on the street. That’s not an overdose, that is poisoning. I also found out that in Oregon there<br />

were no laws in place that would allow for the conviction of the drug dealer my son found on<br />

Snapchat. It’s not illegal to use drugs in your state <strong>and</strong> of course, there was a person of<br />

interest, but no proof (Snapchat is a whole other issue), with no laws equal to a conviction.<br />

The person that sold the tainted pill, that poisoned <strong>and</strong> killed my child is free to do as they<br />

please. I would say it’s safe to assume more people died because of that individual. That<br />

person didn’t just poison my son that day, he killed all the hopes <strong>and</strong> dreams that we had for<br />

our only child. We will never know what his future could have been, we will never be<br />

gr<strong>and</strong>parents, our Jac is gone from us forever.<br />

That dealer <strong>and</strong> the criminal element that he was a part of didn’t just kill my son, they<br />

devastated <strong>and</strong> destroyed our families <strong>and</strong> friends. Yes, my son made a deadly mistake that<br />

day, one that he can’t come back from. A mistake that is made every day by people of all<br />

walks of life. Education <strong>and</strong> laws need to be in place to raise awareness <strong>and</strong> hold those<br />

people killing our children accountable for their actions. 200 plus a day are dying from fentanyl<br />

poisoning, that’s a reported fact. We cared more about Covid responses than we do about a<br />

factual number of individuals dying from fentanyl poisoning. Help me underst<strong>and</strong> why?<br />

The only thing that is keeping me somewhat sane in the years since losing my son is being a<br />

part of the grassroot efforts along with other parents who have suffered the same loss in<br />

raising awareness of the dangers of fentanyl.<br />

I am asking for your help in assisting us with finding a permanent location for a <strong>Dr</strong>ug Epidemic<br />

Memorial Wall within our Capitol. We have created two memorial walls, one with photos, <strong>and</strong><br />

one with names. I am including Jacob’s frame, below. These digital walls <strong>and</strong> albums update<br />

automatically. We would also like the photos displayed in hard copy format. The wall of names<br />

can be projected onto a wall so families can touch their loved one's name. We would like our<br />

loved ones to be treated like victims as none of them deserved to die this way by being<br />

unknowingly poisoned.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Andrea Garver<br />
