Despite the state’s remoteness and rural character, heroin dealers made their way to Wyoming to distribute their deadly wares. A bag of heroin can be sold for far more in Wyoming than in Salt Lake City, making the region irresistible to someone who does not care about the loss of life that might result from each sale.
By and large, Wyoming families are not prepared to protect their children from this newly-arrived threat. This makes it vital that schools and community groups reach parents and youth to warn them of the threat posed by heroin and prescription drugs.
