‘Tranq’ Mixed with Fentanyl in Phoenix

VIDEO – EVEN IN ARIZONA –

Feb. 28, 2024 – “It’s so scary, like we’re actually carrying triage kits. I mean, it sounds crazy, but we’re trying to carry some bandages we’re carrying gauze tape. If you could see the wounds, I can actually send you some pictures of wounds that are happening. They’re massive. They’re deep. They’re expansive,” said Bevell. Bevell, who runs outreach to homeless across the Valley, said that users will not go to the hospital since they are afraid their belongings will be stolen on the streets, leading to a vicious cycle of addiction through self-medication.

“It’s immense pain but ‘the blues,’ the fentanyl, the opioids are painkillers. So the reason this is continuing to exponentially grow is the fact that they’re using these medications that mask that. So even though they’re in intense pain, they have a cure. They’re self medicating so they’re using it to help,” said Bevell. “Not only that, but the tranquilizer can impact the body’s ability to heal.”
