Morris like, doing it at school in the bathroom. Whitaker a syringe . Morris a syringe. I would have it in my purse, all ready to go. Whitaker Jenna Morrison has been off heroin for more than three years. She comes from a town that is smaller and more rural than hannahs. With legal opiates pain pills you can get with a prescription. Chemically, theyre almost identical to heroin. Jenna morrison i got on pain pills pretty bad when i was probably between 15 and 16. Whitaker and the heroin came. Morrison when i was 18. Whitaker was it an easy transition from the pain pills to heroin . Morrison very, because i didnt realize at the time that heroin is an opiate. Was using. Whitaker why were you using all these drugs . Morrison im in a small town. There was nothing to do. And i was hanging out with older people. So, that was our way of having fun, partying. Mike dewine this is the worst drug epidemic ive seen in. In my lifetime. Whitaker mike dewine is the attorney general of ohio. Hes a former u. S. Senator, congressman, and a county prosecutor.

Whitaker dealers with connections to the mexican cartels sell heroin everywhere, even in this Department Store parking lot outside columbus. Hell be coming out of that car right there. Whitaker our cameras captured the purchase of this heroin by an Undercover Police informant. What is this . So this is a couple types of heroin that we see. Whitaker attorney general mike dewines staffers say the mexican heroin can be cheap 10 a hit or less. Some of it is cut with other drugs that make it even more powerful and deadly. And dealers keep inventing new ways to outwit law enforcement. And what do you have here . These are actually tablets. So they are pressed to look like a actual prescription tablet, but they contain heroin. Whitaker heroin in pill form. That look like pills, correct. Whitaker this. This is new. Very new. Weve only seen a few cases in the lab. His days as a county prosecutor; heroin has lost its stigma as a poisonous, back alley drug. Dewine theres no psychological barrier anymore that stops a young person or an older person from taking heroin. Whitaker so, who is the typical heroin user in ohio today . Dewine anybody watching today this show. It could be your family. Theres no typical person. It just has permeated every segment of society in ohio. Whitaker even the wellto do town of pickerington, 30 minutes outside of columbus. Tyler campbell was a star of the High School Football team. He went on to play division one at the university of akron. For tyler, heroin wasnt a party drug. His parents, wayne and christy campbell, say his heroin habit grew from his addiction to opiate painkillers, prescribed legally after he injured his shoulder. Christy campbell it was vicodin. Wayne campbell vicodin. He had 60 vicodin for his shoulder surgery. Whitaker thats a normal prescription . Wayne campbell for that procedure. Whitaker its easy for kids to sell their excess pills. Theyre popular recreational drugs in high schools and colleges, so much in demand that one pill can cost up to 80. Pill addicts like tyler often switch to heroin because its a cheaper opiate with a bigger high. Tyler was in and out of rehab four times. Time, he couldnt fight the uncontrollable urge that is heroin addiction. He shot up in his bedroom and died of a heroin overdose. He wasnt the only addict on his College Football team. Wayne campbell unfortunately, the quarterback died four months after tyler, in 2011, same situation. Christy campbell same accidental overdose. First of all, if you dont talk about it, right . Whitaker after tyler died, the campbells met many families whose children were heroin addicts in the suburbs of pills first. Started with pain pills . Absolutely. Whitaker t. J. And heidi riggs daughter died of a heroin overdose. Marin was a High School Basketball player and captain of her golf team. Lea heidman and Brian Malones daughter alyssa died of an overdose last year. Brenda stewart has two sons in recovery. Tracy morrison is Jenna Morrisons mother, and has a second daughter who is also a recovering addict. Rob brandt he battled it through high school.

