    These type of stories are so sad. It is important to understand that when dealing with illegal substances you run the risk of dealing with people who are involved in illegal activity. It sounds simple but most people as well as myself have not thought of that. People doing illegal things really cannot be trusted. There are too many people willing to do that illegal activity to make it safe. It is only getting worse as drug use is semi-legitimized in some western cultures. Political power pushes to make people happy no matter what and it usually ends badly.

      If the risk of imprisonment is the same regardless of a person's actions, then their actions become less trustworthy and more immoral. We need drug reform to legalize the safer drugs and promote them, and strictly enforce the harder drugs.

    This is heartbreaking to hear. There is ZERO chance to stop the flow of drugs as long as there is a demand for them. So the only solution, however crazy it may seem, is these drug dealers have either got to start testing their product for fentanyl or get life sentences and/or the death penalty for selling product that will kill their customers. The parents are right, this was not an overdose, it’s at the very least manslaughter.

    Very sad. The loss of Julia is a huge loss for those who knew and loved her.
    I assume she used cocaine regularly, a shame that she felt the need to use illegal drugs that apparently are easily/readily available. I didn't know in NYC that you could just order cocaine deliveries-why is that? why aren't drug dealers in prison?
    I'm so sorry for these parents & all parents of young people dying from illegal drug use.
    I sincerely hope my grandchildren don't grow up and want to "try" an illegal drug, I pray for them daily.
    It is very good that this one drug dealer has been punished, that doesn't bring Julia back but may save the life of another person.
    Our Nation really needs to figure out a solution that works, instead of just keeping statistics on how many die from illegal drug use.

    • @controlledopposition4037
      @controlledopposition4037 Місяць тому

      Alcohol is just as problematic as cocaine. Problem here is that the drugs were poisoned. Also that people get away with putting very dangerous chemicals in cocaine. Btw the opioid epidemic is the result of legal prescription drugs. Educate yourself please.

    • @louisegoins7630
      @louisegoins7630 Місяць тому

      @controlledopposition4037 I know alcohol is a drug which slowly kills those who use it daily, also claims the lives of people who don't use it by drunks behind the wheel. However alcohol isn't usually mixed with other substances and sold illegally on the streets. And cocaine by itself damages heart and other organs. I'm also aware the opioid prescription drugs have created many drug addicts and that was corrected yet did nothing for the addicts the doctors who had over prescribed opioids had created.
      But this young woman is dead because she purchased cocaine cut/laced with fentanyl. Which is why my comment only addressed that issue.
      Another topic you might find interesting is that China still supplies most of our prescription drugs. Combining that fact along with knowing fentanyl used in illegal substances originated in China (even when mixed in Mexico) should be of concern to everyone who gives their child an antibiotic to people who take daily hypertension prescribed medication. Check into that, since you want to discuss other topics anyway. I think about that as I think it makes nearly all Americans vulnerable to taking a prescription drug that could contain fentanyl on a mass scale one day.
