If his mother allows it. IMOI hope that Cam’s husband has the decency to provide a burial.

Thank you for sharing! I am not familiar with Texas terminology and protocols surrounding fentanyl deaths, so I appreciate the info on this.If I may, I'd like to say that when a person dies from Fentanyl it is no longer considered an overdose in Texas. It is referred to as Fentanyl poisoning, which is what causes the person to die.
There are what is called "pressed" pills that look just like a prescription Xanax or Hydrocodone for example. These pressed pills are coming from Mexico across the Texas border and killing thousands of people a day in our nation. That's the ad campaign being used across Texas - ONE PILL CAN KILL
to further bring awareness to never take a prescription pill from anyone, ever.
The only 100% safe medication is the one from your pharmacist with your name on the label.
In a town of 100, 000 there were 77 deaths attributed to Fentanyl poisoning last year and Wichita County set the precedence by charging and convicting a dealer for murder due to the death of someone he sold pressed pills to.
I'm not sure it's a conspiracy or a Army cover-up as much as Cam possibly took what what she thought was a Xanax for her nerves because of the marital problems and missing spouse concerns and she was poisoned to death.
Not saying that I don't have thoughts about the fort and all of the weird coincidence or whatever with Craig disappearing and family finding him so easily.
Me too...let her rest peacefully, whatever the circumstances of her death were.I hope that Cam’s husband has the decency to provide a burial.
Coming from an institutionally homophobic country myself and with a family background that's the same I hope that the mother gets blown into the weeds by younger generations with her 19th century outlook on life.If his mother allows it. IMO
Let's say some pills get through the Port of Entry at Laredo. Those pills could be in the Killeen/Fort Cavazos area in 6 hours via IH 35.These pressed pills are coming from Mexico across the Texas border and killing thousands of people a day in our nation.
Occams Razor: I'm leaning towards accidental (MOO). Divorce looming, husband disappears, no money, no food. No surprise that someone in this situation might turn to street drugs, or perhaps someone offered her something that looked totally legit.I think this was either accidental or a suicide. She was very stressed out and sounded terribly helpless.
It's a 21st century outlook among some groups, sadly, like the newly elected speaker of the House of Representatives.Coming from an institutionally homophobic country myself and with a family background that's the same I hope that the mother gets blown into the weeds by younger generations with her 19th century outlook on life.
I wonder where the pills came from originally. Certainly not impossible they came from Mexico, could be manufactured in Central Texas as well. It sounds like the distribution was mostly concentrated in the Central Texas area, but not sure where they originated.Let's say some pills get through the Port of Entry at Laredo.

A huge haul of fentanyl precursors were interdicted at the Laredo Port of Entry recently, so yes, there are illegal manufacturing operations in the US.I wonder where the pills came from originally. Certainly not impossible they came from Mexico, could be manufactured in Central Texas as well.
I just posted similar comment.Fort Cavazos WIKI: "Currently, Fort Cavazos has nearly 65,000 soldiers and family members and serves as a home for the following units: Headquarters III Corps; First Army Division West; the 1st Cavalry Division; 13th Sustainment Command (formerly 13th Corps Support Command); 89th Military Police Brigade; 504th Battlefield Surveillance ...
Basically a mid-sized city.
This is where I am at now as well. I can see it either way. I don't have any reason to think that Cam was abusing fentanyl, but even if she dabbled with other drugs and never touched fentanyl itself, it's mixed secretly into SO many things these days. As per the University of Colorado Boulder, fentanyl is often ingested unknowingly by people when it is added to substances such as "powders (like cocaine), capsules, pressed pills meant to look like prescription medications like Xanax or Oxy)," and obviously more. 5 things everyone should know about fentanyl If it's ingested by someone without previous usage it can kill SO EASILY in very tiny amounts. Plus, it probably has no relevance here lol (I don't know much about the biological side of things), but Cam didn't appear to be a very large person, so that could make it even easier for it to kill her?I'm on the fence as to whether Cam's overdose was intentional or not. It's easy to unintentionally take an overdose as a friend of mine in British Columbia, Canada found out when her 19 year old son went to a Christmas Eve party and fatally overdosed on fentanyl. With everything going on in Cam's life could someone have said "here take these tablets they'll make you feel better" and poisoned her on purpose. Or could it be that she just got a bad batch of pills? Hard to say.

**…and young men and womenI think the challenges of Fort Cavazos is rooted in the almost impossible task of effectively managing a massive population of 21 year old young men, many of whom are experiencing for the first time being far away from home.
Fort Cavazos is the largest active duty armored services post. The base encompasses a little more than 217k acres, 340 square miles across two different counties of central Texas. It’s home to nearly 65,000 soldiers. The median age of a Fort Cavazos soldier is 21 (compared to 43 in Ukraine).
The population of the entire county (545 square miles) of my hometown is approximately 45k and has a median age of 39.
My comments were based on news articles I’ve read thus far where only male military personnel were identified within the articles as being suspects in the reported crimes. I’m sure there are likely females involved too but haven’t yet seen them identified as being a suspect in a reported crime,**…and young men and women
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.Thanks for sharing this info on overdoses vs poisoning.
JMO, the ongoing battle against the “Opioid Crisis” is possibly creating confusion in the actual risk by the general label of “Opioid” while also causing potential to create false stereotypes.
During the time my Dad, who ultimately passed away, was under Hospice Care, two full weeks passed before he was provided any medication for pain. Similar situation with my Uncle who passed away from Pancreatic Cancer, he was provided no medication for pain (or referral for pain management) until nearly six weeks after diagnosis and following Chemo treatments when he was transferred to Emory in Atlanta suffering severe complications from Radiation treatment.
Again, JMPO, as a nation, we seem to fail at investigating the necessary details of the specific evidence leading to the root cause of a “Crisis” situation. Instead, take the lazy approach of broad sweeping changes- overreacting and overreaching- still fail to enact adequate controls in response to enormous spike in deaths from Fentanyl. Similar situation with quite opposite crisis situations, housing market and mental health.
Just my two cents in response to your welcomed post with details on Fentanyl poisoning .
So sorry for your father and uncle's suffering. This tragically happens often. I worked in the hospice field for a bit, and I would have to advocate strongly for patients to receive pain medications. I mean... Come on. They're dying. They deserve peace! America seems to have difficulties distinguishing between appropriate and inappropriate opiate usage. Pain patients deserve care - street drugs are a different ballgame. Glad to hear your family eventually got pain relief but they waited much too long.Thanks for sharing this info on overdoses vs poisoning.

Great points that I failed to include on the existence of serious issues of addiction just wish there were more effective guidance for pain management. My heart goes out to families experiencing addiction disorders and to those who struggle with addiction.Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
I will add that as unbelievable as this is there are drug addicts who CHOOSE to smoke Fentanyl or inject it.
In my city we have a Subxaone clinic as well as a Methadone clinic due to the people who were over prescribed opioids by their own doctors and the newly addicted due to their personal use.
Thank you for the work you did to provide comfort to families. The hospice nursing staff was amazing, granted they were responding to federal regulatory requirements but the doctors seemed to lacked sense of urgency for ensuring adequate management of pain.So sorry for your father and uncle's suffering.

My prayers for beautiful Cam, and may Craig... recover? heal? whatever he may need. The situation is mysterious.
