Big Pharma Billionaire Arrested, Charged With...

[Mystic Wanderer]

Fentanyl is a very dangerous drug, and it has also been showing up mixed with cocaine. People are dying!  Three deaths in Tennessee recently, and more in other states.

The TBI said Friday that for the first time, its lab has had a cocaine submission that tested positive for fentanyl.
There was one cocaine sample in Nashville and there were two in Knoxville.

The deadly drug is a powerful, narcotic painkiller. According to the TBI, fentanyl had primarily been identified in samples of heroin or in clandestine pills compounded to resemble legitimate prescription opioids.

Law enforcement across the country have started to see an uptick in cocaine as a whole, according to Tommy Farmer who works with the TBI Drug Investigation Division.

Farmer said if someone uses cocaine with fentanyl one time, they could die. However, he said there have been no deaths, as far as they are aware, that are related to the samples of cocaine that tested positive for fentanyl in Tennessee.

Some doses of fentanyl can be 50 to 100 times as potent as morphine. The drug can absorb through the skin so even touching it can put a person at risk.
