About this listen
In this episode, PSM's Executive Director, Shabbir Imber Safdar, CFE, sits down with Sheriff Dorsey, who brings more than 25 years of law enforcement experience, for a candid conversation about one of the greatest public safety threats facing America today: the rise of fentanyl and the explosion of illegal pill presses.
The Sheriff also includes stories from undercover members of his team, who describe two recent incidents in their work: one where they followed a pill press from a U.S. border port of entry all the way to their county, and another where they were cataloging evidence at a drug lab and a shipment of methamphetamine showed up through a common express carrier.
Sheriff Dorsey outlines how drug trafficking networks exploit vulnerable communities, and what his team is doing to stop them. Sheriff Dorsey also reflects on the human cost of the opioid epidemic, emphasizing the need for community support, prevention efforts, and better resources for substance abuse treatment.
From large-scale pill press seizures to the challenge of shutting down drug supply routes, this episode offers a ground-level view of what it takes to keep communities safe in the midst of a national crisis.
