Georgia approves limited medical marijuna production…
A Georgia board overseeing the state’s efforts to get patients access to medical marijuana has approved production licenses for two companies, a step to getting patients access to medication after a seven-year wait.
UPDATE: The Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission awards 2 licenses for in-state production of low THC oil. Companies have 1 year to be operational.

In a year-long investigation, WABE followed Ms. Peaches in her fight for decent housing at the blighted Forest Cove apartments. Soon after the series, the city launched a relocation effort.
Months later, Ms. Peaches is finally in her new housing.
