Renee Graziano, star of the reality show Mob Wives, nearly died from a fentanyl overdose after unknowingly taking what she believed to be cocaine.
She said she was depressed and “gave up”, seeking drugs to cope.
“Everything in my life was falling apart,” she said. “Nobody wanted to talk to me… Everything just started piling up. I gave up.”
After ingesting the fentanyl-laced substance, she died in a restaurant but was revived after being intubated for three days and learning to walk again over nine days in the hospital.
“Someone gave me a bag of fentanyl… when it was supposed to be cocaine,” Graziano said.
“I died in a restaurant in Florida. I was dead,” she added. “I was intubated for three days. … And I spent nine days learning how to walk again.”
Much of the fentanyl entering the US originates from China and is trafficked by Mexican cartels across the open southern border.
Experts have stated that Chinese operations, not Mexican cartels, are primarily responsible for the fentanyl poisoning 100,000 Americans annually.
Fentanyl is a “Chinese operation much more than it is a Mexican drug cartel operation,” author Peter Schweizer said.
“A lot of the people involved in the fentanyl trade actually have senior positions in the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] or they’re advisers to the CCP government, but the links in this chain of fentanyl that is poisoning 100,000 Americans, every link in that chain is a Chinese operation,” Schweizer said, noting that cartels are “really the junior partners.”
Several Hollywood celebrities have died from accidental fentanyl overdoses, including pop star Prince and Pawn Stars cast member Rick Harrison’s son Adam.
