Pills seized inside Prince's Paisley Park estate were labeled hydrocodone but actually contained fentanyl, the drug that killed the singer. Fentanyl is 50 times more potent that heroine and up to 100 times more potent than morphine!
It is unclear how Prince obtained the drugs, as records show Prince had no prescription for any controlled substances in the state of Minnesota, in the 12 months leading up to his death. Fentanyl has been partly responsible for a recent surge in overdoes deaths in some parts of the United States. ?It seems more and more likely that Prince became a casualty of what is being called a new national crisis of deadly counterfeit pills? says The Minneapolis Star Tribune. The burning question remains. How did Prince acquire the drug?
