In Episode 232, I welcome Angela Marie Parkerson who shares the life and death of her son Nick Rucker who died by fentanyl poisoning at 24.
Nick is survived by his mother Angela Marie, brother Brandon and sisters Courtney and Hannah. He is also loved and missed by his seven nephews and one niece.
Nick was a lover of nature and enjoyed the mountains and hiking.
He was murdered in Kentucky and, unfortunately, it has been an uphill battle to gain justice for him.
To build awareness of the fentanyl crisis, Angela Marie created The Never Alone Nick Rucker Foundation, Inc. Please visit here - https://www.neveralonenick.org/ to learn more.

#fentanyl #opioids #ccp
In Episode 231, I invited Andrea Thomas, mother of Ashley who died of fentanyl poisoning, creator of Fentanyl Prevention and Awareness Day, each August 21st and of Facing Fentanyl to join me once again. We discuss the findings of the China Select Committee on April 16th in the House of Representatives in DC and share the confirmation that the CCP is intentionally manufacturing fentanyl and shipping it through Mexico into the US killing 76,000 of our children in 2022.
For perspective, according to National Archives, between 1955-1975, over 58,220 men and women were killed in the Vietnam War - a 20 year period.
According to the FBI Crime Data Explorer, in 2022 covering 75% of the US population, 15,047 homicides were recorded by law enforcement agencies.
It is estimated that in 2023 more than 100,000 young people in the US were killed by fentanyl in counterfeit pills or added to marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and other drugs with either partial or complete fentanyl.
Pills that resemble Xanax, Oxycotin, Adderall, Percocet and others are killing our young people within minutes because all these are counterfeit pills and that person has no idea what is in them.
Please, please educate yourself and your family. Fentanyl is now the leading cause of death among 18-45 year olds.
