        Its called addiction. Considering she was going through 80 bags a day....she may be in a better place and now hopefully her family is too.

        One cannot catch a heroin addiction without first doing heroin, which is illegal, and for good reason.

        drug abuse ends up messing up with your heartbeat and it can also cause dehydration...so maybe it is bc of the fact thatthey might not have given her enough food or water

        No one has any empathy if it’s not their own family or their own problem. I’m so tired of people being so quick to judge. Addiction is a disease and requires treatment. If you think she shouldn’t have done heroin then shut the hell up and just be glad it’s not ur kid who died.

        I'm so sorry for the family of this girl. Money will not bring her back and its a pathetic bandaid on a gaping wound! I hope the officers and officials who were responsible for what happened never forget her! 😪😪

        Yes actually, it is. Do you understand the opioid epidemic? Do you know that heroin used to be OTC? Did you know Big Pharma found a way to make it palpable again? Did you realized they offered push incentives? No you’re a moron, sorry I forgot.
