Fentanyl is a synthetic opiate used as a surgical anesthetic or as a narcotic to treat chronic and severe pain. It is most commonly used in cancer patients; however, over the last couple of years it has been blamed for the death of thousands of Americans. Many law enforcement officers are not aware of these risks and the results can be deadly. Day one of this course will focus on breaking down Fentanyl as well as the latest trends in packaging and distribution. An emphasis will be placed on how to protect yourself from accidental exposure and possible overdose. On Day two, the investigative techniques and best practices for undercover operations and/or controlled buys will be discussed in detail.
