Trump Wants Drug Dealers to Receive the Death Penalty
During yesterday’s White House Summit on Opioids President Donald Trump made a severe statement by saying that the drug dealers of America should endure “the ultimate penalty” for their part in drug related deaths. Trump also supports the suing of pharmaceutical companies and opioid manufacturers in the local level, saying “I mean, what they’re doing and the way — the distribution. And you have people that go to the hospital with a broken arm, and they come out and they’re addicted. They’re addicted to painkillers, and they don’t even know what happened. They go in for something minor, and they come out and they’re in serious shape.”

The Cost of An Addiction
Heroin has a cost, and it’s not always monetary. For Kim Jones it was her career, her family, her 401(k) and even her class ring. “Nothing was sacred,” the Middletown mother of three recalled. “I thought, ‘This is going to be the way that I die.’ … To me, that sounded like the better option for my family because if I was dead, then they didn’t have to worry about where I was or what I was doing.”
