San Diego sheriff's department faces blowback over fentanyl video

The San Diego Sheriff’s Office responded to criticism from health experts after it released body camera video appearing to show an officer reeling from a near-death exposure to fentanyl.

The footage released last week shows Deputy David Faiive collapsing to the ground as he struggled to breathe after processing a suspected quantity of narcotics near his vehicle. Frantic deputies administered Narcan, a drug that helps individuals recover from overdoses, and he returned to normal. A tweet that shared the “public safety video” says the deputy almost died from an overdose.
