Mysterious death in the forest: money, cannabis and doubts about Björn Wenner!
Gabriel Faber was discovered dead under mysterious circumstances in a remote cabin, surrounded by a significant amount of cash and marijuana. This reports ZDF. Faber, a former father, was reportedly suffering from terminal pancreatic cancer, which may explain his decision to retreat into seclusion. His family doctor, Dr. Thomas Kimmich, confirmed that the marijuana found was of medical origin.
The circumstances of his death raise many questions. Faber was isolated from his family, including his ex-wife Ellen Faber, for a long time. She apparently didn't know that Gabriel was back in Wismar, while her new partner Björn Wenner, who informed the police as a witness, says he never saw him. However, the investigation suggests that Wenner may know more than he is letting on. Rumors are circulating about a possible crime to prevent Ellen from returning to Gabriel.
Medical cannabis: An important therapeutic approach
The use of cannabis has changed in recent years. From April 1, 2024, cannabis will no longer be listed in the Narcotics Act (BtMG), but will be subject to the new Medical Cannabis Act (MedCanG). This regulates medical use, especially for cancer patients, who often rely on specially prescribed cannabis. The prescription is strictly regulated and is carried out by licensed doctors on regular medication prescriptions, such as CannaTree reported.
It is also important that cannabis medicines may only be prescribed for serious illnesses when conventional therapies are not sufficient. The medical cannabis found on Gabriel Faber could have been a type of therapy to relieve the pain of a serious illness.
Reactions to legalization and its effects
The legalization of cannabis consumption a year ago caused waves across Germany. Critics feared an increase in consumption, which is confirmed by initial studies in municipal wastewater. How daily news reported, there was a slight increase in carboxy-THC levels measured in municipal wastewater. While these values remained stable in the summer of 2023, they increased in February 2024, close to the entry into force of the new laws. Another challenge is the increase in cannabis addiction cases in addiction clinics.
One goal of legalization was to combat the black market, but the reality appears to be different. High requirements for cultivation clubs and the ongoing surplus of illegal sales outlets mean that the legal market has not yet been stabilized. While it is legal to take up to 25 grams of cannabis for personal use, the legal framework for users remains complicated.
Gabriel Faber's tragic fate and the discussion about medical cannabis show how complex the issue surrounding cannabis and its use is. It remains to be hoped that future developments can both clarify the legal framework and help the people affected.
