As they're cutting all kinds of drugs with fentanyl, there's no way of knowing how it got him if he was taking multiple drugs.

Exactly my point. To say he died from fent-laced pharmaceutical copies is a specious. There’s no way of knowing. He very well could’ve had a legit fentanyl patch prescribed to him.

Sure, but so what? Doesn't make taking any pill these days safer.

We’re on the same side here. But if you’re going to write something in the first sentence of your first paragraph about two beloved musical heroes who died of ODs, and claim it’s b/c of fent-laced fake pills, I’m going to call BS on that because no one knows the details. I don’t want misinformation spread.

Opioids are bad.
