Cases before that are still under review.
A former DNA analyst with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) manipulated DNA results and “cut corners” – and as a result, all of her work at the agency over nearly 30 years has been called into question.
Those findings emerged from an internal affairs investigation that commenced in September and pertained to Yvonne “Missy” Woods, a devoted employee who has served the CBI faithfully for 29 years. This announcement was made by the agency on Friday.
The Weld County Sheriff’s Office fired a DNA analyst, who worked at a local lab for over 10 years, after an investigation found “anomalies” in her work. FOX31’s Talya Cunningham hears from a legal expert about what this could mean for the cases involved.
New York City’s crime lab has been a pioneer nationally in analyzing especially difficult DNA samples. But the recent disclosure of the source code for its proprietary software is raising new questions about accuracy.
Unlike finicky fingerprints and frowned-upon fiber analysis, DNA evidence has been the most bulletproof evidence for forensic sciences in recent years. But staffers at a research firm in Israel have recently upended the presumed infallibility of this forensics golden child—by making it themselves. Nucleix, a Tel-Aviv-based life sciences company, was able to create credible DNA evidence that could be used to finger the wrong person, proof that even genetic evidence can be manipulated (beyond planting a hair or used cigarette) just like other physical traces. “You can just engineer a crime scene,”
The DOJ investigated Averhealth, emails reviewed by VICE News show, after the company’s ex-lab director testified up to 30 percent of its results in Michigan were wrong.
First on FOX 17, we broke serious allegations that state police crime labs are being told to falsely report marijuana test results. This is resulting in misleading lab reports that an attorney claims creates felonies without real proof.
Attorney Michael Komorn believes a recent policy change in the way Michigan State Police forensic science crime labs report marijuana may have led to years of wrongful convictions.
Komorn called this a “perversion of science,” and “crime labs turned crime factories:” accusations that politics are trumping forensic science by escalating misdemeanor marijuana charges into felonies without proof.
(WXYZ) — The Michigan State Police say more than three thousand cases involving alleged marijuana impairment could have been false positives. Last week, the MSP Forensic Science Division announced they were halting all testing of marijuana drug samples due to the possibility that the tests were positive for CBD, rather than just THC. The state police warned prosecutors not to rely on the THC toxicology results until they could learn more about the alleged problems in the testing.
THC is the psychoactive compound in marijuana. CBD is a chemical found in marijuana that does not produce a high, and CBD has not been considered a controlled substance in Michigan since March 28, 2019.

Smoking, vaping, or consuming marijuana has been found to be associated with a significantly heightened risk of heart attack and stroke, regardless of a person’s pre-existing heart conditions or the absence of tobacco smoking or vaping, according to a recent study.
The study, funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), part of NIH, found that daily use of cannabis — predominately through smoking — was associated with a 25% increased likelihood of heart attack and a 42% increased likelihood of stroke when compared to non-use of the drug.
Less frequent use was also associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. Weekly users showed a 3% increased likelihood of heart attack and a 5% increased likelihood of stroke.
Around 75% of the study participants indicated that their primary consumption method for cannabis was smoking. The remaining 25% reported utilizing alternative methods, including vaping, drinking, or consuming the drug orally.
“We know that toxins are released when cannabis is burned, similar to those found in tobacco smoke,” said corresponding author Abra Jeffers, Ph.D., a data analyst at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and formerly a researcher at the Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education at the University of California, San Francisco, where she conducted the study as part of her postdoctoral work.
Researchers note that while the exact mechanisms linking cannabis to heart disease are unclear and were not explored in the current study, multiple factors could play a role.
In addition to toxins, endocannabinoid receptors — the part of cells responsible for recognizing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis — are widespread in the body’s cardiovascular tissues and might facilitate heart risks.

For the first time, scientists have uncovered the precise neurological impacts of cannabis use that give rise to the phenomenon famously referred to as the “munchies,” as revealed by an innovative study backed by federal funds.
Researchers at Washington State University (WSU) have recently published their findings in the journal Scientific Reports, shedding valuable light on the neural mechanism through which cannabis activates a specific cluster of neurons in the hypothalamus region of the brain, resulting in an increased stimulation of appetite.
The hunger-inducing effects of marijuana are well-known among consumers. However, recent findings from animal research provide valuable insights that could potentially lead to targeted therapeutics for addressing conditions such as anorexia.

