TIARA VIAN: This is KJZZ, your news and information station in Phoenix and across Arizona. I'm Tiara Vian, and here are this week's stories you don't want to miss.

TIARA VIAN: This is the podcast that's designed to catch you up on some highlights from around the region. Thanks so much for listening. Here are a few of the stories for the week of April 13, 2026.

TIARA VIAN: In water news, the Colorado River is running dry and the federal government has proposed big cuts to the amount of water that flows to Arizona. Those cuts will hit some parts of the Valley harder and sooner than others. Alex Hager went to see how one town is adapting.

ALEX HAGER: On the outer edges of the Phoenix metro, you'll find Cave Creek. It’s a town of about 5,000 people, where saguaros dot the hills above quiet neighborhoods. When it comes to water, about 95% of this town's supply comes from one source.

ALEX HAGER: It's a baking hot spring day on the banks of the Central Arizona Project, where blue-green water travels slowly through a wide concrete canal. Here, three pumps are humming away, taking Colorado River water from the canal and sending it north to Cave Creek.

SHAWN KREUZWIESNER: These booster pumps are what's providing almost all the water for the town.

ALEX HAGER: Shawn Kreuzwiesner runs the utilities department in Cave Creek. Right now, that is not an easy job because federal water managers are proposing cuts to the amount that flows into this canal, and Cave Creek doesn't really pull water from anywhere else.

SHAWN KREUZWIESNER: It is stressful, and the other agencies I've worked for in the Valley have had the luxury of that more diverse water portfolio. So, us trying to figure this out—I hate to use the term, but—we're sort of the sharp end of the stick, or the spear, here. We're the first ones who's going to feel the impact, as Cave Creek.

ALEX HAGER: Adding to that anxiety, Shawn Kreuzwiesner says the exact size of those cuts is not set in stone.

SHAWN KREUZWIESNER: We don't have clarity, and that is stressful going into this. And part of the unknown is, how bad is the cut going to be next year?

ALEX HAGER: Those cuts could take away 20, 25, or even 59% of the town's water. So now, there's a scramble to find more, fast. Brad Hill says the options are limited.

BRAD HILL: That's the goal for Cave Creek, is it needs water in the canal, because that's the only way we can get water to it.

ALEX HAGER: Brad Hill is a water consultant Cave Creek brought on to help search for more supply.

BRAD HILL: Any deal that we do or any solution, water supply solution, has to be water in the canal, or it doesn't work for Cave Creek.

ALEX HAGER: Brad Hill says over the years, the town has been taking some of its excess water and storing it underground. But due to a quirk of geology, it has to store that water far away, and it would be too complicated and too expensive to pipe it directly to Cave Creek. But Brad Hill has a plan.

BRAD HILL: What it's called in the business is an exchange.

ALEX HAGER: He says other cities will take some of Cave Creek's underground water and leave the same amount of canal water where Cave Creek can get it. Those other cities were pretty eager to offer their help. Max Wilson is with one of them, the City of Phoenix.

MAX WILSON: I think anything that undermines the confidence that the nation has in sustainable lives here in the Valley would be negative for all of us who live here.

ALEX HAGER: For bigger cities like Phoenix, Surprise, and Peoria, they're basically worried that people will hear about one little town in the Phoenix area running out of water and think that the whole Valley is going dry. Maybe then, they'll stop moving here and spending their money here.

MAX WILSON: Everybody when they move to Arizona, the first question they get from their family is, "Are they going to run out of water?" We need to make sure that doesn't happen, we need to make sure that's not true.

ALEX HAGER: City leaders say they got a taste of that phenomenon in 2023, when taps ran dry in the small community of Rio Verde Foothills.

KATHRYN SORENSEN: Even if one small part of the Valley of the Sun experiences problems, you know, everyone is going to get stuck with that same label.

ALEX HAGER: Kathryn Sorensen is with the Kyl Center for Water Policy at Arizona State University. She says what happened in Rio Verde Foothills was an outlier. But that didn't matter to people outside of the state.

KATHRYN SORENSEN: That could be bad news for our economy. So, I think that there is a very sound reason for all of us to hold hands and help each other weather this storm.

