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.

SUMMARY: Percy Payne started his new job at Central Texas Gunworks in South Austin on Monday. Last week, Payne, a security guard, was attacked by two teens while working in East Austin. After attempting to detain them, Payne's supervisor reprimanded him, leading to his resignation. Following the incident, Michael Cargill, the owner of Central Texas Gunworks, offered Payne a job on the spot. Payne now focuses on gun sales and customer service, and will also get certified as a level three security officer. The incident is under investigation by both his former employer, Prieb Security, and the Austin Police.
