People who knowingly peddle illicit fentanyl, who knowingly cut it into or substitute it for street or party drugs, or knowingly press it into counterfeit fake pills. They know that their deceitful products can and will kill.
Imagine buying a pill online, thinking it's a harmless painkiller, only to discover it’s a deadly counterfeit. That’s exactly what happened to Zach, who purchased what he believed was a Percocet on SnapChat. Instead, it was laced with a lethal dose of fentanyl, ending his life in an instant. In this gripping episode of 'Fatal Facts of Fentanyl', Zach's parents share their heart-wrenching story of loss and their mission to raise awareness about the dangers of counterfeit pills.
They candidly discuss how the drug landscape has changed since their own youth, and the devastating impact of this shift on unsuspecting families. This episode isn’t just about Zach; it’s a wake-up call for all parents and young people to understand the hidden dangers lurking in seemingly innocent pills. The podcast underscores the urgent need for public health awareness and a coordinated national response to tackle the fentanyl crisis.
With poignant personal stories and expert insights, listeners are invited to join a growing coalition of voices demanding change. This episode is not only a tribute to Zach but also a powerful call-to-action to prevent future tragedies.