ALEX HAGER: This storm probably won't go away anytime soon. Climate change and decades of drought will likely keep things dry throughout the region, forcing cities that rely on the Colorado River to get creative, even the ones that are less reliant on its water. But in Cave Creek, water consultant Brad Hill says the focus will soon turn beyond the exchanges that can carry them through the short term.

BRAD HILL: If that surface water goes away, you know, we have five to eight years’ worth of alternatives, but we need a long-term solution by then.

ALEX HAGER: Brad Hill says all the cheap, easy water in the area has already been taken, and the next steps for Cave Creek and other cities in a pinch will be difficult and expensive. Alex Hager, KJZZ news, Cave Creek.

TIARA VIAN: In other news, Congress has spent months negotiating the future of funding for the Department of Homeland Security after Border Patrol and ICE agents killed two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis. Those shootings sparked a national conversation about body cameras for federal immigration agents and what the government owes the public after serious use-of-force incidents. Alisa Reznick reports.

ALISA REZNICK: It's been more than two months since Border Patrol agents shot and killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Cellphone footage viewed around the country shows the 38-year-old ICU nurse being shoved to the ground and surrounded by agents before gunshots ring out.

PROTESTER: Minnesota called, and we answer!

ALISA REZNICK: It was the second fatal shooting of a U.S. citizen by immigration agents this year. Those deaths and DHS's response to them sparked nationwide protests, including here in Arizona.

PROTESTER: We are demanding justice for Keith Porter Jr., Renee Good, Alex Pretti and all victims!

ALISA REZNICK: They also contributed to the partial government shutdown in February, after Congress failed to agree on DHS reforms and greenlight funding.

BENNIE THOMPSON: I just want to know how many cameras, right now, do you have on your agents?

ALISA REZNICK: During a hearing that month, Democratic Congressman Bennie Thompson of Mississippi asked Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott about body cameras.

RODNEY SCOTT: When you say agents, Border Patrol agents, there's about 10,000.

BENNIE THOMPSON: 10,000 out of how many?

RODNEY SCOTT: Out of 20,000 Border Patrol agents.

ALISA REZNICK: Requiring body cameras for Border Patrol and ICE agents has become a central demand made by Democrats during funding negotiations in Congress. But that effort isn't new.

DAN HERMAN: They officially launched the program in 2021, but CBP had already been moving toward adopting body-worn cameras.

ALISA REZNICK: Dan Herman is a researcher at the Center for American Progress, who served as a senior accountability advisor for CBP under President Biden. He says plans to equip Border Patrol agents with cameras began during the first Trump administration.

DAN HERMAN: You know, it was not seen as a political program.

ALISA REZNICK: Dan Herman says efforts to release body cam footage kicked off after Biden's 2022 executive order requiring cameras for all federal law enforcement and a new database of officer misconduct. By 2023, DHS said 7,000 Border Patrol agents had been equipped with cameras.

NARRATOR: A portion of this incident was captured on an agent's body-worn camera.

ALISA REZNICK: Edited footage and descriptions of use-of-force incidents began appearing on CBP's website that spring.

NARRATOR: The following video provides information regarding a U.S. Border Patrol agent involved shooting on March 14 ...

ALISA REZNICK: The first video was of a smuggling incident south of Tucson, where a Border Patrol agent fatally shot a man through his car window as he attempted to flee the scene.

NARRATOR: That footage is being released today in compliance ...

ALISA REZNICK: The webpage is still active today, but nothing's been added since last May. Dan Herman says it's not clear what happened.

DAN HERMAN: Is this neglect? Is this a lack of staffing? Right? You need people on the back end to do these things. Is this a deliberate effort to sort of torpedo it? We don't know. Right? And I think that that kind of requires Congress, you know, to kind of do its job and demand answers.

ALISA REZNICK: CBP and DHS did not respond to questions about whether the footage release program is still in effect. But during another February hearing, CBP's Rodney Scott told senators with the Homeland Security Committee that multiple agencies were still reviewing evidence from the Preddy shooting, including body camera footage.

