LOS ANGELES—Law enforcement officials on May 9 announced a dozen new federal cases targeting fentanyl dealers who—in all but one case—allegedly sold fentanyl and fake pills containing fentanyl that directly resulted in the death of at least one victim.
The 12th case charges a person who allegedly distributed fentanyl to teenage girls who suffered overdoses and required hospitalization, said Thom Mrozek of the United States Attorney’s Office.
