Reports of Fentanyl-Laced Marijuana by Police, be Skeptical
On November 15, 2021, a Connecticut Public Health Alert cited from the Connecticut Overdose Response Strategy and the Department of Health reported a "lab-confirmed" case of fentanyl-laced weed. However, there are many reasons to be skeptical of this report, and even more reasons to be warry of fearful drug information released by police.
There is a long history of law enforcement claiming drug dealers are lacing weed with fentanyl, but evidence for this has always been limited and anecdotal, used to justify an ongoing war on drugs.