RODNEY SCOTT: I can't jump to a conclusion in either direction. I would ask America to do the same thing. But I am committed to transparency, to making sure all the information we have is made public when it's appropriate.

ALISA REZNICK: To date, none of the footage from that shooting has been released, and the agency didn't respond to questions about whether it would. Katherine Hawkins, with the watchdog group Project on Government Oversight, says the footage program wasn't perfect. Families with loved ones killed by immigration agents struggled to obtain the unedited footage, and agents’ cameras weren't always turned on. Still...

CATHERINE HAWKINS: You don't want to see reforms rolled back, and there's also a worry that beyond the body camera footage release being rolled back, that it might be a bit of a canary in the coal mine.

ALISA REZNICK: Katherine Hawkins says other Biden-era initiatives, like a requirement for use-of-force incidents to be investigated by an oversight body, are also now at risk.

CATHERINE HAWKINS: You know, it's not enough to say, "Oh well, they have to wear body cameras." You have to actually see the footage, or it doesn't really amount to much.

ALISA REZNICK: That question came up back in January when, just after the Minneapolis shootings, an alleged smuggler was shot and wounded by Border Patrol agents along a remote desert highway outside Tucson. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told reporters his department was handling the investigation into Border Patrol's use of force. As for whether agents were wearing cameras...

CHRIS NANOS: We're looking at all of that right now. I don't—I don't know that. I know there's video. Where it came from, I don't know.

ALISA REZNICK: This month, a spokesperson with the Sheriff's Department didn't release details about their review of the incident, but said investigators had viewed the body camera video available. That footage, they said, was back in custody of the Border Patrol. Alisa Reznick, KJZZ News, Tucson.

TIARA VIAN: In politics news, Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk, the widow of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, is planning a visit to a Paradise Valley high school next week. Bridget Dowd reports.

BRIDGET DOWD: In a letter to parents on Tuesday, Pinnacle High School principal Jeremy Richards said Erika Kirk would be a guest speaker during a student club meeting on April 24. He said Erika Kirk would be sharing her personal journey and life experiences with Club America during the lunch period. The gathering is strictly for club members and their one invited guest and not open to the general student body. Jeremy Richards said the school will have an increased security presence on campus during the meeting. He added that under the Federal Equal Access Act and a state statute, student groups have the right to invite speakers and engage in activities that align with their interests. Bridget Dowd, KJZZ news, Phoenix.

TIARA VIAN: In education news, former first lady Rosalynn Carter once said there are four kinds of people in the world. Those who have been caregivers, those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers. As Kathy Ritchie reports, there might be five: caregivers who help other caregivers.

KATHY RITCHIE: Bud Addison is sitting at the kitchen table in his West Phoenix home. Bud is flipping through a workbook filled with word searches. Bud has Alzheimer's disease. Next to him is Emily Jane Crawford, a pre-med student at Arizona State University. Emily Jane Crawford is part of a new collaboration between Hospice of the Valley and ASU called RISE, as in Respite and Student Engagement. It’s a paid gig for Emily Jane Crawford, at $20 an hour, and a lifesaver for Mary Addison, Bud's wife of 30 years.

MARY ADDISON: And it's very hard, because you have a person that you know what your husband is supposed to be like, and he is deteriorating quite fast.

KATHY RITCHIE: And Mary Addison needs help. For Bud Addison, Alzheimer's is more than just memory loss. It affects nearly every part of his life.

MARY ADDISON: It's hard for me to get him to eat regular food. He loves ice cream, so he can go through four half-gallons of ice cream and three loaves of bread in a week. And he doesn't—he can't drive.

KATHY RITCHIE: Evenings can be especially heartbreaking. Bud Addison will tell Mary Addison he wants to go back to his childhood home.

MARY ADDISON: His mother's passed away, his father's passed away, and a brother's passed away, and he doesn't quite understand that. It's like, "I want to go home, my mom's there, they're going to come and get me."

KATHY RITCHIE: Mary Addison wants to keep Bud Addison here at home as long as possible, but she also needs a break.