After exposing mice to vaporized cannabis, the researchers utilized calcium imaging technology, akin to a brain MRI, to monitor the changes in neuron activity. Through their investigation, they discovered that marijuana vapor attached to cannabinoid-1 receptors in the brain and activated Agouti Related Protein neurons in the hypothalamus, commonly known as “feeding” neurons.
Calcium imaging has been used to study the brain’s reactions to food by other researchers, but this is the first known study to use it to understand those features following cannabis exposure.
As part of this research, it was discovered that the cannabinoid-1 receptor, which is a target of cannabis, regulates the activity of Agouti Related Protein neurons. These particular neurons are well-known for their involvement in controlling feeding behavior and are located in the hypothalamus. This finding sheds light on the intricate connection between the cannabinoid system and the regulation of these essential cells in the brain.
With the help of this information, scientists employed a “chemogenetic” technique, acting as a molecular light switch, to specifically target these neurons in animals exposed to cannabis. By deactivating these neurons, the appetite-stimulating effects of cannabis were no longer present.

“We now know one of the ways that the brain responds to recreational-type cannabis to promote appetite,” said Davis.
This work builds on previous research on cannabis and appetite from Davis’ lab, which was among the first to use whole vaporized cannabis plant matter in animal studies instead of injected THC—in an effort to better mimic how cannabis is used by humans.
In the previous study, researchers discovered genetic alterations in the hypothalamus as a response to cannabis. Therefore, in this investigation, Davis and his colleagues specifically concentrated on this particular region.

This randomized clinical trial investigates the accuracy of field sobriety tests administered by law enforcement officers to assess functional impairment and driving performance among individuals who have smoked cannabis.
How accurate are field sobriety tests (FSTs) in identifying acute Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) impairment?
In this randomized clinical trial of 184 cannabis users randomized to THC or placebo, law enforcement officers classified 81.0% and 49.2%, respectively, as FST impaired, and officers suspected that 99.2% of FST-impaired participants received THC. Driving simulator performance was associated with select FSTs.
In this study, FSTs differentiated between THC- and placebo-exposed participants; however, the substantial overlap of FST impairment between groups and the high frequency at which FST impairment was suspected to be due to THC suggest that absent other indicators, FSTs alone may be insufficient to identify THC-specific driving impairment.

