Three in one hour? In close proximity to each other? Must be some bad junk on the streets there. Or some a-hole isn't cutting his dope by the formula. On the other side though, with three dopers down for the count burglaries and thefts will probably drop for a week or two.

There's bad junk going around. Have had 2-3 spates of this in different towns throughout the Bluegrass / NKY area this month.

Not uncommon, some regional level dealers do it intentionally. They will make 2-3 baggies straight fentanyl. The people overdose and die, word gets out this dealer has a batch of crazy high quality stuff, so high quality that it killed a few people. All of a sudden, this dealers product becomes very desirable and sells well.

Not exactly the classic marketing ploy........"kill some customers, make more money"..........only in the doper world would that work. Or in the federal government.

Yeah, usually having a product that kills people is bad for business, unless you make military weaponry.

Mt. Sterling had seven in one hour a couple of weeks ago. All lived but one.

Good that six lived. Now to figure a way to get away from the stuff.

This is why I am such a huge proponent of harm reduction strategies. You can't be an ex-junkie if you are a dead junkie. Opiates are one of the hardest addictions to kick. I read somewhere that, most users relapse between 8 and 12 times before kicking it for good.

A story I love to reference about a former junkie who sends out Naloxone (reverses opiate overdose) to anyone who can't get it themselves:
