SUMMARY: A Rockwall man, Joshua Javier Menar, is in federal custody for ordering Glock switches, which convert pistols into fully automatic weapons, from China. Investigators intercepted 35 packages labeled as household items but contained these illegal devices, leading to Menar's arrest on June 20th. This crackdown is part of “Operation Kill Switch” launched by the ATF and US Attorney's Office. Additionally, 19-year-old Jian White was arrested for possession of a machine gun and faces a murder charge. These cases highlight concerns over growing illegal Glock switch usage, which poses significant risks comparable to fentanyl in law enforcement crises.

In the Rockwall case, the suspect bought packages from China that appeared to just be filled with household items. In the Dallas case, the ATF says a known gang member murdered someone with a Glock switch modification.

SUMMARY: Back in March, Shiron Robinson underwent a veneer procedure at Forever Veneers, an unlicensed Houston clinic, which cost him $8,700. Misled by their Instagram page boasting 54,000 followers and seemingly satisfied clients, Robinson flew from Rhode Island for the procedure. Post-treatment, he experienced severe issues including trouble chewing, open pockets in his gums, and a veneer coming off. It was revealed that Jaden Moror, who performed the procedure, lacked a dentistry license and now faces felony charges. Robinson continues to face significant dental problems and financial strain, seeking further dental care while cautioning others against misleading social media advertisements.
