DEA Failed to Stop Huge Opioid Shipments, Senator Says
U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) says the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration failed to hold major drug distributors accountable as prescription opioids poured into Missouri from 2012 to 2017. Three firms shipped 1.6 billion doses of opioids during those years, the equivalent of 260 doses for each resident.