MARY ADDISON: I find myself sometimes getting — I want to say, "I don't like you anymore." Because that's — you know, I'm just — he's just runs me into the ground sometimes.

KATHY RITCHIE: Dr. Gillian Hamilton is a professor of practice at ASU and the medical director of Hospice of the Valley's Supportive Care for Dementia program. RISE is her brainchild.

GILLIAN HAMILTON: I think you know the data that caregivers often die before the person living with dementia, due to the incredible stress of that task.

KATHY RITCHIE: And family and friends often fall away, leaving that caregiver mostly on their own. So a program like this one is filling a much-needed gap. Caregivers are getting respite and students are getting real-life dementia experience. Noor Hassan is Gillian Hamilton's student and the RISE student coordinator. Her job is, in part, to play matchmaker.

NOOR HASSAN: Right now, I think we're at 31 official matches between families and students.

KATHY RITCHIE: And like any good match, it's about chemistry, finding someone who connects with both the person living with dementia and their care partner. For Bud and Mary Addison, that someone is Emily Jane Crawford.

MARY ADDISON: When I say Emily's coming, he's very happy about that. Like I said, he goes to the door and greets her, and they immediately start their activities, and he just loves that.

KATHY RITCHIE: There are clear boundaries. Emily Jane Crawford doesn't provide personal care like bathing or toileting, and the money part is handled directly between the student and the family, explains Noor Hassan.

NOOR HASSAN: Our goal is just companionship and caregiver respite, giving them the chance to step away while their person has socialization.

KATHY RITCHIE: At least until Emily Jane Crawford graduates next spring, which Mary Addison knows is inevitable.

MARY ADDISON: Well, when Emily graduates, hopefully there's someone else that's going to follow in her steps. I know I'll never replace Emily as the person that Emily is.

KATHY RITCHIE: Like any new program, its future may come down to the data, which Noor Hassan is working on as part of her honors thesis.

NOOR HASSAN: I've taken an early peek at the results, and one of the questions I ask is, "Could you see yourself doing this in the future?" And it's so dramatically "yes" from the students.

KATHY RITCHIE: Which she says is really cool because there aren't enough dementia providers in the state. Dr. Jillian Hamilton says there are six-to-nine-month waiting lists for neurologists who specialize in dementia, and there are only about 115 practicing geriatricians in the entire state.

GILLIAN HAMILTON: There are obviously not enough geriatricians, but we don't need that. We need to educate our primary care providers about how to diagnose and manage dementia. It's not that complicated, but everybody's afraid to do it.

KATHY RITCHIE: So Gillian Hamilton is leading a separate grant to do that. And later this year, Noor Hassan will defend her thesis and hopefully demonstrate that a program like this one is worth modeling elsewhere. For Mary Addison, though, the results are clear: a few hours of help, a familiar face at the door, and just enough time to catch her breath so she can keep showing up for Bud Addison.

TIARA VIAN: In business news, APS will no longer disconnect customers' power when temperatures exceed 95 degrees, following a settlement with the Attorney General's office. Katherine Davis-Young reports.

KATHERINE DAVIS-YOUNG: The settlement comes after the heat-related death of an 82-year-old APS customer whose power was cut because of unpaid bills. APS already pauses disconnections from June through mid-October for heat safety. But Attorney General Kris Mayes notes climate change is prolonging Arizona's dangerous heat season, and this customer's death occurred in May. Kris Mayes says she wants other utilities in the state to also pause disconnections based on temperature, not date.

KRIS MAYES: And if somebody dies on their watch with a date-based policy, we're coming after them, too.

KATHERINE DAVIS-YOUNG: As part of the settlement, APS also agreed to add to its notification process for past-due bills and expand its financial assistance program for customers. Catherine Davis Young, KJZZ News, Phoenix.

TIARA VIAN: And this is the Stories You Don't Want to Miss podcast. In Fronteras news, local officials in Flagstaff say ICE is now leasing office space at an industrial building within city limits. From the Fronteras desk, Alisa Reznick reports.

