Fentanyl-laced Heroin from Detroit destroying lives here By Pastor John Chowning Saloma Baptist Church in Taylor County, KY Our local community has recently experienced a rash of drug overdoses resulting in at least one, and maybe two, deaths. A large number of emergency calls were made reporting overdoses in the community. The scourge of substance abuse and drug addiction is rampant in Campbellsville-Taylor County as well as across the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the United States.
