NORTH RICHLAND HILLS (CBSNewsTexas.com) — It has been more than a year since Shannon Chapman lost her 22-year-old daughter, Bailey, to fentanyl.

A-soon-to-be released documentary called “Fentanyl Unlimited” is also trying to bring more attention to the drug through profiling Texas victims, and taking a critical look at how lapses at the Texas/Mexico border are allowing fentanyl to enter the US.
“The drug cartels from Mexico, I mean they control the border,” said documentary director Charlie Minn. “Let’s get real about this. To me, there is no border. It’s so loose, just about anybody can get in sneak in.”
Minn agrees with these families that too many people are unaware of the risks fentanyl poses to unsuspecting young people.
“We need more social programs, we need more education, we need more fentanyl awareness,” he said. “We need Narcan to be possessed by just about everyone.”
The documentary “Fentanyl Unlimited” plays at Look Cinema on Northwest Highway in Dallas on Wednesday, Oct. 18 at 7 p.m. For more info, click here.