ALISA REZNICK: Officials with the City and the Flagstaff Police Department say ICE has confirmed a lease agreement for two suites at an office complex in the city's Westside. The officials say they're trying to get more information about the scope and nature of activities planned there, but so far have not received requests from ICE to use city property. Eva Putzova is with the immigrant advocacy group Keep Flagstaff Together.

EVA PUTZOVA: And our current concern is that ICE will be detaining people there, and that they will not care about the conditions in which they will be holding people in.

ALISA REZNICK: ICE didn't respond to questions about its plans for the site. Earlier this month, the Department of Homeland Security put out a call for vendors to provide office space in multiple U.S. cities, including eight in Arizona. Alisa Reznick, KJZZ News, Tucson.

TIARA VIAN: And finally, in original productions, excessive marijuana consumption can be a nuclear bomb to mental health. The Show's co-host, Sam Dingman, has a deeper look.

SAM DINGMAN: The widespread availability of potent, legal marijuana is a relatively recent phenomenon. Many people have come to rely on it for help with managing stress, insomnia, chronic pain. Plenty of others use it purely for recreational purposes. And legal marijuana continues to provide a firehose of tax revenue for the state, over $200 million a year since 2022.

SAM DINGMAN: But some medical professionals and industry observers are starting to notice a troubling trend among heavy cannabis users: marijuana-induced psychosis. Firm statistics aren't yet available, but doctors are reporting upticks in people developing serious mental health conditions that seem to be associated with excessive marijuana consumption. And our next guest has encountered some of these situations directly.

SAM DINGMAN: Josh Mozell is a lawyer who works in the mental health field; he started his career in behavioral health as a caseworker for people with serious mental illness. Currently, he represents both hospitals and families of mental illness patients, and lately he's been hearing a lot of concerning cases of marijuana-induced psychosis. Josh Mozell came by the studio to talk to the show's executive producer, Amy Silverman, and me more about this.

JOSH MOZELL: We're getting people that are, you know, 35, married, kids, job, normal life, and out of nowhere, they're very psychotic in an intense way that never happened before. So, I'm getting all kinds of cases of this untraditional psychosis.

SAM DINGMAN: Can you tell us what traditional psychosis looks like in terms of when it presents and how it presents?

JOSH MOZELL: Yeah, so the traditional course is mid-to-late 18s, you're in high school, you got your friends’ group, you're doing well, you're getting good grades, and all of a sudden things start to change. You pull away from your friends’ group. Your grades start to diminish. You start to act bizarrely. You separate from your family. Typically, these things do not come up past, you know, your mid-20s.

AMY SILVERMAN: But often aren't there indicators earlier that nobody picked up on or that were kind of buried?

JOSH MOZELL: There are outliers. But I think anytime that there is an outlier, you have to start to look at other things because there's lots of things that cause psychosis. In my practice, again, I was like, these are unusual and super intense incidents of psychosis. Like a, you know, 36-year-old Marine, served for eight years, mechanical engineer, doing super well, married, all of a sudden out of nowhere, he believes that he's being sexually assaulted every night. He then buys a ticket to go fight the Taliban.

JOSH MOZELL: And so, you look back and what is he doing? He's vaping. When people were growing up 30, 40 years ago, marijuana had 2-to-3% THC. Now you can vape at 80, 90% THC, and it is dangerous. It's kind of a nuclear bomb that went off in mental health when we allowed it to be so prevalent and then really no governance on the amount of THC that goes into these, quote-unquote, "marijuana products."

SAM DINGMAN: When you started to see these cases coming in, of people like you were just describing, the Marine, what made you think to ask about their marijuana usage?

JOSH MOZELL: I had worked in the mental health system, so I, you know, had dealt with hundreds and hundreds of people on my caseload that have these disorders. And part of working in the system is you understand their background. People would come in and it's so unusual.

JOSH MOZELL: I mean, a few weeks ago, a 60-year-old woman, been married 28 years, she's a CEO, she's an executive, got kids, and all of a sudden she goes from her mansion in Paradise Valley to living in the homeless shelter. That is so unusual. And so then you talk to the families—what's going on? Is there a medical condition? Did she travel out of the country and get some infection? Every time, every single time, it was this connection to dabbing or vaping of marijuana.

