(WMC) - A group of state attorneys general announced a landmark $26 billion deal with drug companies accused of fueling the nation’s deadly opioid epidemic. Tennessee’s Attorney General calls this “the most complicated civil case in American history.” Those in the trenches helping fight drug addiction call the agreement a game changer. “It’s a lot of money and it is a good thing,” said Brian Sullivan with Prevention Alliance of Tennessee. Sullivan knows the statistics all too well. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says 2,170 Tennesseans died of drug overdoses in 2019. The state experienced a huge spike in 2020, recording 3,128 fatal overdoses.
