more about in its own article below. Vermont signs Kids Code into law, faces legal challenges Senate Bill 12 changes the procedures for sealing someone's criminal history after they have completed serving a sentence. Under previous Vermont law, when asking for a crime to be sealed the burden of proof is on the petitioner to show that sealing 'serves the interests of justice', while S. 12 moves this burden over to the state. The governor also signed S. 45, which protects farmers from nuisance lawsuits for activities that comply with generally accepted farming practice, S. 122, which funds several groups that aid small businesses in the state and explores the development of a convention center, and S. 126, which aims to lower health care costs by allowing 'reference-based pricing,' along with four other bills. VT House passes healthcare 'redesign', now goes to Senate The Vermont state legislature is currently scheduled to adjourn for the summer on June 17, The adjournment has already been postponed at least once as the legislature said it needed more time to work out important reforms.

PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. (ABC22/FOX44) – The Plattsburgh man who previously pleaded guilty to murdering two New York women, a mother and daughter, will face over 50 years imprisonment. ABC22/FOX44's Matt Lawfer was in the courtroom for the sentencing of James Hewett, who reportedly did not talk throughout the proceedings. Hewett was initially charged back in December. Police investigating a fire at the Abenaki Mobile Home Park found the remains of daughter Miranda Wade, 42, and mother Karen Lindsay, 64. Authorities confirmed that Hewett had killed them, dismembered them with a chainsaw, placed their remains in garbage bags and set their home on fire to hide evidence.
