service envelope: It had arrived with 10 round, blue pills inside, the markings of pharmaceutical-grade oxycodone stamped onto the surface, according to The Independent. The young man took out two, crushed and snorted them. Lurking on a trash can at the edge of the picture was what prosecutors said delivered this death an ordinary, U.S. Postal Service envelope. But the pills were poison, prosecutors said counterfeits containing fatal grains of fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid that has written a deadly new chapter in the American opioid epidemic. That's where a clean-cut, 29-year-old college dropout and Eagle Scout named Aaron Shamo made himself a millionaire by building a fentanyl trafficking empire with not much more than his computer and the help of a few friends. The envelope was postmarked from the suburbs of Salt Lake City.
