new study shows children are dying of fentanyl poisoning faster than any other age group.

Many of these deaths are children of drug users who are accidentally exposing their kids.

“It’s really just a numb feeling,” said Leo’s paternal aunt Lexis Staub. “It still feels unreal. We’re just trying to get justice for Leo. This should never happen.”
