Unmasking the DEA's Struggles: Joe Rannazzisi's Inside Story on Opioid Control Failures

It kind of staggers the imagination to suggest that distributors did not know what was going on. They sent like million tablets of oxy to a single pharmacy in Hudson Florida, and that was roughly a Six-Month supply for each of Hudson's residents.
Ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes in the fight against the opioid crisis? In this gripping episode of Cover2 Resources, hosts Greg McNeil and Pat Beal sit down with Joe Rannazzisi, the former head of the Office of Diversion Control for the DEA. Rannazzisi offers a raw and unfiltered account of how diversion controls meant to curb 'opioid dumping' in West Virginia failed spectacularly.
He delves into the friction between the DEA and the DOJ, which led to a breakdown in their ability to protect the public from suspicious opioid shipments. This episode also covers the controversial Ensuring Patient Access and Effective Enforcement Act and its impact on opioid distribution. With staggering revelations like the massive amounts of opioids sent to a single pharmacy in Hudson, Florida, Rannazzisi's insights are a wake-up call for everyone involved in this battle.
Tune in to understand the complexities and failures in the system and why vigilance is more crucial than ever.
