SANTA ANA, Calif.—While the state legislature is looking for a solution to the growing threat of fentanyl-related deaths plaguing Californians, Orange County officials and law enforcement have joined together to prevent the synthetic opioid from crossing county lines.
The Orange County Board of Supervisors unanimously passed a resolution on Jan. 25 to join forces with law enforcement agencies in getting a handle on the prevailing fentanyl crisis, after the state senate’s Public Safety Committee struck down in January a bipartisan bill that would increase sentencing for fentanyl dealers.
