Description

On this episode of The Rundown: 

Police and the district attorney in Franklin County turn property seized in a cannabis bust into millions in revenue; how are they spending it? We’ll unpack the details.

And lead from old phone lines found in manhole sediment has electrical workers and others concerned about health and environmental impacts. We’ll dig into what’s known.

Plus, many nursing homes in the Berkshires are spending less than 10 dollars a day per resident on food. Why is it happening and what can be done about it? 

We’re running down all of that and more this week with our panel: Dusty Christensen, investigative editor for The Shoestring; Springfield Republican Investigations Editor Greta Jochem, Western Mass Politics & Insight Editor-In-Chief Matt Szafranski; and Mike Dobbs of FOCUS Springfield.
