Drug-Induced Homicide Defense Toolkit (2021 edition)

 

In response to the growing overdose crisis, many prosecutors are treating overdose deaths as homicides. Since 2010, prosecutions for drug-induced homicide (also known as drug delivery resulting in death) have increased at least threefold. Criminal defense attorneys and defendants' families have asked for assistance in understanding these cases and how to defend them. This Toolkit is an effort to provide that help.
