Fentanyl-Laced Heroin is Everywhere in Nashville – How to Check for Fentanyl-Laced Heroin
If you or someone you know lives in Nashville and is using heroin, this is a must-read article.
The number of heroin overdoses has spiked recently due to Fentanyl-laced heroin that is flooding the streets of Nashville. Making matters worse for heroin users is the fact that many heroin dealers are bragging about the number of overdoses and near-fatalities related to their brand, since it entices users who are looking for the ultimate high.
Many dealers are quick to tell you “they’ve had X number of overdoses”, only to make users believe their brand is stronger than their competitor’s brand. Some heroin users find this bragging attractive, believing that they can either use less heroin to save money, or worse, get even more high. Some Nashville heroin users are simply looking for the “maximum hit”, which makes this cocktail very scary.
According to an anonymous source: “Heroin in Nashville is some of the best in the country due to the amount of cash flowing on the streets. There’s no shortage of supply either. Heroin in Nashville is high-quality, and it’s everywhere. Heroin is easier to find than roxy, subs, or anything else. Oh, and it’s cheap as hell.”
