The Office of the Coos County Attomey has continued to work diligently
to prosecute opioid/methamphetamine crimes in CoOs County. Drug
overdose deaths in Coos County in 2024, all athibutable to fentanyl or
methamphetamine use, continued to move down from the number of deaths
in 2023, with 5 fatalities from drug overdose occurring in 2024 as of
the time of writing. Nine lives were lost to those controlled drugs in
Cods County in 2023, whlle in2022 there were a staggering 24 deaths
that occurred from drug overdose. While one death from drug overdose
is too many, I am pleased with the downward trend and the significant
reduction in these tragic outcomes. I believe that this reduction in
drug-related fatalities is the result of the steadfast enforcement
efforts that have been made in CoOs County. We have worked closely
with our federal, state, and local law enforcement partrer agencies to
address this epidemic.
