Michigan opioid prescriptions down 15 percent last year
LANSING (AP) — The Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs says the number of opioids dispensed in the state decreased by 15 percent in 2018 compared with the year before.
It says the number of opioid prescriptions dispensed fell to 8.2 million last year compared with 9.7 million in 2017.
During the same time period, LARA said, the state saw the number of prescribers, pharmacists and others registered in the Michigan Automated Prescription System more than double to 68,000 from 29,000.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer says the automated system “has played a critical role in both combatting the opioid epidemic here in Michigan and in ensuring patients who need prescription drugs have access to them.”
Justices: Proof needed that person knew he couldn’t have gun
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court says prosecutors must prove that people charged with violating federal gun laws knew they were not allowed to have a weapon.
The government says the decision could affect thousands of prosecutions of convicted criminals who are barred from having a gun.
The court ruled 7-2 Friday in the case of a foreign student from the United Arab Emirates who took target practice at a Florida shooting range even though he had stopped attending classes and was in the United States illegally.
He was prosecuted under a law that bars people who are in the country illegally from having guns. Prosecutors never proved he knew he couldn’t have a gun.
The same law is also a tool to keep guns away from convicted criminals.
Former Maine governor has a new job — tending bar
BOOTHBAY HARBOR, Maine (AP) — Former Republican Gov. Paul LePage’s wife won’t be the only one in their family spending the summer working at a restaurant. LePage will be joining her as a bartender.
McSeagulls Restaurant owner Jeff Stoddard said he hasn’t finalized the former governor’s schedule but expects him to be tending bar for the entire summer in Boothbay Harbor.
The governor’s wife, Ann, will be working there again as a server.
The restaurant posted photos on social media showing the former governor and first lady wearing McSeagulls t-shirts that proclaimed, “Eat, Drink & Flounder, Just for the Halibut.”
