| Summary |
A report on fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that has seen a rise in popularity in the U.S. and that experts say is responsible for the recent rise in U.S. overdose deaths. Fentanyl is largely produced in Chinese labs and shipped to the U.S. through the postal service. One particularly profitable drug ring, Gordon Jin, boasts that it ships fentanyl to 5 continents and all 50 states. Includes interviews with James Raugh, whose son overdosed; Matt Cronin and Justin Herdman, U.S. attorneys; Senator Rob Portman (R-OH); and half of the team posing as Gordon Jin |
