Voters in Keego Harbor made marijuana legal for adults. It was among many key proposals that passed in Tuesday's election across metro Detroit.

The marijuana proposals -- legalizing the "usage, possession and transfer" of an ounce or less of cannabis by anyone 21 or older, and only within a private non-public space such as a house -- passed with 260 votes, or 55%, with 210 voters opposed, or 45%.

A Michigan attorney is asserting that prosecutors forced state criminal activity laboratories to change the way THC is reported in tests. According to Michigan Live, lawyer Michael Komorn declares that scientists were instructed to report an unknown origin for THC consisted of in edibles, wax and oil.

Under this technique, the THC would be reported as a synthetic compound instead of marijuana, which is a two-year felony.

LAMOTTE TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Members of the Sanilac County Drug Task Force discovered more than 355 pounds of dried marijuana plants and plant remnants and 10.5 pounds of processed marijuana during an investigation in Lamotte Township on Tuesday.

The task force served a search warrant at a resident in the north 2000 block of Lamton Road as part of an investigation into an illegal grow and processing of marijuana.

A 66-year-old man, a 44-year-old man, and an 18-year-old woman who live at the houe were questioned but have not been charged.

Battle is on for control of Michigan's marijuana market

Illinois isn’t the first state in the Midwest to allow medical marijuana. Minnesota and Michigan have active cannabis programs for patients, while other nearby states are considering legislation. Some states allow children with seizures to be treated with cannabidiol oil, or CBD, a marijuana extract.

Here’s a look at where Illinois’ neighbor states stand:

- Wisconsin: Allows possession of non-psychoactive CBD oil to treat seizure disorder. Legislation to allow adults to use marijuana for recreational or medical reasons has been introduced, but it is unlikely to pass the Republican-controlled Legislature.

OTTAWA COUNTY, MI – An attorney claims prosecutors pressured state police crime labs to change the way THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, is reported in an effort to circumvent Michigan's medical marijuana law.

Michael Komorn alleges scientists were told to report an unknown origin for THC contained in oil, wax or perhaps a brownie if no visible plant material was present. The THC would then be declared a synthetic substance rather than marijuana – turning a misdemeanor pot charge to a two-year felony.

Concerned Detroiters spoke out against medical marijuana shops at a public hearing Thursday night and pleaded with city officials to implement new regulations to stifle the industry's growth.

"There's some way we have to control it because this is like an invasion," longtime Detroit resident Nancy Bitzarakis said at the hearing.

Bitzarakis was among several residents who spoke at the city Planning Commission's hearing at a near-capacity city hall auditorium, with most supporting a crackdown on the marijuana dispensaries. Residents described an ever-increasing number of dispensaries opening up near their neighborhoods, inviting undesirable activities -- people smoking joints in parking lots, for example -- and an atmosphere damaging to children.

The Detroit City Planning Commission is holding a public hearing on proposed medical marijuana zoning regulations at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center, 2 Woodward Ave.

The planning commission could vote at the meeting to recommend approval of the ordinance by the Detroit City Council at a future meeting.

OTTAWA COUNTY, Mich. – The defense representing a Spring Lake father facing a felony marijuana charge is accusing Michigan State Police Forensic Science Division crime labs of misreporting marijuana intentionally. It’s an allegation with statewide implications.

FOX 17 first reported Max Lorincz’s case in February: he’s a father and medical marijuana card carrying patient. He was charged with felony possession of synthetic Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) for having a smear amount of butane hash oil (BHO).

TRAVERSE CITY — A Traverse Narcotics Team search of a burned Garfield Township barn harvested 95 marijuana plants.

Or 75 plants.

A police report generated after the July warrant search yielded both tallies, and the difference could be important if three Garfield Township residents — Fredric John York Sr., 56, Karyn Marie York, 50, and Fredric John York Jr., 27 — try to fight felony manufacture of marijuana charges.

PORTAGE, Mich. (WOOD)– On Nov. 3, Portage voters will decide if they want to be the next city  to decriminalize small amounts of marijuana.

The charter amendment on the ballot reads:

Shall the Charter of the City of Portage, Michigan, be amended by adding a new Section 5.14 to Chapter 5, entitled “Marijuana,” to state that: “Nothing in the Code of Ordinances shall apply to the use, possession or transfer of less than 1 ounce of marijuana, on private property not used by the public, or transportation of 1 ounce or less of marijuana, by a person who has attained the age of 21 years?”
