Fame & Fentanyl

Fame & Fentanyl, a 2-hour documentary special, provides an unflinching look at the horrific toll fentanyl has taken on US society and culture. From high-profile celebrities to everyday families in the suburbs, cities, and along the US border, the deadly substance’s impact is profound and has devastated many. When Prince died of a fentanyl overdose in 2016, few had even heard of the drug but now, reports of fentanyl overdoses are in the news almost daily. Hosted by Ice T, this special is a deep dive into stories of those including Prince, Angus Cloud, Tom Petty, Michael K. Williams, and more. Interviews with experts and special agents provide unprecedented insight into the criminal investigations to find out how law enforcement brought dealers to justice after selling lethal doses of fentanyl to their victims.
