Abstract

This flier, published by the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences Begun Center for Violence Prevention at Case Western University, provides a graphic explaining drug overdose evidence and how it can lead to large-scale analysis. Such analysis can potentially lead to major drug traffickers. The graphic provides a flow-chart-like illustration moving from cell-phone exploitation to drug evidence and successful prosecution. Details are provided for each stage.
