Fentanyl, Guns, and Murder: Get Ready for a Bloody Summer Rachel M. Cohen © Provided by The Daily Beast Illustration by Elizabeth Brockway/The Daily Beast As millions of vaccinated people emerge from lockdown, returning to shops, bars and restaurants, American life is kicking back into high gear. And in the United States in 2021, that means elected officials and crime experts are bracing for an unusually deadly summer marked by wanton gun violence. But the reasons for and locations of the likely surge in shootings, a trend that began before but has accelerated during the pandemic, are more complicated than the effects of lockdowns or traditional seasonal shifts in urban crime patterns.
