Today's conversation is extremely important for parents to hear as we talk about how young people are being targeted by drug cartels with deadly fake prescription pills. Clare Kramer is joined by Wendy Woolcock, the special agent in charge of the special operations division at the DEA and returning guest, Amy McCarthy, Clinical Social Worker at Boston Children's Hospital. Wendy explains the messaging and rising death toll behind the One Pill Can Kill initiative and how Mexican drug cartels are literally making a killing off fentanyl-laced pills. Wendy, Amy and Claire share how parents can protect their children and the importance of educating them about the fact that one pill can kill! IN THIS EPISODE: [00:45] The initiative behind One Pill Can Kill and the growing fentanyl epidemic [02:46] What is a lethal amount of fentanyl and why is fentanyl the new drug of choice [07:51] The process that these fake pills are being manufactured [12:33] What do these pills look like [14:33] What can parents do to protect their children and how to have this awkward conversations with your kid KEY TAKEAWAYS: We have seen two milligrams of fentanyl alone in one of these fake pills is a deadly dose of fentanyl and can kill an individual. That amount is equivalent to several pieces of salt or sugar on the end of a pencil tip. That means a very, very small amount can be lethal, hence, the statement one pill can kill. The DEA has found that along with the CDC that four out of 10 pills can contain a lethal dose of fentanyl. Last year, the CDC stated around 108,000 people died as a result of an unintentional overdose death. This is not simply a law enforcement problem, and it is definitely not a law enforcement solution. It is a unified effort that needs to be taken on by parents, schools, and leaders in our communities. And we have to educate children about this serious threat.

In this episode of FBI Retired Case File Review, retired agents Joe Wolfinger and Chris Kerr review their investigation of the evidence used in 2003, to charge 78-year-old, veteran FBI Agent Paul Rico in the high-profile, 22-year-old murder of Roger Wheeler, a prominent Tulsa, Oklahoma businessman. Rico died in jail before a trial or even a preliminary hearing was ever held. Joe Wolfinger and Chris Kerr had never met Paul Rico. After reviewing pertinent documents, they determined that there was no credible evidence that Rico conspired to commit murder.
