HIGHS IN THE 60s.
I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT NEXT
WEEK LOOKS LIKE GOING INTO

ALARMING STORY OUT OF CLARK

INSIDE. THEY SENT THESE PHOTOS OF THE
CANDY.
CANDY.
CANDY. >>
CANDY. >> HURTING A CHILD IS ONE OF
THE WORST THINGS YOU CAN DO.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.
>> NO DOUBT IT IS A HEAD
SCRATCHER AND IT IS NOT THE
FIRST CASE WE HEARD OF IN OUR
AREA JUST LAST WEEK A PARENT IN
NORTH PLAINS DOWN WHAT LOOKS
LIKE A CHEWABLE ADVIL TABLET
AND SWEETHEARTS HER DAUGHTER
GOT WHILE TRICK-OR-TREATING AND
LAST YEAR SOME PARENTS DUG INTO
THEIR KIDS HALLOWEEN CANDY AND
GOT SICK AFTER EATING SOME
METHAMPHETAMINE LACED SOUR
PATCH KIDS.

UNFORTUNATELY IT IS NO LONGER
UNBELIEVABLE.>> DAVID MOTIONS
HE HOPES POLICE WHENEVER
WHOEVER'S AND INJURE THE KIDS
IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND DEVON
THOMAS DOES AS WELL.
>> I HOPE THE PERSON IS CAUGHT
AND JUSTICE WILL GIVE THEM WHAT
THEY DESERVE.

ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION THOMAS IS
TRASHING ALL THE CANDY HER KIDS
BROUGHT HOME LAST WEEK.
>> IF ANYTHING HAPPENED TO THEM
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO
AND THEY ARE MY BABIES AND I
WOULD BE SO ANGRY.
>> THERE IS LEGITIMATE FEAR
THAT BAG CANDY COULD BE
FLOATING AROUND THE
NEIGHBORHOOD POLICE ARE ASKING
PARENTS TO LOOK VERY CLOSELY
THEY CANDY THEIR KIDS ARE
HOLDING ONTO AND IF ANY OF IT
LOOKS SUSPICIOUS OR YOU KNOW
SOMETHING ABOUT THE CASE PICK
UP THE PHONE AND CALL POLICE

AND HE HEARD ABOUT HIM TALK
ABOUT LAST YEAR SCARE OF
HALLOWEEN CANDY, THERE WERE A
CHEWABLE ADVIL TABLET AND
SWEETHEARTS THE DAUGHTER GOT
WHILE TRICK-OR-TREATING AND
PART OF THAT CONCERN IS THE
BILL COULD'VE BEEN SOMETHING
ELSE.
ELSE.
ELSE. CASE IN POINT DOCTORS AND US A
BATCH OF COUNTERFEIT PAIN PILLS
WERE SEIZED IN THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST AND THEY WERE
SMUGGLED IN FROM MEXICO.
TESTING FOUND 27% OF THE PILLS
HAD POTENTIALLY LETHAL DOSES OF
THE SYNTHETIC OPIOID FENTANYL
AND JUST 2 MG OF IT CAN BE
DEADLY.
DEADLY.
DEADLY. >> IT IS SIGNIFICANT THAT THERE
IS SUCH A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF
HIGH POTENCY FENTANYL BEING
BROUGHT INTO THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST.>> IT IS DIFFICULT TO
TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A
COUNTERFEIT AND REAL PILL SO
PEOPLE MAY END UP TAKING A
HIGHER DOSE THAN THEY
ANTICIPATED.
ANTICIPATED. >> FENTANYL HAS FLOODED
OREGON'S BLACK MARKET IN RECENT
YEARS AND FENTANYL DEATHS
INCREASED FROM 10 IN 2013 TO 73
FIVE YEARS LATER

THE INITIATIVE. >> WE WILL FILE LITIGATION TO
FIGHT THESE DEVASTATING IMPACTS

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
UNCONSTITUTIONAL. >> OPPONENTS SAY THE INITIATIVE
COULD COST STATE AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AS MUCH AS $4
BILLION THE NEXT FEW YEARS AND
THEY SAY A PUT SOMEONE AT RISK

LEAST UNTIL DECEMBER 5 AND THAT
IS THE EARLIEST THE FEES COULD
DROP TO $30.
