Jun 24, 2017 02:17 PMI heard on the news last week that heroin is being cut with fentinol. And the fentinol is 50 - 75% stronger then it used to be so therefore causing overdoses.

Jun 26, 2017 08:44 AMI hate heroin. My cousin is 27 and in the throes of heroin addiction. She has relapsed and now lost custody of her 15 month old son, whom she gave birth to while incarcerated... The father is her dealer, who has since been locked up... It's all so ugly. I just can't imagine what drives a person to even experiment with something so widely known as a devil's drug. Breaks my heart for the families of these individuals, who are helpless to save the ones they love. It's a desperation without words.
