Law Enforcement Crackdown, too!

More than 500 charged in largest drug bust in Kentucky history

According to Kentucky State Police Commissioner Rodney Brewer, 877 deaths in Kentucky last year were caused by prescription drug overdoses. Last week, an inter-agency drug task force conducted the largest drug sweep operation in Kentucky’s history. A total of 518 felony arrest warrants were issued, resulting in the arrest of 322 people over two days in 34 Kentucky counties. Two hundred others were arrested in other states.

“With the renewed cooperation between law enforcement at the local, state and federal level, we will shut down the pain pill pipeline between Kentucky and Florida.” …after the state started an electronic prescription monitoring program, many residents migrated to other states, particularly South Florida, to obtain multiple prescriptions from pain clinics. They then returned and sold the pills, she said.

Sure thing and no doubt, FDA will not allow half-dozen or more companies to bring generic “original receipt” OxyToxin on the market. And with the ease that “extra crunchy” OxyToxin can be abused (pulverizing, extracting, heating) a good monitoring program will soon condemn it, too (if it ever gets a provisional approval).
