Addiction: Death In Disguise

10/14/2018

Last week's episode of The Coroner: I Speak for the Dead raised awareness around a topic ravaging our nation. I will see more deaths this year from opioids than from all the accidents and homicides combined.

Has addiction touched your life or your family? What do YOU think can be done? Please comment below; it will help me as I research this topic, which has become a personal mission.

Make no mistake, this WAS a homicide, with the recovering addict as the victim.

Thanks as always for your support.

So this may seem like an odd request but I just got done watching a show where you use bullet trajectory and my friend Eric Byrd was murdered in Harrisburg PA.. January 7th 2016 or 2015. It is an unsolved case. He is my boyfriends brother and we are from Baltimore MD. Eric Byrd drove with some friends from Baltimore Md to Harrisburg PA where he was shot and killed around 9am and left for dead in an alley. Some of the rumors are they went there that morning to steal drugs other rumors are that his friends drove him up there to kill him. His mothers heart is broken and think she just wants to know the truth about what happened to her son. I would think the way the bullets hit his body would tell you if it came from house they tried to rob verse friends walking in an alley shooting at close range and running back to there car to drive back to Baltimore Md. I have read the medical report but it just seems confusing to me although I'm sure if it were my brother I would read it over and over with a dictionary next to me until I understood it all. Hope you can help!

Addicts desperately need recovery and rehabs that aren’t religion based, they need understanding. No one uses drugs for no reason, providing counseling for the reason of the drug use is just as important as addiction counseling.

I just found your channel as I watch your live with Carmen Strider. I applaud you and any other corners who are trying to get the truth out there. I was addicted to methamphetamines and opiates for 17 yrs. I lost everything I ever loved, including myself and my own sanity. I will say it is possible for people to recover but it is not easy. My personal opinion is that if you don't deal with the spiritual reasons behind the addiction, there's very little chance that you're going to get sober and even less chance you will stay sober. You have to go in and heal the traumas, break the generational curses, and cry out to God with true repentance and desire to live for Him. I had a truly miraculous deliverance from drugs. I had gone from being on hydrocodone for 14 years, sometimes taking up to 90 10 mg pills a day just to stay well, to being on Suboxone for 7 years. As I'm sure you know Suboxone is even harder to get off of his the other stuff especially being on it for that long. I went to a Deliverance minister and the spirit of addiction was cast out of me and I did not suffer any withdrawals from the opiates. Not even a queasy stomach or a bit of diarrhea. Only God can do that.
