I started this week by crying with the internet and ended it by confiscating eye drops from unsuspecting patients, which is honestly peak ophthalmologist behavior. In this episode, I walk through a mystery case that showed up in my clinic (spoiler: droopy eyelids are rarely simple), explain why “clear eyes” doesn't actually mean clear eyes, and rant about fake homeopathic drops pretending to treat pink eye. I also reflect on what it's like to head to Australia and tell a room full of surgeons why they absolutely should not copy our U.S. healthcare system. Oh—and there's a guy with a literal flashlight eye prosthesis, and I think I'm in love. Takeaways: Your Redness Relief Eye Drops Are Lying to You. If I took your bottle of Visine away, it's because I like you—and I want you to stop putting menthol-laced lies directly onto your corneas. Droopy Eyelid? Might Be Nothing. Might Be Neurology. One eyelid. One confusing pupil. Zero time to guess wrong. This one kept me thinking longer than it should've. Homeopathic Eye Drops: Tap Water with a Fancy Label. Just because it sounds gentle doesn't mean it works. And yes, I have an actual drawer of confiscated drops at work. I'm Telling the Australians Everything. They asked me to talk about U.S. healthcare. I packed my "No UnitedHealthcare" scrub cap. Pray for them. The Flashlight Eye Prosthesis Changed My Life. This guy engineered a Terminator-style prosthetic that literally lights up—and somehow, that was not even the weirdest part of my week. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

The moment your automobile doors are shut with the driveshaft engaged; the contest is underway. Regardless of who is behind the wheel of other vehicles competing for space on the road, your primary objective is to circumvent them to save precious minutes enroute to your destination. And although the unidentified drivers against whom you jockey for position are often good people in your own neighborhood, they have now become faceless adversaries crowding the track. Like the butts of cigarettes, courtesies are flicked out the window. And there's no surprise that this daily race causes tension. Because traffic is a drain on your fragile psyche. And you are not proud of who you become in these moments of frustration when it turns you into a triggered bitch. You see, we all have a threshold of tolerance that, when crossed, causes a discomforting level of anxiety and stress, fueling the impatience and adding to life's pressures. And because there is no immediate resolve, you learn to live with the strangulation while building a resentment that weighs on you like an addict's regret. You blame the other drivers. “Oh, if only those idiots hadn't dug themselves into that inescapable cavern of debt like I did.” There's the mortgage, the auto loan, the kids, the boob job—all the shit you have on autopay that prevents you from turning right out of the driveway instead of left. That's the right turn that leaves the city toward a tropical paradise--far, far away from the giant magnet that tugs you into the grind. Fortunately, Cannabis improves your perception. One small toke from a vape pen makes the speakers speak, the seat heaters glow, and the engine vibrate comfortably for the most optimal enjoyment during your relaxed commute. You are quite aware that it is against the law to drive stoned. Thank God for Visine.
On a hot South Carolina afternoon in July, 2018, Lana Clayton frantically flagged down a passerby. She told him her husband, Steven Clayton, had fallen down the stairs and she feared he was dead. The initial investigation concluded that Steven had a heart attack. But Steven's relatives felt like something wasn't right, and pushed for an autopsy.

In this episode I dive into my list of the top five things I would never do as an ophthalmologist, from using Visine to playing with fireworks. I also explores the critical connection between nutrition and eye health, detailing how vitamin deficiencies like B1 and vitamin A can lead to conditions such as Wernicke's encephalopathy and xerophthalmia. Takeaways: Top 5 Things Ophthalmologists Avoid: Dr. Flannery shares his professional no-nos, including using Visine, playing with fireworks, using bungee cords, sleeping in contact lenses, and delaying cataract surgery, all of which carry significant risks to eye health. The Dangers of Vitamin A Deficiency: A lack of vitamin A can lead to night blindness, xerophthalmia, and corneal scarring, underscoring the importance of a vitamin-rich diet. B Vitamins and Eye Health: Dr. Flannery explains how deficiencies in thiamine (B1) and folate (B9) can cause nutritional optic neuropathy and Wernicke's encephalopathy, both of which may result in vision loss. Humor Meets Eye Safety: True to his style, Dr. Flannery uses humor to explain the dangers of fireworks, bungee cords, and other seemingly harmless activities that can cause serious eye injuries. Preventing Nutritional Eye Disorders: Maintaining a balanced diet with leafy greens, carrots, and other nutrient-rich foods can protect against preventable eye conditions and support overall eye health. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

