Jack O'Kelley is a stand-out athlete throughout his youth and into high school, where he letters all four years in Lacrosse and football.  He's also a member of the National English Honor Society.

Thanksgiving morning, Jack's family gets ready to celebrate the holiday, his dad calls Jack to come home. No answer. He calls the family friends where Jack spent the night. The parents invite Jack's father to come over, the boys are still asleep.   So he drives over and a few minutes later, the dad calls his wife in a panic.   Jack is dead.

An autopsy finds that Jack had overdosed.  Mother Angela King thinks her son, Jack O'Kelley, swallowed what he believed was a Xanax pill, not knowing it is counterfeit and contained a deadly amount of Fentanyl.

This is just one of multiple tragic stories involving fentanyl.
