Drug-related overdose cases are increasing at an alarming rate across the United States. From the heroin epidemic to the fentanyl crisis, communities are experiencing the deadly effects of illicit drugs. Unfortunately, criminals that often supply the drugs that cause the overdoses, often evade prosecution.One of the primary challenges for law enforcement officers assigned to conduct overdose death investigations is the lack of cooperation from witnesses and/or the victim if he or she is not deceased. As a result, the cases are rarely prosecuted.Successful overdose death investigations rely on a comprehensive strategy to target all those responsible for the death. Using conspiracy laws as well as homicide laws, investigators across the United States have had success in bringing justice for the families of the victims.This training course is designed to equip law enforcement officers with the tools necessary to successfully conduct and prosecute and drug-related overdose cases.
