KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — Authorities have made a fourth arrest in connection with a black-market business for THC-vape manufacturing in Wisconsin.

A 20-year-old woman is being held in the Kenosha County Jail on possible charges of manufacturing or delivering marijuana. But, officials haven’t said yet what role the woman may have had in the business.

Forty-three-year-old Courtney Huffhines, her sons, 23-year-old Jacob Huffhines and 20-year-old Tyler Huffhines, have already been accused of operating a large THC-vaping business in southeast Wisconsin.

Courtney Huffhines’ attorney, Robert Keller, says she will plead not guilty to the six felony charges against her, including the one accusing her of manufacturing or delivering THC. She was released on $100,000 bond after appearing in court on Tuesday.

Hundreds of illnesses nationwide have been linked to vaping, but authorities haven’t singled out a product as the culprit.
