Fentanyl Nightmare in Kensington | I Witnessed Hell on the Streets of Philly
Cassidy’s story is one of the darkest I’ve ever heard.
She grew up in a good home, loving parents, big family… and still addiction found a way in. One pill turned into daily use… then heroin… then fentanyl… then she ended up in the most dangerous open-air drug market in America — Kensington.
What she experienced there is not normal addiction.
It’s human trafficking. Violence. Rape. Murder. Bodies in the street. Burning victims alive. Trap houses. Dealers beating people for losing product. Young girls disappearing. This is a level of hell that most people in this country will NEVER see.
And she survived it.
Cassidy opens up about overdoses, abusive relationships, jail, street life, losing friends, and the spiritual war that fentanyl brings with it.
She rebuilt her life — and is now sober — and her story will change perspectives for families everywhere struggling to understand addiction.
Watch this entire interview start to finish — share with a parent, sister, brother, someone who needs to know the reality of fentanyl before it’s too late.
Rise Above. Always.