A Gaston County judge on Monday ordered that Joshua Hunsucker, a former paramedic from North Carolina, remain behind bars without bond after prosecutors described him as a danger to his children and in-laws. Hunsucker is accused of using tetrahydrozoline, a toxic chemical found in Visine eye drops, to murder his wife, 32-year-old Stacy Hunsucker, in 2018 and to poison their 10-year-old daughter in 2023. Prosecutors allege that Hunsucker attempted to implicate his wife's parents, John and Suzie Robinson, in both incidents. The Robinsons, who were present in court, had filed a motion in August requesting the revocation of Hunsucker's bond, citing concerns over alleged harassment and intimidation. They claim Hunsucker has been following them, harassing them, and attempting to remove them from their grandchildren's lives. Initially, the death of Stacy Hunsucker was attributed to natural causes due to reported heart issues. However, suspicions arose when it was revealed that her husband had requested no autopsy and a swift cremation. As an organ donor, tests on her organs and blood later detected the presence of tetrahydrozoline, leading to murder charges against Hunsucker in December 2019. He had been released on a $1.5 million bond at that time. In 2023, Hunsucker reported to the Mount Holly Police Department that John Robinson had attacked and kidnapped him. According to the police report, Hunsucker claimed he was pistol-whipped, zip-tied, and injected with an unknown substance. Authorities have found no evidence supporting these allegations. Prosecutors argue that Hunsucker fabricated the incident to frame the Robinsons and divert attention from his own actions. In addition to first-degree murder and insurance fraud charges related to his wife's death, Hunsucker now faces new charges connected to his daughter's alleged poisoning and the harassment of his in-laws. These include four counts of intimidation of a witness and four counts of obstruction of justice. While he was granted a $25,000 bond for these new charges, the judge noted that he would remain in custody due to the severity of the allegations and the revocation of his previous bond. "The poisoning of his daughter was once again done with an attempt to implicate Mr. and Mrs. Robinson in the death of his wife and remove the Robinsons from the lives of his daughters," the motion to revoke Hunsucker's bond stated. The Robinsons have expressed relief at the court's decision to keep Hunsucker detained, emphasizing their concerns for their safety and the well-being of their grandchildren. The case remains ongoing as prosecutors continue to build their case against Hunsucker. AND! WHILE OUT ON BOND FOR HIS WIFE'S MURDER…. Hunsucker, charged with fatally poisoning his wife with eye drops in 2018, pleaded not guilty to felony arson on for allegedly setting a medical helicopter on fire. Joshua Hunsucker, accused of igniting a syringe pump mid-flight on November 26, 2019, forced the Atrium Health helicopter to make an emergency landing at a car dealership on Independence Boulevard in Charlotte. Hunsucker was charged with felony property damage to Atrium Health, posting bond shortly after his arrest. At the time, he was already out on bond awaiting trial for the alleged murder of his wife, Stacy Robinson Hunsucker. Just weeks after the helicopter incident, he was taken back into custody and formally charged with her murder. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Matt Bair and Ryan Hedrick discuss how everyday household items can be used as drug paraphernalia. They cover items like PVC pipes, spoons, and even fruit. The episode is about helping caregivers recognize these things, but the focus is on behavior changes as the real warning signs. Instead of getting caught up in objects, pay attention to how your loved one is acting. Timestamps & Key Takeaways: 5:35 - 6:38: Ryan shares how he and his friends used bounce sheets and toilet paper rolls to trick their parents and hide their drug use. 6:50 - 8:09: Matt talks about early warning signs of someone starting to use drugs or alcohol. Look out for shifts in behavior or routines. 8:13 - 9:06: Matt's “favorite” paraphernalia was an empty liquor bottle—highlighting how addicts can get attached to these objects. 9:15 - 11:15: Matt shares how his “dealer” was just the liquor store, and Ryan talks about the distinct smell of cocaine. 11:39 - 12:30: Fentanyl can be odorless, making it harder to detect. The paraphernalia used for fentanyl can vary widely. 12:44 - 15:15: Toiletry items are often repurposed for smoking weed. Addicts get creative fruit, like apples and oranges, can also be used for drug use. 15:16 - 16:07: Money is a common tool for people ingesting drugs like cocaine or other powders. 16:08 - 17:30: Spoons are often linked to heroin use. Check the bottom of spoons—if it's burnt, it could be a sign of use. 17:45 - 18:15: Matt describes how a mask can be used to inhale substances and get high. 18:20 - 19:30: Ryan shares his experience using a light bulb to smoke drugs. 19:40 - 21:00: A "bullet" is a small container that holds cocaine, making it easy to conceal. Caregivers should be aware of this item. 21:00 - 24:00: Visine and sunglasses can also be signs—used to hide bloodshot eyes or dilated pupils. 25:15: Closing Thoughts—Stay aware of behavior changes more than objects. Paraphernalia can be anything, but how your loved one acts is always the best indicator. Resources: You can find us on X and Instagram: @sobriety_pod.

