Overdoses continue to rise

Posted

In his report to legislators at Thursday’s Public Safety and Law Enforcement Committee meeting, County Coroner Albee Bockman (pictured) said their office was dispatched to 25 deaths in the month of May, 12 of which required post mortem examination. “I’m glad you’re all sitting down,” Bockman continued, revealing as he does each month, how many of the deaths in the County were attributed to the opioid crisis. That number, for the month of May, was seven, representing approximately 30 percent of all County deaths. “It just does not stop,” said Bockman.
