Families from across the state shared their experiences about resources needed to save lives from fentanyl poisoning, and to find ways to prevent future fentanyl deaths.
SALT LAKE CITY — Law enforcement officials from the DEA's Rocky Mountain Field Division, the Utah Attorney General's Office, and the Utah U.S. Attorney's office hosted a Family Summit to hear from those who have lost someone to fentanyl poisoning.
“We appreciate all the families that joined us today to share their story and honor their loved ones. It is these tough conversations that help us, as law enforcement, better understand what we can do with our resources to save lives,” said Acting Special Agent in Charge David Olesky of the DEA Rocky Mountain Field Division.
Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes also shared his appreciation of his office's partnership with the DEA and the need to prevent fentanyl from ever entering the state.