I know what you are thinking: What in the world do veronal and visine have to do with eachother? Well, they both begin with V, and I was going to discuss a third medicine in this episode called colchicine, which kinda rhymes with visine, but well, I got too excited during my research and there just was not enough time in the episode for that last one. No worries, though, I will be covering it next week alongside whatever else we bring to you. Anyway, veronal and a chemical found in visine (as well as other eye-drops advertised to "get the red out") called tetrahydrozoline, were/are medications that have been used to do harm and we should discuss it. So come learn some toxic stuff with us! Thanks again to all of our listeners and to our monthly supporters! We are so thankful for all of you and happy to bring you episodes every week!

Stefan Alexandru Barabas was involved in a home invasion and extortion scheme in South Kent, Connecticut, on April 15, 2007. Along with Emanuel Nicolescu, Alexandru Nicolescu, and Michael N. Kennedy (also known as Nicolae Helerea), Barabas broke into a home, masked and armed, and injected the residents with a substance they claimed was lethal, demanding $8.5 million for the antidote. When the victims couldn't comply, the intruders drugged them with sleeping pills and fled in the homeowner's Jeep, which they abandoned the next day.The investigation linked Barabas and his accomplices through DNA evidence, cell phone records, and a connection to an accordion case containing items used in the crime. Barabas was a fugitive until his arrest, years later, as part of a broader investigation that saw his co-conspirators convicted and sentenced to lengthy prison terms.James Toliver Craig is a dentist from Aurora, Colorado, who was arrested for the alleged murder of his wife, Angela Craig, through poisoning. James Craig, 45, was taken into custody on March 19, 2023, and charged with first-degree murder. His arrest followed Angela Craig's death after she experienced severe health issues attributed to poisoning by cyanide and tetrahydrozoline, an ingredient found in Visine.According to court documents, Angela Craig fell ill several times before her death, exhibiting symptoms consistent with poisoning. James Craig was found to have purchased toxic substances, including arsenic and potassium cyanide, and had used his office computer to research undetectable poisons. Investigations revealed that he ordered these chemicals under the pretext of using them for medical research and dental procedures.Further complicating the case, it was discovered that James Craig was in communication with another woman during the period of his wife's illness, suggesting a possible motive related to an extramarital affair. Additionally, while in jail, Craig faced new charges of solicitation to commit tampering with physical evidence, as he allegedly tried to persuade someone to interfere with the investigation.(commercial at 8:00)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Home invader who injected 2 with 'deadly virus' convicted (lawandcrime.com)

