The San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors at a meeting Tuesday unanimously approved the first-ever fentanyl strike team for the District Attorney's Office to combat fentanyl issues within the county.
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 50 to 100 times stronger than heroin or the opioid morphine, which is typically used to treat severe pain, according to San Joaquin County Public Health Services.
Freitas said that the new unit will provide early intervention by having rallies at high schools and an ongoing public information campaign, investigations of overdoses in order to identify"hot spots," and cooperate with local, state and federal task forces to prosecute major traffickers. Freitas said 982,000 doses or pills of fentanyl were seized in the county in 2022 that weighed over 20 pounds.
