Sam Quinones - The Least of Us: True Tales of America and Hope in the Time of Fentanyl and Meth
Sam Quinones is a Los Angeles-based freelance journalist and an international award-winning author of four books of narrative nonfiction. Quinones’ latest book, The Least of Us: True Tales of America and Hope in the Time of Fentanyl and Meth, will be featured in this FTCoE webinar celebrating National Forensic Science Week. In The Least of Us, Quinones chronicles the emergence of a drug-trafficking world, producing massive supplies of dope cheaper and deadlier than ever and marketing to the population of addicts created by the nation's opioid epidemic, as the backdrop to tales of Americans’ quiet attempts to recover community through simple acts of helping the vulnerable.
This webinar was presented by the NIJ Forensic Technology Center of Excellence on September 21, 2021.