In a culmination of a chilling case that has gripped Waukesha, Wisconsin, Jessy Kurczewski, 40, was handed a life sentence for the first-degree intentional homicide of her friend, Lynn Hernan. Judge Jennifer Dorow delivered the verdict on Friday in a Waukesha courtroom, leaving Kurczewski relatively emotionless until she broke down during her nearly two-hour-long testimony. Kurczewski's crime came to light in October 2018 when authorities found Lynn Hernan unconscious in her recliner with crushed medication and prescription bottles nearby. What initially seemed like a tragic accident soon turned into a homicide investigation as the Waukesha County Medical Examiner discovered a fatal amount of tetrahydrozoline, the main ingredient in eye drops, in Hernan's system. According to the criminal complaint filed in June 2021, Kurczewski, who was presented as a family friend, had been checking in on Hernan regularly. She initially suggested the possibility of Hernan being suicidal but later denied any involvement in her death, claiming she had saved Hernan from herself in the past. However, further investigation revealed disturbing details. Kurczewski confessed to giving Hernan a water bottle laced with six bottles of Visine, believing it wouldn't kill her since Hernan had been consuming eye drops regularly. This revelation led to Kurczewski's conviction of premeditated murder and theft. During the sentencing hearing, Judge Dorow emphasized the severity of Kurczewski's crimes, handing down the maximum sentences for theft charges and stating her intent to keep Kurczewski incarcerated until she was no longer a threat to society. The courtroom was filled with emotional outbursts from Hernan's loved ones, who expressed their disdain for Kurczewski. James Keliher, one of Hernan's friends, labeled Kurczewski as a "monster" and urged the court to impose a harsher sentence, expressing his belief that Kurczewski had systematically poisoned Hernan for years while exploiting her financially. Keliher's statement encapsulated the sentiments of many present, describing Kurczewski as "pure evil" and wishing her a fate fitting for her heinous crimes. Late last year, her lawyers were allowed to withdraw from the case after a jailhouse letter penned by Kurczewski surfaced. The lengthy cursive document even attempts to implicate one of the defendant's lawyers — though it doesn't say which one. “I trust you and whether you help or not this is something I need you to take to your grave,” the letter said. “Even this envelope didn't go out through jail mail, my attorney took it. This was one of my attorneys [sic] ideas and clearly they arent [sic] going to tell anyone.” Nobody has her on voice recording. She has an older, raspy, smokers [sic] cough and was sick. Female voice. Always coughing and smoking. I feel like theres [sic] programs online to change voices — theres [sic] so much technology these days, she was sick and did it 2 days before her death, nobodys [sic] going too knoow if its [sic] her or not, its [sic] been 5 years … Honestly you could even have a movie or music on in the background to help distract. She always had one on and loud — I would just be cautious that its [sic] music (she loved Gaga) or a movie from before her death if you do that so it doesn't raise a red flag.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
In a culmination of a chilling case that has gripped Waukesha, Wisconsin, Jessy Kurczewski, 40, was handed a life sentence for the first-degree intentional homicide of her friend, Lynn Hernan. Judge Jennifer Dorow delivered the verdict on Friday in a Waukesha courtroom, leaving Kurczewski relatively emotionless until she broke down during her nearly two-hour-long testimony. Kurczewski's crime came to light in October 2018 when authorities found Lynn Hernan unconscious in her recliner with crushed medication and prescription bottles nearby. What initially seemed like a tragic accident soon turned into a homicide investigation as the Waukesha County Medical Examiner discovered a fatal amount of tetrahydrozoline, the main ingredient in eye drops, in Hernan's system. According to the criminal complaint filed in June 2021, Kurczewski, who was presented as a family friend, had been checking in on Hernan regularly. She initially suggested the possibility of Hernan being suicidal but later denied any involvement in her death, claiming she had saved Hernan from herself in the past. However, further investigation revealed disturbing details. Kurczewski confessed to giving Hernan a water bottle laced with six bottles of Visine, believing it wouldn't kill her since Hernan had been consuming eye drops regularly. This revelation led to Kurczewski's conviction of premeditated murder and theft. During the sentencing hearing, Judge Dorow emphasized the severity of Kurczewski's crimes, handing down the maximum sentences for theft charges and stating her intent to keep Kurczewski incarcerated until she was no longer a threat to society. The courtroom was filled with emotional outbursts from Hernan's loved ones, who expressed their disdain for Kurczewski. James Keliher, one of Hernan's friends, labeled Kurczewski as a "monster" and urged the court to impose a harsher sentence, expressing his belief that Kurczewski had systematically poisoned Hernan for years while exploiting her financially. Keliher's statement encapsulated the sentiments of many present, describing Kurczewski as "pure evil" and wishing her a fate fitting for her heinous crimes. Late last year, her lawyers were allowed to withdraw from the case after a jailhouse letter penned by Kurczewski surfaced. The lengthy cursive document even attempts to implicate one of the defendant's lawyers — though it doesn't say which one. “I trust you and whether you help or not this is something I need you to take to your grave,” the letter said. “Even this envelope didn't go out through jail mail, my attorney took it. This was one of my attorneys [sic] ideas and clearly they arent [sic] going to tell anyone.” Nobody has her on voice recording. She has an older, raspy, smokers [sic] cough and was sick. Female voice. Always coughing and smoking. I feel like theres [sic] programs online to change voices — theres [sic] so much technology these days, she was sick and did it 2 days before her death, nobodys [sic] going too knoow if its [sic] her or not, its [sic] been 5 years … Honestly you could even have a movie or music on in the background to help distract. She always had one on and loud — I would just be cautious that its [sic] music (she loved Gaga) or a movie from before her death if you do that so it doesn't raise a red flag.

