In four months, Georgia law enforcement agencies have seen the same number of opiate fentanyl deaths as they did all last year. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation issued a release about 17 deaths attributed to a drug labeled U-47700 and furanyl fentanyl, a drug 100 times stronger than morphine. One case this year happened in Hall County and is being investigated by the GBI region office.
