We Are Allowing Drug Dealers To Become Serial Killers, With Matt Capelouto Tactical Recovery
-
- Health & Fitness
My next guest lost his daughter Alexandra to a fentanyl poisoning in 2019. Since that time, he has taken up the fight to keep others from becoming victims to this epidemic. Matt Capelouto has issued the warning that, "The spike in fentanyl-related deaths should be treated as a national security threat!"
His daughter was attending Arizona State University and battling with the stressors of college life and being on her own for the first time. During Christmas break, Alexandra reached out to an individual on Snapchat while seeking relief for insomnia and depression and was dealt a counterfeit drug that was laced with fentanyl. Matt said, "I want it to be clear, my daughter didn't die from an overdose. She was poisoned."
This entire situation was just a tragedy of epic proportions. The man who sold the counterfeit pill is currently standing trial in the Federal Court System for murder. So many lives destroyed by this one careless act.
Matt is working to pass the Alexandra's Law, and advance legislation to help mimic the current DUI laws in California. A dealer would be hit with a warning following the first offense. If a subsequence offense occurred and a person died from the distribution of fentanyl, that subject would be subjected to murder charges.
Please follow Matt and his cause on Facebook and join the fight in your community and make sure you join the #take10movement on Facebook.