Director and legendary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson is known for nonfiction work that is inventive, artful, expressive, and maximal. The same can be said of the film that blew her mind -- Bob Fosse's All That Jazz. The semi-autobiographical film brings us Joe Gideon (Roy Scheider), a peripatetic creative force working simultaneously to mount a major Broadway production and complete post-production on a feature film, all while maintaining a lifestyle fueled by cigarettes, pills, one-night stands, and Visine, and still finding time for his adoring 12-year old daughter, Michelle. We learn why the iconic film first transfixed Kirsten, and how she continues to be inspired by Fosse's ingenious use of dance, documentary, theater, music, and more. Host John Cooper shares his personal ties to the film, calling on his days in New York's theater scene of the 1970s. And co-host Tabitha Jackson (a.k.a.

Jessy Kurczewski, a 39-year-old Wisconsin woman, has been found guilty of first-degree intentional homicide and two counts of theft in connection to the death of her longtime friend, Lynn Hernan. The shocking case unfolded when Hernan was discovered dead in her Pewaukee condo on October 3, 2018, with crushed medication on her chest. Initially, Kurczewski claimed Hernan had taken her own life, but a Waukesha County medical examiner revealed the presence of tetrahydrozoline, the main ingredient in Visine, in Hernan's system, leading to the declaration of her death as a homicide. Kurczewski confessed to dumping six bottles of Visine into a water bottle, which she gave to Hernan under the guise that Hernan had requested the tainted water due to suicidal thoughts. Despite her seemingly caring facade, Kurczewski had a hidden agenda. While Kurczewski portrayed herself as a concerned friend, investigators discovered that she was exploiting Hernan's death for financial gain. Opening credit cards in Hernan's name and draining her bank account, Kurczewski stole nearly $300,000 from the deceased woman. "She didn't spend the day worried about Lynn. She was opening a JC Penney account in Lynn's name, and she was using other accounts of Lynn to go shopping, do some online shopping, while she knew she just had given Lynn poison," remarked Waukesha County Asst. District Attorney Randy Sitzberger. Hernan, who considered Kurczewski like a daughter, unwittingly became a victim of greed. Investigators revealed that Kurczewski had searched for "household poisons," further implicating her in the premeditated crime. Kurczewski's arrest occurred nearly a year after Hernan's death when authorities uncovered the extensive financial fraud. She had maxed out her own credit cards and received suspiciously large checks, including one for over $130,000, from Hernan before the murder. In court, Kurczewski sobbed as the jury delivered its verdict. Deputy District Attorney Abbey Nickolie condemned her actions, stating, "The defendant betrayed Lynn out of greed." Kurczewski now faces mandatory life in prison for the homicide charge and is set to be sentenced on December 7. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