Introduction
Such scalprecorded ERP differences are temporally associated with changes in synaptic and neuronal activity recorded directly from the hippocampus and other MTL structures (Smith et al. 1986;Heit et al. 1988), and are eliminated by lesions to the hippocampus in the language dominant hemisphere (Smith and Halgren 1989;Rugg et al. 1991). Such neurophysiological measures might therefore provide sensitive markers of changes in brain function and memory that accompany marijuana smoking. The present study tested the hypothesis that marijuana smoking would produce acute accuracy and reaction time deficits in WM and EM tasks, accompanied by changes in concomitant neurophysiological signals indicative of impaired memory and attention.
Subjects
Ten casual marijuana smokers 23-31 years old (mean=26.7, 5M, 5F) participated in the study. Casual smokers were defined as those who reported smoking marijuana between once a month and once a week over the last year.
Negative selection criteria included self report of daily cigarette smoking, consumption of more than ten alcoholic drinks per week, family history of drug dependence, and prior habitual use of any illicit drug other than marijuana.
Recording Days
On test days, subjects performed warm-up blocks of the tasks, and then consumed a sandwich and a non-caffeinated beverage for lunch. After an electrode cap was applied, subjects participated in five recording intervals: one pre-smoking baseline interval, and four intervals that took place 0:20, 1:20, 2:20, and 3:20 h:min after smoking.
It was postulated that the neurophysiological effects of marijuana smoking on WM and EM would follow the well-researched time course on physiological and behavioral measures, peaking in the first post-smoking recording interval and steadily dissipating over the next 3 h (Huestis et al. 1992;Joy et al. 1999).
Drug Administration
The active marijuana cigarettes contained 3.45±0.28% Δ 9 -THC and the placebo cigarettes contained 0.006 ±0.00% Δ 9 -THC, as assayed via gas-liquid chromatography by the Research Triangle Institute.
Following the pre-smoking baseline interval, subjects smoked one cigarette containing active marijuana or placebo, counterbalanced across recording days and subjects.
Holding the cigarette in their fingers, subjects took six puffs according to a paced, computerized procedure that was designed to be ecologically valid while standardizing smoking across subjects and sessions.
Tasks
Within an interval, both task blocks used the same 20-word WP list but different recognition lists: the same 20 old words appeared in both WR lists, but the 20 new words were different.
Subjects therefore had the opportunity to demonstrate learning by being tested twice on the same word list in each interval.
In this way, the battery was designed to test the effects of marijuana on encoding of episodic information (WP task), sustained attention and working memory over a period of approximately 5-10 s (WM task), retrieval of episodic information presented 5-10 min previously (WR task), and learning (comparison of recognition memory between the first and the second time through a study list).
Data Analysis
Because topographic differences due to marijuana effects were generally not observed, analyses of power spectra bands and ERPs were conducted at the electrode site with maximum amplitude across the group of subjects.
Background EEG power spectra were computed in the WP and WM tasks and the resting conditions by segmenting continuous data into 4-s epochs and computing fast Fourier transforms on 2 s windows with 50% overlap. In the WR task, 1-s windows with no overlap following the old or new response were used.
Performance
Following marijuana smoking, accuracy decreased in the high [F(1,9)=6.98, P<0.05], but not the low load version P>0.10. Reaction time (RT) in the WM task increased after smoking marijuana [F(1,9)=16.15, P<0.01], and this response slowing did not differ between the two load levels (P>0.10). Marijuana smoking did not affect accuracy or speed of classifying words as red or green during the encoding WP task (P>0.05 for all comparisons).
Erps
This slow wave was preceded by a centrally maximum “N400” negative potential peaking at approximately 350 ms that was more negative to new words than to old words [F(1,9) =50.41, P<0.001]. As was the case in the WM and WP tasks, marijuana smoking tended to attenuate ERP amplitudes in the WR task, an effect observed for the slow wave [F(4,36)=3.79, P<0.05], but not for N400.
Although this slow wave amplitude attenuation did not interact with the magnitude of the old/new word difference in the subject group as a whole, examination of individual subjects suggested that those who became most intoxicated evinced a marked reduction in the memory-evoked shift after smoking marijuana, as discussed below.
Discussion
Across all subjects, marijuana smoking had a number of global neurophysiological effects. ERP components thought to reflect stages of memory encoding, manipulation, and retrieval, such as the slow waves in the WP and WR tasks and the P300 in the WM task, decreased in amplitude after marijuana smoking.
Such decreases suggest that less transient attention was devoted to processing the colors, dots, and words during performance of the various tasks.

When it comes to enforcing drugged driving laws, police and employers face a unique challenge with marijuana. Unlike alcohol, which is metabolized and eliminated relatively quickly, THC, the psychoactive compound in marijuana, can remain detectable in the blood for several days or even weeks after use.
This is because THC is highly fat-soluble, meaning that it dissolves easily in fat cells. Once THC is absorbed into the bloodstream, it is distributed throughout the body, including the fat cells. When THC reaches the brain, it binds to cannabinoid receptors, producing the intoxicating effects associated with marijuana use.
As the intoxicating effects of THC wear off, it is released from the brain and redistributed to other tissues, including the fat cells. THC can be stored in fat cells for weeks or even months, and it is released slowly back into the bloodstream over time.
This means that a blood test for THC can detect past marijuana use, even if the individual is no longer under the influence. This poses a challenge for law enforcement and employers, who may want to use blood tests to identify drivers or employees who are currently impaired by marijuana.
A number of studies have investigated the relationship between THC blood levels and impairment. One study found that THC blood levels above 5 ng/mL were associated with an increased risk of impaired driving performance. However, another study found that some individuals with THC blood levels below 5 ng/mL were still impaired, while others with THC blood levels above 5 ng/mL were not impaired.
These findings suggest that THC blood levels are not a reliable indicator of impairment. Other factors, such as individual metabolism, tolerance, and route of administration, can also play a role.
Implications
The limitations of THC blood tests for detecting impairment have important implications for law enforcement and employers. Law enforcement officers should not rely solely on blood tests to determine whether a driver is impaired by marijuana. They should also consider other factors, such as the driver’s behavior and performance on field sobriety tests.
Employers who use blood tests to screen employees for marijuana use should be aware that a positive test result does not necessarily mean that the employee is impaired at work. Employers should have a clear policy in place for responding to positive drug tests, and they should take into account all relevant factors, such as the employee’s job duties and performance.
Conclusion
THC detection in blood is a complex issue with important implications for law enforcement and employers. It is important to understand the limitations of THC blood tests and to use them in conjunction with other information to assess impairment.
