    Travel Tragedy

    Malaysia Airlines plane wreckage spotted in Indian Ocean

    UPDATE: Since this article was written, the search for the plane wreckage has shifted. High winds and tides have thus far prevented anyone from recovering objects spotted by satellite in the Indian Ocean and determining definitively what they are. We have updated this story to reflect the ongoing search.

    --

    After more than two weeks of uncertainty, Malaysia Prime Minister Najib Razak announced on March 24 that Malaysia Airlines flight 370 crashed into a remote part of the Indian Ocean. Razak revealed the news during a press conference.

    Razak said the plane's last position was in the middle of the Indian Ocean, west of Perth. "It is a remote location. Far from any possible landing sites. It is therefore with deep sadness and regret that I must inform you that according to this new data, flight MH 370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean."

    All of the families of passengers and crew were informed of the development before the official announcement was made.

    "For them, the past few weeks have been heartbreaking. I know this news must be hard as well," Razak said before asking the media to respect the victims' families' privacy.

    The Malaysia Airlines flight vanished in the air on March 8 with 239 people on board, including one from Keller, Texas. Philip Wood, 50, was one of three Americans on the list of passengers provided by the airline. The plane's lack of communication during its final hours gave way to a number of theories, including that someone may have hijacked the plane and possibly landed it off the grid.

    During the uncertainty, Wood's family created a Facebook page tilted "Finding Philip Wood." After the wreckage was found, they posted an emotional update.

    "Our collective hearts are hurting now. Please lift all the loved ones of MH370 with your good thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your continued support and for being our inspiration."

    A Malaysia Airlines flight that disappeared on March 8 has been found.

    Texas governor intercedes with last-minute save on sales of THC

    The Texas cannabis industry is safe.

    Texas Gov. Greg Abbott vetoed a bill Sunday to ban all THC consumables, allowing the booming market flush with THC-infused vapes, gummies and other products to continue to be sold across the state.

    Abbott, a Republican, waited until the final moment to veto the bill in what would have been one of the most restrictive THC bans in the country and a significant blow to the state’s billion-dollar industry.

    The law would have made it a misdemeanor to own, manufacture, or sell consumable THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, products and was the latest push by states to regulate THC after a 2018 federal law allowed states to regulate hemp, a similar plant to marijuana that can be synthetically processed to produce THC, the compound giving marijuana its psychoactive properties.

    Loopholes in existing law have allowed many THC-infused goods to enter the market across the country, including states with strict marijuana laws.

    Texas has some of the strictest marijuana laws in the country, prohibiting all recreational use and providing a limited medical marijuana program. The consumables market has allowed residents to legally access goods giving a similar high to marijuana.

    Republican lawmakers have criticized the products as dangerous due to a lack of federal oversight in how the goods are manufactured. Texas’ ban is one of the more far-reaching among states that have taken similar steps. Several states, including California, have imposed age limits and restrictions on the potency of THC products.

    Critics of the Texas bill say it allows people who cannot access marijuana through the state’s medical marijuana program to acquire goods that can provide a similar relief. Many retailers across the state also pointed to the thousands of jobs and millions in revenue the industry brings each year.

    Last year, Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed a bill that would have put age restrictions on THC consumables, claiming it would hurt small businesses.
