00:10 Recent overdoses are shining a spotlight on the trouble with opioids in the Central Valley,

00:15 especially among teenagers.

00:17 And these days, fentanyl is front and center.

00:20 The reason why a lot of people haven't heard of it is because it's not typically prescribed as a pill.

00:26 These aren't being produced in United States laboratories.

00:29 They're coming in from all over the world, predominantly our southern border through Mexico.

00:33 It only takes one time. It's not something that you ever want to try, ever.

00:39 And it's like playing Russian roulette. You don't know what you're getting. Good luck.

00:44 911, state your emergency.

00:46 Got two people that are, looks like they're OD'd.

01:17 Fentanyl pills don't care about what color your skin is, how much money you make, where you live.

01:23 It's an equal opportunity destructor, in a sense.

01:26 This isn't just another drug.

01:30 You're not just going to wake up with a sick-to-your-stomach feeling or a hangover.

01:35 You're not going to wake up. That's the difference.