James Craig, the Aurora dentist accused of poisoning his wife, will not enter a plea in his murder case until early October. Dressed in an orange jail jumpsuit, Craig listened as his attorneys argued that they were not ready for the arraignment, originally scheduled for Tuesday, as they still had 2,000 pages of discovery to comb through. John Kellner, the 18th judicial district attorney, objected to the postponement, stating Angela Pray Craig's siblings "want to continue without delay." Craig's sister and two brothers attended the hearing via WebEx, as did the relatives of her husband. Meanwhile, the couple's six children deferred their opinion on the postponement to both parties, according to their attorney. James Craig, 45, faces a first-degree murder charge for the death of his wife, Angela, 43, who died under mysterious circumstances on March 18, 2023. Craig was arrested the next day. Aurora police believe Craig had a motive to kill his wife as his marriage and business were struggling, and he had recently started a romantic relationship with a Texas orthodontist when he allegedly began his plans, according to the arrest affidavit. Prosecutors claim that Angela Craig died from a combination of cyanide and tetrahydrozoline, a decongestant found in over-the-counter eyedrops like Visine. The arrest document noted that Angela first visited the Parker Adventist Hospital on March 6, complaining of dizziness and feeling that "her head wasn't right," but was released that day. She visited again three days later when her symptoms reappeared and remained in the hospital for five days. On March 16, her brother, Mark Pray, rushed her to the CU Anschutz emergency room, where she collapsed and died two days later. Police suspect that James Craig poisoned his wife with potassium cyanide, which he allegedly disguised in her protein shakes, as the arrest affidavit contended. However, Craig's lawyers argued during the preliminary hearing that there was no evidence that the poison originated in the drink that Craig claimed he prepared for her after a workout. James Craig is expected to enter a plea on October 9 in Arapahoe County Court. The case has garnered significant attention, not only because of the nature of the crime but also due to the insidious method allegedly employed by James Craig. As previously discussed by retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer on the "Hidden Killers" podcast, poisoning is a rare and calculated method of murder, often chosen by particularly sadistic individuals. Coffindaffer noted that while poisoning is not a common choice for murderers, it is often selected by those with a patient and calculating mind, characteristics that seem to align with the actions of James Craig as described in the arrest affidavit. As the case progresses, the details of Angela Craig's final days and the actions of James Craig will be meticulously examined in court. With the arraignment postponed until October 9, both the prosecution and defense will have additional time to prepare their cases, ensuring that all aspects of this tragic event are thoroughly investigated.

- I was at the farmers market last week to buy some fruits and vegetables. They also have a fresh pasta stand there too. I normally don't buy pasta at the farmers' market, but for some reason, I wanted to buy fresh pasta- The guy that was selling it was super blazed. His eyes were super red. And he smelled of weed - no judgment on my part. I used to be him. When I used to go to the farmers market, I would smoke weed in the car before I shopped for food. I just wanted to be high. And my eyes would be super red. A lot of times, I would not have Visine with me- But it is nice not to smoke weed and worry about red eyes. I'm fine with others that want to smoke weed. I'm not anti-weed. And I do think it serves a purpose. But it made me think I don't have to get high just to do errands like shopping at the farmers market. Shopping at the farmers market shouldn't have to feel like a chore. Now I go to the market to shop for fruits and vegetables, and I enjoy it without being high
Millionaire, Philanthropist, mentor, entrepreneur, and everyone's favorite uncle Steven Clayton was the life of the party anywhere he went. He had built a gorgeous life for himself after his retirement at only 40 years old and he chose to indulge in the finer things in life like traveling, fine wines, art, and exotic plants, however there is no doubt that Steven was a humble man.If there was ever an opportunity for him to share knowledge with young aspiring adults around him, he would not hesitate to do so at any hour of the day or night. He met his seventh wife, Lana Clayton on an online dating app in 2010 and they would marry in Charlotte, NC in 2013. They would eventually settle in his George Washington replica home on Lake Wiley, SC which he dubbed the Clayton Estate but unfortunately, only five years into their marriage, there seemed to be trouble in paradise. Steven would be found at the bottom of his mansion's staircase on the morning of July 21, 2018 and his wife Lana would run out the front door for help. She admitted he was dealing with vertigo for the past 3 days and thought he was just too dizzy and fell down the stairs without even knowing it. But was it really just his vertigo, or was there something more sinister at play?Listen to Tiffany and Sam discuss his case and you make your own assumptions.