Brandt and when he came home, he met up with an old friend that he used to buy and sell Prescription Medications with, and that old friend introduced him to heroin. And we did the. We did rehab, we did relapse, we did rehab, and he got clean. And that was the last time and he passed from an accidental overdose. Whitaker for many of these parents, the hardest thing to accept was losing their children after they thought theyd finally beaten the addiction. Lea heidman she passed away the day after st. Patricks day. And she posted on st. Patricks day a picture of her on her laptop, studying, doing homework, saying, no partying for me, not even a single drink. Im staying in and im. And im working. And the next day she used, and that was the last time she used. Tracy morrison i am a nurse. Whitaker tracy morrison, jennas mother, trained to be a nurse more than 30 years ago. She says the medical profession must bear some responsibility for the heroin epidemic. She says doctors overprescribe pain medications. Tracy morrison i graduated in the 80s. I was a nursing director when we from not treating pain to treat everybodys pain. I was a part of that. And at that time, i had no idea that we were addicting people. Whitaker in 2014, three quarters of a billion pain pills were prescribed by doctors in ohio nearly 65 pills for every man, woman and child in the state. How did you respond when your daughters told you they were using heroin . Tracy morrison well, they first told me they were using the pills, and how i found out they were using heroin was i came home from work one day, made dinner, and i was yelling for my youngest daughter to come for dinner and she didnt. And i walked into her bedroom and her boyfriend was shooting her up. Whitaker you saw this . Tracy morrison i saw it. Whitaker what did you do . Tracy morrison dropped the plate of food. I dropped it. And i was hysterical. Whitaker tracys daughter jenna is 25 now. She knows shes lucky to be addiction, i have been to rehab 17 times, and i had been to jail six or seven times. So every time i went to jail, i got out, went to rehab, came home and relapsed, and then did it all over again. Whitaker you overdosed, as well . Morrison uhhuh. Whitaker how many times . Morrison i only overdosed once, and i woke up in an ambulance. Whitaker jenna would have died if Emergency Medical Technicians hadnt injected her with naloxone hydrochloride, also called narcan. It quickly reverses the effects of opiates in the brain. So this is the kit. Whitaker the heroin problem in ohio is so big, families and friends of addicts not just Health Professionals are being taught to administer narcan, which is now available without a prescription. This is what it looks like. This is the little purple cap, actually is the medication. Tracy morrison this is a hurricane. First, she had no idea her daughters were addicts. Neither did the other parents. But they feel they missed all the signs and let their children down. Do you feel guilty . Every day. Heidi riggs you lost the battle, so youre always going to say, is there something i could have done differently . Is. You know, did. Why didnt i notice it when i had missing spoons that it wasnt because, you know, they left cereal bowls upstairs. It was actually because, you know, she was using them to shoot heroin. But who would have thought our children would ever do heroin . Whitaker all of these to us because too many other families are embarrassed, in denial about their kids heroin use. These parents say the stigma and shame are compounding the epidemic. Heidi riggs no one was talking about that we had heroin in pickerington. And so, for us, we were total shock when it happened. And. But the struggle was the stigma. Brenda stewart never say, not my child. Yeah, right. Brenda stewart because you never know. It could end up being your brian malone you never want to get that call. You never want to get that call. Whitaker the call you got . Brian malone the call you got, and we got the call. Whitaker today, heroin overdoses take the lives of at least 23 people in ohio every week. We were told many other heroin deaths go unreported. Im sure there are some who would be watching this and would say, heroin addicts are junkies and they brought this on themselves, so why should we care . Tracy morrison because we dont throw diabetics who sit on the couch eating bonbons and smoke and they weigh 300 pounds in prison. We dont belittle them, and theres not a big stigma. We dont do that to people that chain smoke and develop lung cancer. Its a chronic, relapsing brain disease, period, amen, end of story. And we need to accept it, even if it makes people uncomfortable. And if people dont like that, good evening, french officials say.

Wheeldon i went to an all boys prep school, and my headmaster was so proud that one of his students had been accepted into this big institution that he announced it in School Assembly one morning. And i still had about six months to go at the school. So my secret was out and it was b it was a pretty it was a pretty hellish laughs six months. Stahl they did tease you. Wheeldon i i was teased, ye white lodge between the ages of 11 and 16. It was competitive and grueling. Students here spend four to five hours a day dancing, and have to reaudition every year. In his time, wheeldon was taught ballet master. Wheeldon he was strict with us. He picked me up by my hair once because i wasnt jumping high enough. It was ug think ill ever forget that. Stahl did you ever want to i really do feel that i was i was meant to be a dancer and and i and i knew that.

Wheeldon it is. But its exhilarating. Can we make this first thing there . Its like you want to go cross. Stahl where do you start . Wheeldon it begins with the music. And then its about making that first brushstroke. Ready . Because it really is like painting. Nice, that was lovely. . . Stahl when youre choreographing, because weve now seen you do it a couple of times, you close your eyes you kind of go away. And when you