JOSH MOZELL: And if you look online now, five years ago, four years ago, it was kind of hard to find the links, but now it's very discussed because it's happening so much.

AMY SILVERMAN: Didn't you tell me there was a study out of Denmark?

JOSH MOZELL: Yeah, there's a study out of Denmark that was done in the summer of 2021 that showed if you smoke marijuana and you have that paranoid feeling, that's a low-level psychosis. And so what the study said is a third of people have that feeling. Of that cohort, if you use high concentration THC, what they said is 47% of the people that use high concentration THC are developing bipolar or schizophrenia.

JOSH MOZELL: And part of it is that you get super delusional that you believe that the FBI is following you everywhere and that the CIA is after—and so you don't trust anybody, including your kids and your spouse, and so you don't want treatment.

AMY SILVERMAN: Is it dangerous to give someone the anti-psychotic medication if it's marijuana-induced psychosis?

JOSH MOZELL: When it comes to the—the marijuana-induced psychosis, that's kind of the treatment course. And again, if they can get in and get that treatment and bring down the psychosis, then it works well. And I—I wouldn't say that it's dangerous, and I would say it's probably the right thing to be doing.

JOSH MOZELL: The danger, though, I feel like, is that you go in and you get a diagnosis of some psychotic disorder, and therefore—and lots of these people get pulled into an involuntary process that then forces them for a year to receive this treatment. That's where the danger lies. Because the medication brings you down, that's good, that's not dangerous. But should you be on it for 365 days? No, no, we need to do testing, we need to understand these things in between and pull somebody off of that medication if they don't need it.

AMY SILVERMAN: What if you're still using the high concentrations of marijuana?

JOSH MOZELL: Oh, you got—you got no chance. Every family I talk to, the first thing we have to do—because we can get the person pulled in, get treatment in a variety of ways, but they're locked up right in a hospital. And what I'm pleading with the family about is do—we have to do everything in our power to keep them away from these substances, and if we don't, nothing works.

JOSH MOZELL: You know, we've had really good results getting the person in the hospital, bringing the psychosis down, they get back into life; they use a little bit and they're just as psychotic.

SAM DINGMAN: How common was in the casework you've done on people who are in that cohort, like between 15 and 25, where these breaks start to present themselves, how common was THC use in those cases?

JOSH MOZELL: That group, I think, there's lots of comorbidities. There's lots of people that are using substances to deal with their—their symptoms. Most of those that the families that I dealt with and when I was an SMI case manager, marijuana wasn't the—the drug that they were getting to—to, you know, treat their symptoms. They were using other substances out on the street—other illicit substances, alcohol, lots of times meth.

SAM DINGMAN: How similar is like a THC-induced psychosis to psilocybin or LSD or something like that?

JOSH MOZELL: That trip is — is pretty contained within the six-to-eight hours, and you come out of it and you're done. What I see with marijuana-induced psychosis or THC-induced psychosis is an intensity that's like going from zero to 60. Like — like going out and — and spending through — I talked about the woman who had been married for 30 years and kids, you know, she went out and spent $200,000 within a couple of days. People's entire lives are pulled apart.

SAM DINGMAN: I hear what you're saying that if somebody does a psilocybin trip or ketamine or any of these other things, there is a very intense effect while the drug is in the system, but once it's out, generally speaking, it seems like the person sort of goes back to their default state. But in the cases you're talking about, presumably the psychosis is extending past the point where the body has metabolized the THC?

JOSH MOZELL: It absolutely is. And what I have found is that they're not coming down right afterwards. I mean, we send them to the hospital and they get held at a hospital for a month, but they can still be—you know, so clearly they're not—they're not using the substance, but a month later, two months later, even when they come out, they have these low-level psychotic system—symptoms. So there's something else going on.

JOSH MOZELL: My point is there is so much risk in using these things and nobody knows it. The number of people I know that are just vaping this stuff at 70, 80, 90% THC is wild. Everywhere you go, and nobody knows that there's this danger.

SAM DINGMAN: Josh Mozell is an attorney who represents hospitals and the families of people with mental illness.
