Law enforcement officials are warning parents about a recent trend of drug cartels disguising the deadly drug fentanyl as candy, such as Nerds and Skittles. The powerful synthetic opioid is also being used in counterfeit pills which drug dealers then market as prescription medications such as Oxycodone, Xanax, and Percocet.
The fake pills are impossible to tell from real ones.
Drug traffickers utilize social media to gain access to adolescents and teens.
