Candy-colored fentanyl concerns St. Lucie County sheriff
Florida Attorney General issues warning of new deadly drugs

FORT PIERCE, Fla. — As students head to college for the fall
semester, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody on Monday warned
about a deadly drug flooding the black market.

Fentanyl is now being found in what looks like bright, rainbow-
colored candy that could be enticing to younger people.

Deputies in St. Lucie County are now starting to watch for it
showing up in our area.

Sheriff Ken Mascara said the drug looks similar to sweet tarts,
and that this is a perfect example of how drug dealers are looking
for new ways to compete for new clients.

. . .

They DO look just like candy. Younger kids especially
would be likely to grab a handful and bite down. With
fentanyl that'd be certain death - even IF they quickly
spit out the bits. Actually fentanyl is so strong they
could disguise the taste with sugary sweet-tart goo.

The cartels are gonna do a lot of business. I wonder
if Hunter gets a kickback ? China sells and profits,
the cartels get free access over the border and
profit. SEEMS like there might be a SYSTEM here,
some mutual back-scratching .......
