“She made one mistake," Vaughn said."But because fentanyl is so deadly, that mistake cost her her life.”
Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, announced Monday that he will soon introduce legislation aimed at combating the nation’s worsening fentanyl crisis, including providing additional support to programs that raise awareness about the drug's dangers. He also called on President Joe Biden and the federal government to do more to combat the trafficking of drugs across the southern border into the U.S.
"I never imagined something like this could happen to my family," said Astudillo, whose 14-year-old son, Jose Alberto Perez, died of a fentanyl overdose."My son was more than a statistic, he wasn’t just a number among the thousands that have died from this drug. He was a precious soul, he was a human being full of life and dreams."Daniella Silva / NBC News
