## Resource

A 32-year-old man from Tickfaw, Devin Bess, just got a 13-year sentence for fentanyl distribution after pleading guilty in April 2024. Authorities seized 16.9 grams—enough for 120 doses—and the DA’s office hailed it as a victory in the battle against deadly drug trafficking, targeting dealers preying on vulnerable communities. This conviction underscores the escalating crackdown on fentanyl and the human cost of addiction. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