On July 21st, 2018, Lana Clayton was spotted running into the road by a motorcyclist. She had found her husband, Steve, collapsed and unresponsive at the bottom of the stairs. The police arrived at the Clayton home along with Steve's nephews. Although the police initially believed Steve had died from a heart attack, there were many red flags during the investigation. Lana was a nurse but had made no attempt to revive her husband. She also denied Steve had a will and pushed for cremation to avoid any tests being run on the body, After Steve's nephews grew suspicious of Lana's behavior, they requested a toxicology report and autopsy, It turns out Steve had tetrahydrozoline, or THZ, present in his system. THZ can be found in eye drops, such as Visine, and can kill someone if consumed. Lana's story quickly began to unravel and soon found herself at the center of the investigation.

太太終於認罪。當法醫詢問太太,為何先生的咖啡裡會有毒素存在時,太太一開始的解釋是先生有時會把眼藥水加入咖啡幫助腸胃蠕動(Visine 眼藥水若吃入體內會造成腹瀉)但是法醫和警察認為 Lana 非常可疑,所以開始質詢調查。 ---- 免費電子報:Podcast 字稿、國際新聞整理 https://www.kevinenglishpodcast.com/podcast-opt-in

Today's Question: An employee is sprayed in the face with a chemical and immediately loses vision. A co-worker rushes him over to the eyewash station where his eyes are continuously flushed for 15 minutes. On the way to the eye doctor, the employee's vision returns. A doctor examines the eyes and determines the quick response to flush the injured employee's eyes worked well. The doctor tells the employee to take the rest of the shift off to rest at home with cold wash rags over his eyes 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off until bedtime. The doctor also suggests over the counter Visine eye drops if he experiences any irritation. The doctor returns the employee to full duty the next shift. Is it recordable?

The Buzzards go round two on the commodification of marijuana in the United States. Previously we spoke with Patrick Ryder and Brian Jones about the few insurance companies that will cover growers, distributors and sellers on Five Dollar Buzz Episode 10, "Cannabis Cultivation to Corporation" (audio only on Spotify and iTunes). On this episode, we discuss the world of cannabis hedge funds with the leader of the finance industry Sean Stiefel, the CEO of Navy Capital (navycapital.com) and returning guest Brian D. Jones, who is the Executive Vice President of QuadScore Insurance Services. Navy Capital was founded in 2016 with Sean becoming its CEO in 2019. Prior to founding Navy Capital, Seanl was a research analyst and trader for Northwoods Capital Management Partners, a TMT-focused global long/short hedge fund. He had previously served as an associate within an equity long/short fund at Millennium Partners, and he began his career as an equities trading analyst for Barclays Capital. He is a graduate of the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business. As mentioned before, Brian D. Jones joined QuadScore Insurance Services as the Executive Vice President in 2021. He contributes a wealth of diverse insurance industry experience. His depth of knowledge in handling a broad array of complex operational, regulatory, underwriting, management, and actuarial matters also added value to his previous roles at Hartford Life, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Hartford Investment Management Company, and AXA XL, a division of AXA. Most recently, he was on the front lines of the cannabis insurance market from its infancy in 2017 through its maturation. He developed an underwriting strategy for the cannabis account portfolio and kept his team up to date on changes in the market. Mr. Jones developed a thorough distribution channel of brokers who work with cannabis clients, and he regularly meets with executive-level stakeholders to design solutions and innovative ways to insure their risks. We are at the forefront of turning marijuana into an industry as respectable as any produce you'd find in your average grocery store. It's big business and as more states climb aboard its legalization and these businesses require the fiduciary support that finance strategists and insurance companies provide. So, pack it, light it and take another hit from the bong as FIVE DOLLAR BUZZ keeps relevant with our namesake (probably more like TWENTY DOLLAR GUMMIES in modern times) and goes straight to the lungs of an ever-growing - and reputable - business. The future looks bright but we're only wearing shades so you can't see our red-stained eyes. We keep a healthy supply of Visine in our war chest (wonder how that business has flourished in recent years). And please remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel and/or our audio-only versions on iTunes and Spotify. If you have any questions, comments, potential topics or guests please email us at FIVEDOLLARBUZZ@gmail.com. We'll answer you back shortly after we finish eating that entire dozen of Krispy Kremes we had delivered because we can't really get off the couch
On the outside the two seem perfectly happy and in love so when her husband was found dead at the bottom of the stairs police thought it was just natural causes. It wasnt until his family voiced their suspicion and demanded the police take another look that they started to notice the red flags.
