North Carolina is taking a hard stance against drug dealers caught selling drugs that are directly linked to fatal overdoses, particularly those linked to fentanyl.
Last year, Chatham County Sheriff Capitan Ronnie Miller was proud to announce that a local Cary man was being charged with the death of a Chapel Hill man who overdosed and had fentanyl, heroin, and cocaine in his system upon passing. The official name for this charge is “death by distribution,” and this was the second time Chatham County used it.
Sheriff Miller said they anticipate many more drug dealers will face charges in the coming months and years, showing their commitment to ridding the area of these deadly drugs and the people who supply them.
