Local New Events Relating to Substance Abuse in Shelton, CT

The United States Attorney's Office District of Connecticut recently announced the 66-month prison sentencing of a Shelton man for his role in a local drug trafficking organization and operation. According to reports, the FBI's Bridgeport Safe Streets Task Force began investigating multiple individuals who were distributing narcotics throughout the Shelton and Bridgeport area.

Wiretaps and surveillance efforts eventually revealed the Shelton man and his brother led a local drug trafficking organization that was responsible for distributing large amounts of crack cocaine, fentanyl, and heroin throughout the community. Following his arrest, the Shelton man plead guilty to conspiracy to distribute, possession with intent to distribute, and three counts of possession with intent to distribute heroin. His brother was also arrested and sentenced to 25 years in prison.

Laws and Regulations Relating to Substance Abuse in Shelton, CT

In 2021, the Connecticut Legislature enacted Public Act 21-108 to create new opioid overdose response training requirements for local law enforcement. Under this new law, all law enforcement officers are now required to be trained in using opioid antagonists, such as Narcan. In the event an officer encounters an individual in the midst of an opioid overdose, these opioid antagonists can be used to immediately treat and reverse the deadly side effects.

Under Public Act 21-108, police departments across the state will also be required to acquire and maintain an ongoing supply of these opioid antagonists to ensure officers have constant accessibility to emergency medication. With spiking numbers of overdoses being seen across the state in recent years, officials hope that increasing police accessibility to these resources can help prompt more effective and quicker emergency responses.

The testing center did not follow protocol on the first attempt. The second attempt went very smooth. Thank you.
